- The only led on the board is a power LED, it starts to light as soon as power is available and does not indicate anything else.
- DC-IN via Micro USB, keep in mind that most USB cables have a resistance way too high which leads to undervoltage situations. It is recommended to power your Pine64(+) through the Euler pins (see linux-sunxi wiki for details).
- If you clone one Armbian installation for more than one Pine64 please keep in mind that the Ethernet MAC address will be chosen randomly on first boot and then saved in
/boot/uEnv.txt. To avoid MAC address collisions you must adjust the address there or delete the wholeethaddrline. - If you use a DVI display don’t forget to define
disp_dvi_compat=1in/boot/armbianEnv.txt - Pine64’s own LCD with touchscreen support can simply be activated in
/boot/armbianEnv.txtby settingpine64_lcd=onand addinggt9xxf_tsto/etc/modulesfollowed by a reboot.
Debian Bookworm 24.8.1 minimal testing:
- Boot from sdcard and eMMC (only from SD card, didn't test emmc) OK
- HDMI is ok OK
- USB2 ports are ok OK
- Gigabit Etherner is ok, Tested on LAN with scp, likely limited by SD card speed (100% 1949MB 17.8MB/s 01:49)
- Wireless ok, (stable but slow, ~5Mbps/s but router is far away as well)
- Analog audio codec does not work (I did not check audio codec)
- Reboot and shutdown work as intended
