Hello Loboris,

You make my PLUS alive, I was about to bury it when I found out that the official software support sucks. Now it just misses the GPU driver, which is nice compared to official images. With install_to_emmc script, I can reuse my sd card for something else and makes the emmc usable.

One thing that bugs me is that `install_to_emmc btrfs` doesn't seem to work well on my PLUS (`install_to_emmc` only works fine). There are many problems but the main one is due to the btrfs partition being mounted read only, that makes lightdm, logs and some other services failed to start. Upon looking at /etc/fstab, it's marked as ext4 partition, is this correct or wrong?

EDIT:
I see that desktop scripts are updated a day after the images, will try the latest install_to_emmc script. The diff looks correct.

Memory is shared with gpu.
You have ~1003MB memory available (on boards with 1GB RAM).
I don't think it is possible to disable gpu memory usage.
If you need more memory there is (will be) Orange PI-PLUS2 with 2GB of memory.
You can select monitor resolution copying the desired script.bin.* to script.bin (hdmi)
You can use hdmi->vga adapter to connect to VGA monitor.
install_to_emmc always uses the  whole eMMC.

It will work with new script. Sorry for the bug in the old script.
@raid3868
I looks like you also used the old install_to_emmc script. Please replace the line which mounts / in fstab with:
  1. /dev/mmcblk0p2  /  btrfs subvolid=0,noatime,nodiratime,compress=lzo  0 1
Copy code
that way linux partition will be mounted with compress option.
It is fast (maybe faster than without it on slow drives) and saves lot of space.

Install scripts updated:

  • added option to install_lxde_desktop to install Lubuntu core package, so you can get real Lubuntu look (without it pure LXDE is installed). Can be used only on Ubuntu distribution.
    1. sudo install_lxde_desktop lubuntu
    Copy code
  • added script to install x2goserver
    1. sudo install_x2goserver
    Copy code
  • Download desktop_scripts.tar.gz, unpack to /usr/local/bin.
