Linux for Amlogic S802 \ S812

[Kentril]

I've tried booting from SD Card with my MXIII 4k S802 - It seems it has tendency booting from SD card, but then only black screen. Once I managed to see LibreElec Logotype. Does it matter wich build I have on internal memory? I have Teamwin recovery. Thank you

I have 2 boxes:
1. Mxiii-g ( mxiii-c 2gb / 16gb ) fully working with fw 202 L1
2. Mxiii 4k unresurected yet, red light is the only light, with 2% stucked on writting the image on nand... but i collected a dozen of different .img files to find a solution..so, recovery is on progress...

Update images.

Test alpha images. The main purpose - a basic assessment of health schedules (a bunch of the kernel + dtb). To check system startup you need to activate the multi-boot (all required files included in the images). On my sample s812 activation multi-boot is possible only with SD card, maybe on other devices it works with USB. After activating a multi-boot system running from USB (I'm running every test with USB flash drives). Please check the possibility of launching on the platform s802. Pay attention - the system must copy the appropriate dtb file with the name "dtb.img".
