Linux for Amlogic S802 \ S812

[Kentril]

To run the system you need to manually copy it to the root of the media the correct dtb file with the name "dtb.img" .

I've tried renaming and compying files from dts folder, but no luck. Maybe I have different HW - S802, it's k200

Send me the dtb file from Your firmware (with which TV box is powered, LE or Android)

Thank you, I followed you instructions and it was working. I think by NAND memory is corrupted, because all is working until I power it off. I need Android to be run directly from SD card. As balbes150 describes. I think this thread is about it.

How to determine dtb file?
I followed this instructions:

http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player-support/amlogic-based-tv-players/s905/tronsmart-ac/firmware-roms-tools-at/565449-running-linux-from-sd-card-or-usb-flash-drive-using-balbes150-method-and-files

Burn SD card, rename one file from dts dir and copy into root of SD Card.
run Android and update it from aml_autoscript
restart

is this good procedure? If I want to try another dts file just rename it and boot again? or make aml_update?

I have k200

Thank you

You may try all files. To repeat the activation is not necessary (it is saved until the flashing device new firmware when replacing the boot loader u-boot).

I've tried all files with the same result. I could see this screen for 5 seconds and then no video signal.

[balbes150]

The startup process is long, need to wait for system start up 5 minutes or more (at this time, the monitor will read "no signal").

Good news. After few mins with first dts file system booted up! Seems network card has trouble, but when I get home I look at it closely. I think no sound is playd during test video. Does it support CEC protocol?

[balbes150]

CEC is not working.

Hi everyone
Kentril - do you have M8 Box (k200) with 2 GB RAM? I have the same device and problem with activating multiboot and with boot.

Burn SD card, rename one file from dts dir and copy into root of SD Card.

1. Which application you use to burn your SD card?
2. What size of SD card you used?

run Android and update it from aml_autoscript

3. Did you get any warnings after this step? For me it's going to recovery and displays "Footer is wrong" etc.
4. Could you boot Armbian from both SD and USB flash?

Really appreciate to answer this questions. Thanks.
