PROCEDURE TO FLASH eMMC

[Radioman]

I cannot seem to access it.  Is it dead?

No, don't despair

Is there any hope?

It take just a a small procedure, see this post or even better the entire thread.
Or you may install the Armbian u-boot, included in the zip file, whether you plan to install Armbian mode.

Code:

$ sudo dd if=rk3288_boot.bin of=/dev/<kernel_name> bs=512 seek=64  ## or
$ sudo dd if=u-boot-rockchip-with-spl.bin of=/dev/<kernel_name> bs=512 seek=64

If you plan to use ELAR or TinkerOS, then you should copy the u-boot from the TinkerOS included in the zip file.

Code:

$ sudo dd if=tOS.img of=/dev/<kernel_name> bs=512 seek=64

Im4Tinker,  You have the patience of Job!  Thank you for your help and encouragement.  I believe that you have provided the answer to my problem.  As a Noobie, I have a final (maybe ) question.  How do I find what the "kernel_name" is?  I have looked on the ELAR site, nothing there.  It must be known to those of you who have the experience in Linux.  Thanx again,  Joe
