no sign of life on the board

BrianBeuken

Just recieved my Pi PC2 today, and burned an SD with the Debian XFCE Image, but I get nothing.

There is power flowing through the unit as my USB hub with my keyboard and mouse attached has an LED that is lighting up, but nothing on the board, no signs of life at all..

Any advice? Should I be doing something different from the usual plug in HDMI, Network.USB then 5v power unit (PSP unit)?

On this post you can find proper downloads

-> PC2 (H5) Downloads

When you go into the download site, enter into the OrangePi_PC2 folder to get any of the images that have been released so far.

Use the Armbian image from https://www.armbian.com/. I could not get any of the images provided by Orange PI to work on my Orange PI PC. After a lot of frustrating hours, burned the Armbian image and not only did it boot up for the first time, the status led was green the entire time.

Can you give a direct link, the Ambrian site does not seem to have an OrangePi PC 2 image?

I had the same problem - but the newest images work now. Still some issues if you want to use a web browser but I am sure that will be resolved soon. Other than that I am impressed by how smooth everything runs consider how new it is.

well the download section for OPi PC2 has no gmail links that work....really very poor management of the site.
