I was in error when I stated that everything loaded/installed/built with no errors. There was an error
with the piaware install that I failed to notice.
Am out of town and can’t look at the moment, but there are updated instructions for building TCL-tls-fa which will fix the problem around here somewhere. That will need to be done prior to dpkg.
Thank you guys for your assistance. I have successfully build my rockpi using the instructions you guys provided. It is running great. Site number 108954.
Great to hear mate. Keep us informed about your thoughts on this SBC after having run it awhile. I personally like it alot and it’s the only SBC I’ve tested that can run an Airspy R2 full-tilt along with an RTL-SDR radio doing UAT and a USB GPS dongle all plugged into the same device without dropping packets/MLAT.
Cool to hear. They should send me something for pushing their product
I just tried a few things with the mainline Debian desktop kernel and well as DietPi and both proved to be trash for the RockPi4. The only way to work cleanly on this board with Linux (in my opinion) is to use Armbian Buster (right column).
Default login is root/1234
They have some really nice first-run scripts that will help you setup your locale, user, etc. Armbian has come a long ways and is really nice to use.
I tried many distros for my OrangePiPC, all had problems, till found Armbian, which is debian based. I am using it for last 4 years, upgrading by re-imaging regularly, current image being Buster. It is as good as Raspbian is for RPi.
Wonderful developer named Igor, has developed distros for such a huge number of SBCs.
