You don't mention what your device is but a change in the .dtb won't
fix the lack of display, there's a complete lack of driver,
Yes my wording could have been better.
Changing the .dtb was only about getting the device to boot as I
realise hdmi is not yet ready.
The device is a Rikomagic MK802II. Booting it headless with 3.17 is
my aim but the soldering job for a serial console is a challenge
beyond my soldering skills - see
http://www.rikomagic.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2488
so am hoping some-one with a compatible device such as Mele A1000
or CB1 could develop an image. A howto for the build and to get
wireless configured for an ssh connection is an alternative.
You could just try booting without serial console if you provide
--norootpass on building the SD card. SSHD permits logging in as
root, just don't do this on the Internet, as you are sitting wide open!
I think I would need to manually configure and select my local
network SSID and passphrase to get it on the network so I can ssh to
it. A new world for me under systemd.
After first boot, you can see what interface name it used, the create
an appropriate ifcfg- file. They still work.
Thinking about the firstboot script the only really needed things it
does is set the timezone and root password. You can add your user
after logging in as root.
I would suspect that if no serial console, it just comes up as ready
as possible. All you need is your WiFi to be working; that is a
pretty big assumption. You might have to get a supported ethernet
dongle.
As above.
What has happened in booting without a serial console so far?
I am running blind so I either see a new connection open up when I do
an nmap search from my PC or more likely there is no new connection
for the reasons I mention. The real trick is to know if I have even
had a successful boot.
What else are you going to do right now but try?
So on my attempts using Fedora-LXDE-armhfp-21-5-sda.raw.xz written to
the sdcard using the manual instructions here
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F21/Installation
including writing the appropriate u-boot to the media
and setting up wpa using tips from
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/WpaSupplicant with edits of
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf and
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0
I don't believe the boot is getting very far as messages in /var/log is
empty.
Maybe because I am not yet logged in. Tried setting autologin in
lxdm.conf.
Still tryin' stuff.
