Anyone successfully building Trusty from loboris's github: https://github.com/loboris/OrangePi-BuildLinux

It looks like uboot and kernel come up but init is dying for me:
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000100

I want to roll my own for customizations and to make a crossbuild environment...

I tried the Vivid image (prepackaged by loboris, not built by me) and it is working fine.

When I install_to_emmc btrfs, system will not boot to GUI. Install without btrfs works. I finally noticed that failed boot was the same as when I was fighting with different sd card...changing sd card fixed boot, not using btrfs fixed emmc boot...
Latest Ubuntu Mate, (not for PC) Plus image, script.bin and lib from latest scriptbin tar (not test). lib in fat partition. Created on windows10 system.

Still no WiFi device found. /etc/modules-load.d modules.conf contains 8189es (only item in list without one or two # at start of line.

How do I get permission to change/rename script.bin etc from within GUI file viewer? (or how, exactly, do I find it from terminal? (distant second choice)).

Thanks.

I had the same issue with install_to_emmc btrfs. I noticed that btrfs was mounted read only. This is why the GUI won't come up. I didn't bother to debug it though since ext4 works fine.

I`ve tried twice, but nothing changes. If module is not blacklisted message "rtl8192cufw.bin not avaliable" continue to appears.
When blacklisted message is gone, but there no wi-fi in system.

The btrfs in the lichee kernel (3.4) is unstable, so, the disk format may have been changed in newer kernels.So, either don't use btrfs, or create (and use) the btrfs partitions from the OPI itself. But, care, in this last case, there may still be problems with the btrfs external tools...
