I’m trying to get Manjaro running on the Orange Pi 4 LTS. I’ve tried the Plasma image as well as the Minimal image (both 23.02). Either way, it reports this on the serial console and stops:
I figured it out. Booted Ubuntu from the SD, copied it to the eMMC and suddenly Manjaro boots from the SD.
I would like to find out why, though. Does installing an officially supported Linux to the eMMC change the bootloader? Or does it create a boot partition on the eMMC that then chains to the SD card?
There was an Android image on eMMC (which came pre-flashed with the board).
Unfortunately, I have since run into a new problem. I’ve had Manjaro up and running and then updated everything I could using pamac. Since then, it doesn’t boot anymore, but doesn’t give any error messages, it just sits at a black screen with a blinking cursor. I’m going to reset the SD with the official image and see if I can reproduce this issue.
I’m on the stable branch, there is no Plasma 6 yet.
But I think I found the problem. I did the upgrade with pacman this time, and at the very end of the upgrade, the creation of initramfs fails with “module not found: rtc_rk808”. There is an initramfs-linux.img on the BOOT_MNJRO partition, but I assume it is corrupted.
