ODROID N2+ don't boot

[Hadramos]

Describe the issue you are experiencing

Hello,

I received my ODROID N2+ with 64GB eMMC Module N2 and I did a fresh install of Home Assistant with this link.

https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/odroid

My ODROID does not boot, I have this message:

Card did not respond to voltage select! : -110
unable to select a mode : -5
MMC Device 2 not found
no mic device at slot 2

However the module works perfectly when I use the USB adapter and connect it to my Linux Debian.

I have configured the switch on the Odroid N2 on MMC.

With Ubuntu OS Image I have no problem…
https://dn.odroid.com/S922X/ODROID-N2/Ubuntu/ubuntu-20.04-4.9-minimal-odroid-n2-20220228.img.xz

I just retested by installing the HA image haos_odroid-n2-13.2.img with balenaEtcher but my ODROID does not boot.

I tested with the ODROID image ubuntu-22.04-4.9-mate-odroid-n2-20220629.img && ubuntu-22.04-4.9-mate-odroid-n2-20220629.img and I have no boot problem.

Isn’t there a problem on the HA image with an eMMC module on an ODROID N2+?

Do you have the same problem?

Regards

What operating system image do you use?

odroid-n2 (Hardkernel ODROID-N2/N2+)

What version of Home Assistant Operating System is installed?

core-2024.11.0 && core-2024.11.2

Did the problem occur after upgrading the Operating System?

No

Hardware details

eMMC Linux RED 64Gb

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Install haos_odroid-n2-13.2.img into my eMMC with USB Adapter

I'm not sure what you mean by "eMMC Linux RED 64Gb" but the symptoms look very much like #3250. Can you check with the latest 14.0.rc1?

[Hadramos]

This module (Kingston) : https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/64gb-emmc-module-n2-linux/

Very well I will test with the latest release 14.0.rc1 but I just retested and I have the same problem at boot with the following versions 13.0 - 13.1 - 13.2

[Hadramos]

I flashed the eMMC module with USB support and balenaEtcher (linux-x64)

I have the same problem with lastest version 14.0.rc1
https://github.com/home-assistant/operating-system/releases/download/14.0.rc1/haos_odroid-n2-14.0.rc1.img.xz

And I have the same problem as this issue #3250 with my eMMC module Kingston

[Hadramos]

I like HA and I have been using it for a long time with another ODROID N2 (not +) but with an ssd card. I recently bought another ODROID N2+ with the eMMC module to have more power and that there is only HA installed on it. I will be there if you need more testing

[sairon]

Testing anything older than 14.0.rc1 makes no sense, as the Kingston eMMC wasn't supported in those releases.

Can you send a screen capture (taken with a camera) of the early log when the boot fails on OS 14.0.rc1?

[Hadramos]

I didn't know that not all versions of HA were compatible with a Kingston eMMC module.

Attached is a screen print with my camera (13.2 version)

[sairon]

That doesn't seem right, after the unable to select a mode line, there should be Card failed to initialize at 24000000 Hz, disabling meson_gx hack. one. It seems that you didn't flash the 14.0.rc1 to the eMMC properly, this is not U-Boot from that version.

[Hadramos]

Sorry, i changed my screen print with my camera (14.0.rc1 version)

Hi @sairon it's ok for you my last picture?

[sairon]

@Hadramos Yes, it's clear. It seems that for some reason the 64 GB module behaves differently than other Kingston eMMCs that we have tested (32 GB and 128 GB variants, where the 128 GB one even worked with older HAOS versions). I will try to get my hands on the 64 GB module as well and check what's going on. Unfortunately, the interim solution would be to use other eMMCs that are proven to be working - if you still can return this one, I will suggest doing that.

Can you just double-check it really has is a Kingston chip? It should look like this with the sticker removed, but even with the sticker the part of the "Kingston" logo should be prominent:

[Hadramos]

Yes, I can confirm that it is indeed a Kingston module. I looked yesterday.
I'll take a photo for you this evening, I'm not there today.

[Hadramos]

Do you have any sites other than Hardkernel to order a 128GB eMMC? With Hardkernel I have to pay customs fees

[sairon]

Check the official distributors list. I got mine from RPishop.cz (they're also shipping internationally to Europe) but there might be some distributor closer to you.
