I got my Odroid-XU yesterday. But did not have much time to do any thing with it because I had to go to work. But it booted up the Android real good and fast.
Today I wanted to put the "Offical Ubuntu Server" on it. Here is what I did on a Ubuntu PC I have.
Code: Select all
root@ubuntu:/host/ubuntu/Odroid-XU# md5sum -c linaro_ubuntu_server_13.07_armhf_odroidxu_20130827_HDMI.img.xz.md5sum
linaro_ubuntu_server_13.07_armhf_odroidxu_20130827_HDMI.img.xz: OK
root@ubuntu:/host/ubuntu/Odroid-XU# xz -d linaro_ubuntu_server_13.07_armhf_odroidxu_20130827_HDMI.img.xz
root@ubuntu:/host/ubuntu/Odroid-XU# dd bs=1M if=linaro_ubuntu_server_13.07_armhf_odroidxu_20130827_HDMI.img of=/dev/sdb

Put the 8GB eMMC in my new Odroid-XU and it don't boot. I did this on the 8GB eMMC that went to my Odroid-U2 that don't stay up for more then a day.
In the RS232 all I get is some one letter. I guess from the powering it on. But nothing.
I put the eMMC back in that came with it and it boots up Android real fast and works.
I don't know what is wrong.
I got the eMMC back in my Ubuntu desktop and here is how it mounted it.
Code: Select all
/dev/sdb1 129039 9533 119506 8% /media/BOOT
/dev/sdb2 5544548 734776 4528124 14% /media/rootfs
root@ubuntu:/host/ubuntu/Odroid-XU#
If I go to /media/BOOT is looks like this:
Code: Select all
root@ubuntu:/host/ubuntu/Odroid-XU# cd /media/BOOT
root@ubuntu:/media/BOOT# ls
boot-hdmi-1080.scr boot-hdmi-720.scr boot.scr uInitrd zImage
root@ubuntu:/media/BOOT# ls -l
total 6804

-rw-r--r-- 1 rday rday 5070064 Aug 27 21:05 zImage
root@ubuntu:/media/BOOT#
It looks OK to me.
I can only guess I downloaded the wrong server code.
