as a PC user i struggle to find a working image for my Odroid N2.
As far as i understand the methods to create an image i have to on Linux for this.
Would someone be so nice to prepare an Image for my Odroid N2 for me? On the officiall site i can find several images, but not for my N2 and the generic image won’t boot.
list your devices once more - note the added device
sudo pacman -Syy
sudo pacman -S manjaro-arm-installer
sudo systemctl restart systemd-binfmt
sudo bash manjaro-arm-installer
select device
select target sdcard (be sure you choose the sdcard)
follow the prompts to setup your target system desktop/user/passwd/root
wait until done
reboot
I just build an image directly to an sdcard - but as the installer customizes the final image - the image would be of no use to you because you likely want another timezone, locale, keyboard, hostname, username, password etc.
==> on2 kde-plasma install complete
==> Writing bootloader and cleaning up after install...
-> Set boot partition to 44c0af76-01 in /etc/fstab...
-> Set root partition to 44c0af76-02 in the relevant boot script and /etc/fstab...
-> If you get an error stating 'failed to preserve ownership ... Operation not permitted', it's expected, since the boot partition is FAT32 and does not support ownership permissions...
==> Time : 14.42 minutes...
Images for the Odroid N2 and N2+ are no longer generated, because the Generic images work for it. As the N2 and N2+ comes with an SPI flash, you can flash tow-boot on it.
For any other interested with the same problem… here is a “quick and dirty” Solution.
I took the former Image “Manjaro-ARM-kde-plasma-on2-21.02.img.xz” from HERE and updated to the newest Version.
Got some trouble with some Icon-Resource from Theme, but as i ignored this part from update the update could be done.
It’s the firmware. Like u-boot and petit-boot that is currently on the SPI of the N2.
Petit-boot just doesn’t load the extlinux.conf file that the Generic images use. And I don’t think it loads the generic-efi images at all. That’s why we suggest using tow-boot instead.
