I know this is a month old,  but what I found is that if you are connecting via wifi on the OPi Zero and signal
strength is weak, all activity freezes.
I would suggest using ethernet or if possible move the OPi closer to your router.
Changing the wifi channel can also help

Same problem, but found solution on the forum http://www.orangepi.org/orangepi ... viewthread&tid=2692
drazvan says: The sound driver is causing that, do a "sudo apt-get purge –auto-remove alsa-utils" on the first boot and then subsequent boots will work. That is unless you need sound, I have no solution for that yet.

While logged first time, delete the alsa-utils sound support package. It worked for me.  The i96 board has no audio I/O, so this package is really unnecessary.

Manual suggests to configure wifi and then use ssh for subsequent logging, but somehow cryptic is description, how to find the board's IP address using two smartphones. I succeeded by more conventional "ifconfig" command .

After you have configured wifi and enabled ssh server, "ping" from the board to the router. Board connects to the router and gets assigned IP address. Then do "ifconfig" and you can see the board's IP address on the screen. Now you can log to the board over wifi by the PuTTY (ssh mode) or other terminal. Even better is changing wifi configuration to use static IP address, so board's IP address stays allways the same.

I had the same problem.

Similarly, my solution is to mount the fresh SDCARD image (Ubuntu or Debian) before installing into the i96


  dd if=OrangePi_i96_ubuntu_xenial_server_linux3.10.62_v0.0.4.img of=/dev/sdo status=progress
  mount /dev/sd<n>2 <mount point>
  cd <mount point>
  find -name '*alsa*' -delete
  rm -rf usr/share/alsa
  rm -rf usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/alsa-lib
  cd
  umount <mount point>

The go ahead an install the SDCARD into the i96. After that, multiple reboot should work fine.  Eventually, you should do the
  1. apt-get purge alsa-utils
Copy code
to make sure the apt cache is consistent.

While we're ripping out code, the boot image has lots of stuff dealing with the 'modem' which exists on the 2iot version, but doesn't exist here. Can we rip it out? I tried removing it from /boot/boot.cmd (and boot.scr) but no luck.

Many thanks for this fix!

I am aware that this was posted a year ago, but what I have discovered is that all activity comes to a halt on the OPi Zero if you are connecting to the internet via wifi and the signal strength is weak.
