- The experiment has been successful: use software such as rufus to burn armbian into a USB flash drive, insert the usb disk to the box, restart the box, and I will boot the armbian operating system in the USB flash drive. Then I can install armbian.
- The fault phenomenon is that, burn CoreELEC-Amlogic.arm-9.2.8-Generic.img or CoreELEC-Amlogic-ng.arm-21.2-Omega-Generic.img into the USB flash drive, put dtb.img into the root directory, and also insert it to box and restart, but it will not boot the coreelec system in the USB flash drive. And even if you use adb to trigger the line flash, or short-circuit the emmc, I will not boot the os of lash after restarting.
- According to my experiment: the github version of coreelec cannot be loaded with usb_burning_tool. I know that someone have recompiled the coreelec firmware that can be loaded by usb_burning_tool, which can be flashed by line.
I feel that uboot knows to start the system from the USB disk, after all, if the USB disk is armbian, it can be started. The problem may be that there is a problem with the USB disk version of coreelec? I wonder if friends have encountered similar problems with “installing coreelec from a USB disk”? Are there any solutions or ideas?
Nope.
You installed armbian.
There was an issue in the past, after installation of armbian the uboot was modified and it was impossibel to install coreelec.
Hint:
Coreelec images are not able to be flashed with usb burning tool
