Arch Linux on OrangePi Zero

Here is a working SD card image for installing Arch Linux on an OrangePi Zero. It basically follows this excellent build guide but can save you a lot of time if you just want to get an image up an running, especially with getting the ethernet support to work.

The image is located here. (It is an unofficial image, not supported by ArchLinux, use at your own risk). Last build date: 2019-11-17.

You need an SD card of at least 2GB. You can resize the partition to use your whole SD card after installing.

Replace ‘sdX’ with the device corresponding to your SD card.

curl https://dl.ng3.io/opz/ArchLinuxARM-OrangePiZero-latest.img.xz | xzcat | sudo dd of=/dev/sdX bs=1M status=progress 

Download the image, check the checksum, and install the traditional way. SHA256:

3c248c8329391544c8ff958b10d5aaaf5fc9fec35e75ed57af2d1f93fa198bfc ArchLinuxARM-OrangePiZero-latest.img.xz 

$ wget https://dl.ng3.io/opz/ArchLinuxARM-OrangePiZero-latest.img.xz $ sha256sum ArchLinuxARM-OrangePiZero-latest.img.xz 3c248c8329391544c8ff958b10d5aaaf5fc9fec35e75ed57af2d1f93fa198bfc ArchLinuxARM-OrangePiZero-latest.img.xz $ xzcat ArchLinuxARM-OrangePiZero-latest.img.xz | sudo dd of=/dev/sdX bs=1M status=progress 

On Mac, use dd of=/dev/rdiskX bs=1m conv=sync (see why dd is slow on Mac).

On Windows, use a tool like Etcher.

Resize the partition to use the whole SD card

Once the system is working, use fdisk /dev/mmcblk0 (fdisk) as root to resize the partition. Press d to delete the current partition, then press n to create a new partition, and press Enter 4 times to accept the defaults. fdisk will give you defaults that work and make the partition as big as possible. Then answer N when fdisk asks about removing the existing ext4 signature.

Finally press w to write the changes.

Reboot, and use resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p1 as root to update the filesystem size. You’re done!

USB on Orange Pi expansion board

It has been reported that when using the «Orange Pi expansion board» (that adds 2 USB ports and other IO), the additional USB ports don’t work out of the box. A fix is proposed which consists in putting a sun8i-h2-plus-orangepi-zero-3usb.dtb in /boot/dtbs . This file is not installed by default, but is included in the default user directory for convenience, to save you troubleshooting time in case you want to use the expansion board. However, it is not part of the base ArchLinuxARM distribution which the current image is upon, and I cannot vouch for its validity. Use at your own risk.

Once your image is installed on the SD card you have booted the Orange Pi Zero, if you’re using ethernet, you can login via ssh:

$ ssh alarm@alarm or if this does not work $ ssh alarm@IP_ADDR 

This is not specific to this image and is the same procedure as for the general ArchLinuxARM. As a reminder, default password is alarm (for user alarm ) and root for superuser.

Feedbacks and comments are welcome.

maximtrp / Orange Pi PC + Arch Linux ARM.md

This guide is based on multiple guides as well as official instructions for the other boards found on the Internet:

I have gone through all these steps recently and got a working board with my favorite Arch Linux ARM. I hope it will be helpful for someone else.

Replace sdX with the device name for your SD card. Zero the beginning of the SD card:

sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX bs=1M count=8

Run fdisk to partition the SD card:

At the fdisk prompt, delete old partitions and create a new one:

1. Type o . This will clear out any partitions on the drive.
2. Type p to list partitions. There should be no partitions left.
3. Now type n , then p for primary, 1 for the first partition on the drive, 2048 for the first sector, and then press ENTER to accept the default last sector.
4. Write the partition table and exit by typing w .

Create the ext4 filesystem:

Download and extract the root filesystem:

wget http://os.archlinuxarm.org/os/ArchLinuxARM-armv7-latest.tar.gz sudo bsdtar -xpf ArchLinuxARM-armv7-latest.tar.gz -C /mnt sync

Install uboot-tools . In ArchLinux:

Create boot.txt file in /boot dir.

Paste the following contents into it:

if test -n $; then setenv bootpart $; else setenv bootpart 1; fi part uuid $ $:$ uuid setenv bootargs console=$ root=PARTUUID=$ rw rootwait if load $ $:$ $ /boot/zImage; then if load $ $:$ $ /boot/dtbs/$; then if load $ $:$ $ /boot/initramfs-linux.img; then bootz $ $:$ $; else bootz $ - $; fi; fi; fi 

Now create the boot script boot.scr :

sudo mkimage -A arm -O linux -T script -C none -n "U-Boot boot script" -d boot.cmd boot.scr

Clone U-Boot repo and checkout the latest tag (or the one you need):

git clone https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot cd u-boot git checkout v2023.04 -b tmp

Install the cross compiler for ARM EABI (in Arch Linux):

sudo pacman -S arm-none-eabi-gcc

Compile bootloader (you need to have setuptools Python package to be installed):

export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-eabi- export ARCH=arm make distclean make orangepi_pc_defconfig make

sudo dd if=u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of=/dev/sdX bs=1024 seek=8

Insert the micro SD card into Orange Pi PC, connect Ethernet, and apply 5V power. Use the serial console or SSH to the IP address given to the board by your router. Login as the default user alarm with the password alarm . The default root password is root . Initialize the pacman keyring and populate the Arch Linux ARM package signing keys:

su # Type in the password: root (by default) pacman-key --init pacman-key --populate archlinuxarm
