PCIe fails to initialize on Orange PI 5

fenrirjk

Hi,

I received an Orange Pi 5 and I could not use the NVMe SSD.

I tried with

• Orangepi5_1.0.2_debian_bullseye_server_linux5.10.110.7z
• Orangepi5_1.0.6_ubuntu_focal_server_linux5.10.110.7z with the same result.
  

After some investigation I noticed that tthe PCIe fails to initialize with:

1. $ cat dmesg.txt | grep rk-pcie

Copy code

This happens with or without the NVMe SSD plugged in.

Here is the full dmesg log: https://pastebin.com/4UZ03yAP

Please tell me if this is a software or hardware issue and how to fix this.

Thanks.

Similar issue with an odroid M1 board: https://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?t=45605

The guy had to use another board.

Can someone confirm this is a hardware issue ?

Okay, my issue was that I am using a M.2 SATA SSD (not M.2 PCIe SSD).

See: https://github.com/orangepi-xunlong/orangepi-build/issues/53 for more details.

Edit: I managed to boot from my M.2 SATA SSD.

How on earth did you do that? You're booting from an non NVME SSD?


I'm really suffering here, I think I've tried everything.

I tried to:
*overwrite the SPI flash with nand-sata-install
*create identical partitions on SD and SSD with same UUID's
*set overlays=ssd-sata in the orangepiEnv.text

I can see and use the SSD, but I can't find any way to boot from it.
