Cannot install debian to rockpro64

Hello! I'm having a problem with installing debian onto emmc on my rockpro64 device. I can only get so far and the process fails. First of all I'm using the newer bookworm debian installer for the rockpro64. I can write the two images as stated in the "README.concatenateable_images" file s...

Raspberry pi debian images

Hello all :-) ! Was just wanting to ask one quick question here -- is there going to be an image file for the raspberry pi zero 2 w? I see images for all the other pis but not the zero 2 w. The image for the pi 3 dosen't quite work on the zero 2 w as it uses slightly different hardware than the pi 3...

Re: Stuttery audio in buster/kde

Decided to give a behringer UCA202 usb sound card a go instead of on-board audio. Just trying it now but it looks like no problems with this external device as opposed to the onboard audio.

Re: Stuttery audio in buster/kde

Well I gave aplay -L a go and I can confirm the chipset is ALC892. It's a realtek chipset and I have the firmware-realtek package already insalled.

I did try the tsched=0 suggestion on that page but it did not work I still have the same problem.

Stuttery audio in buster/kde

Hello all! I'm having a bit of a problem when using debian buster and kde plasma and playing back audio. Sometimes whenever I play a video file (for example with VLC) or an audio file for a few seconds the audio will break up for several seconds before stabilising. Here is an example file to illustr...

Re: Debian "forgets" ide controller after install

Reinstalled, but still have the same problem. However I did notice 'something' possibly maybe going wrong during install somewhere around 5% on base install. But I was unable to see what it said (the installer carried on installing btw) it was quite literally a "blink-and-you'll-miss it" m...

Re: Debian "forgets" ide controller after install

Switched back to 'old' hard drive and gave modprobing sd_mod.ko a try but still nothing even after modprobing pata-sis x.x . Will wipe this install and re-install and see if that fixes anything although I don't remember the installer coming back with any missing files or errors during installation. ...

Re: Debian "forgets" ide controller after install

Ok, this odd! I did another debian install on a different hard drive - only this time the only difference was that I used 'expert mode' and did not install a PAE kernel. And the system seems to have booted ok from the hard drive. The kenel reported by uname -r is "4.9.0-7-686", and not &qu...

Re: Debian "forgets" ide controller after install

Random thought: With regards to the kernel that debian installed and the install cd the only difference is that the cd's kernel isn't pae, whereas the kernel debian installed is pae. Maybe my PC dosen't like this? (debian install cd == 4.9.0.7-686, installed kernel == 4.9.0.7-686-pae) . Maybe there'...

Re: Debian "forgets" ide controller after install

That's really weird then as these files are what debian installed. The initramfs prompt I'm getting from there is what happens if I try to boot normally (directly from the hard drive, not the cd). Really confused as from within the initramfs (which in turn is running busybox) uname -r returns "...

Re: Debian "forgets" ide controller after install

Understood and I think I had the wrong module in any case, "all_generic_ide" - ! I rebooted with the debian installer cd and went into rescue mode and executed "lspci -k". That said that the module 'pata_sis' was being used. So I rebooted normally (and dropped again back into ini...

Re: Debian "forgets" ide controller after install

Ok I gave that a go and updated the initramfs but it still didn't seem to want to work. /proc/modules while in the initramfs still just shows 4 modules listed and no sign of the module all_generic_ide . Not sure why it isn't working -- I wonder what the installer's kernel and initramfs do differentl...

Re: X Acceleration on Cubox-i4 pro

Thought I'd put an update here after trying all this again. I am not sure btw if the kernel source/includes are needed or not.

However I did find this patch which stops that fourcc error message. I tried using that patch and it managed to compile the driver.

Re: Debian installer on banana pi

I've not yet tried installing debian with the installer per se yet, but I did finally manage to get it to start. It turns out the installer dosen't output to the HDMI port but you need to use the serial port on the banana pi. And there's 3 pins on the machine to connect to - it needs a serial to USB...

From what I have read, the zero and zerow are both armel devices, just like the older raspberry pi devices. The newer pi 2 and 3 are both armhf. I understand that rasp...
