Orange Pi Lite wifi device

Edited by nopnop2002 at 2016-5-21 14:12

I have received Orange Pi Lite today.
I use Debian_jessie_mini.img, but a wifi device isn't found.
$ uname -a

Does anyone know a countermeasure?

Thank you for your answer.
I searched for my script.fex, but SDIO wasn't found.
I think that present 8189 drivers isn't supporting this chip (8189ftv).

If you don't have a HDMI monitor, It's necessary to install Armbian and update package useing OPI-ONE.

It's possible to find an IP address of OPI-ONE using netdiscover installed in other RPI.

$ sudo apt-get install netdiscover
$ sudo netdiscover -r 192.168.1.0/24
You can login via SerialConsole with this step.
The following operation is performed by the root user.

(1) Backup of boot.cmd

# cp -p /boot/boot.cmd /boot/boot.cmd.org

(2) Edit boot.cmd

# vi /boot/boot.cmd

before

setenv bootargs "console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 rootwait ......
after
setenv bootargs "console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 rootwait

(3) build in boot.scr
# mkimage -C none -A arm -T script -d /boot/boot.cmd /boot/boot.scr
Image Name:
Created:      Wed Jun1 14:42:43 2016
Image Type:   ARM Linux Script (uncompressed)
Data Size:    2388 Bytes = 2.33 kB = 0.00 MB
Load Address: 00000000
Entry Point:00000000
Contents:
   Image 0: 2380 Bytes = 2.32 kB = 0.00 MB

And reboot.
You can log in useing SerialConsole.

After this, you move SD - CARD from OPI-ONE to OPI-Lite.
You can login via SerialConsolein OPI-Lite.
and do a setup of wifi useing OPI-Lite.

I found the following image.

Armbian_5.13_Orangepilite_Debian_jessie_3.4.112.raw

http://mirror.igorpecovnik.com/

At this moment,There are no links to this image in a download page of Armbian .
This image can use SerialConsole without any change.
Built in wifi works fine.
