    Draco / Rikomagic Linux Firware

    Hi,

    Is there any Linux firmware or image which will support 4GB Ram and 32GB Nand .
    I tried using many images of Ubuntu available so far and also one shared by Rikomagic Support guys , but none of those showed me 4GB Ram and I guess it uses only 8GB partition.

    Below is the mail which I received from Rikomagic Support guys

    Hello,Dear:Pls download MK80 linux FW:




    tools/instruction can be download here:

    I have no idea why it shouldn't support 4GB RAM (but I only have a 2GB version)....

    Because of the partition size (BTW: 5GB), I only know a way if you use it at SD Card (because you have to work at the partition table and I never tried to use another way via one of the parameter files at the eMMC/NAND)...

    If you think you are fit enough, I can show you the way, how you are able to manipulate the MBR/MPT with sfdisk via another Linux system at this SD Card version to expand it to the whole SD Card http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.p...l=1#post282855

      No spam I can't get screen size to be right. It's always oversized in the desktop unlike android you can use slide bar to adjust how can I change so fits the TV screen. It works I can see icons on side cut in half but bottom and top cut off.

      Would be great if I could also launch from SD card but doesn't work in card program.
      Many devices now mk902ii/Shield/Mk68 /Ugoos/neox5/minix5 (yes they still work lol) mk80 no it doesnt work lol.

        Sorry, I use overscan off at tv, but I think there is no screen scale at the linux at the moment...

        That's why we use an already build SD image...

            Use Win32Disk Imager, I have tried with this for 16GB version and is working fine for me.

              Hi,

              I have received below response from the Rikomagic Guys, looks RAM is issue within Linux.

              HI,Inayath:
              I have asked some other technical partner in Linux,their suggestion as below:
              You can tell the customer they should be able to access the missing storage by doing the followin
              # install disk utility
              sudo apt-get install gnome-disk-utility
              # run disk utility
              gnome-disks
              then click on partition 1 and format it to ext4
              after that you should have a large partition for storing data etc
              ——
              I think the RAM issue is much more complicated
              best to ask allwinner about this (yes,i have passed to Allwinner already)
              I made a forum post about the disk size problem:
