Firstly, thank you loboris for the Debian image. It made the board actually usable.
About the non- ...

Thank you very much!
There was CONFIG_ANDROID_PARANOID_NETWORK=y set in Linux config. I've disabled it and recompiled the kernel and now everything is working as it should.
I don't know how I forgot it. And I've had similar problem with RK3188 kernel.

Update
  • problem with Internet access solved
  • some small improvements
  • images for OrangePI-PLUS uploaded, please try (I don't have plus to try)

Warning
Uploaded images have the wrong scripts for desktop instalation (install_lxde_desktop & install_mate_desktop).
Please download desktop-scripts.tar.gz from Mega, unpack and replace the scripts in /usr/local/bin
Check that they are executable.
Sorry fo that.

@loboris for opi plus you need to patch the kernel and for u-boot make it with script.bin support it's simpler for end-user to change script.bin then to rebuild u-boot.

orangepi plus, olinuxino A20, cubieboard A10, mele A2000 .....

Thank you, I'll try that later.
For now, I've uploaded the images for OrangePI-PLUS (with u-boot built with OPI-PLUS fex).

Hint:
If you don't get lightdm login screen after installing the desktop, please do the following:
(You can do it immediately after running instal_lxde|mate_desktop, just in case)

  • login to console (Ctrl+Alt+F1)
  • run:
  • sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg --purge
  • sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg
  • sudo reboot

I'm, using my own config. I've added some drivers (I need USB serial adapters support & btrfs support e.g.)
I also had to replace included rootfs.cpio.gz.

I just tried both ubuntu and debian images.  Harwire networking does not work on either (Have not tried wireless).

Ubuntu gives an error about eht0 hardware initialization error.

Mark.

Have you downloaded the right image for your board (there are separate images for OPI-2 and OPI-PLUS).
I only have OPI-2, I've not tested OPI-PLUS (but when I boot with PLUS image on OPI-2 I don't get ethernet).
Whe you run ifconfig, you must get something like this:

orangepi@OrangePI:~$ ifconfig
