So I've followed these instructions and it seems that I the eMMC got
flashed. But when I boot now, the system hangs at the stage where the
penguin is displayed on a connected screen.
Using a TTL serial cable, I observed this output during startup:
Begin: Loading essential drivers ... done.
Begin: Running /scripts/init-premount ... done.
Begin: Mounting root file system ... Begin: Running /scripts/local-top
... done.
Begin: Waiting for root file system ... done.
Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
- Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
- Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
- Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT! /dev/mmcblk1p2 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
I guess the device names are set up wrong now, and /dev/mmcblk1p2 should
really be /dev/mmcblk0p2?
I couldn't find any instructions as to how to set up the debian
distribution properly before flashing in order to avoid this problem. Is
this something that init-eMMC-flasher-v3.sh is supposed to handle, but
didn't?
Regards,
