Deepin Star64 Test Report

Test Environment

Operating System Information

Hardware Information

  • Pine64 Star64
  • A microSD card
  • DC 12V5A Barrel power adapter
  • A USB to UART Debugger (e.g., CH340, CH341, FT2232, etc.)
  • Three Dupont wires

Installation Steps

Decompress and Flash Image to microSD Card

zstd -d https://github.com/deepin-community/deepin-riscv-board/releases/download/v20221209/deepin-visionfive-2-20221208180420.img.zst.0
sudo dd if=https://github.com/deepin-community/deepin-riscv-board/releases/download/v20221209/deepin-visionfive-2-20221208180420.img of=/dev/your/device bs=1M status=progress

Boot Mode Selection

Pine64 Star64 offers multiple boot modes, configurable via onboard DIP switches before powering on. The board itself also has silk-screen labels. See Boot Mode Selection for details.

To boot the image, select the SPI Flash mode (i.e., GPIO_0 = 0, GPIO_1 = 0). Note that this mode may require updating the firmware in the Flash beforehand. If the boot is unsuccessful, please refer to the official documentation for firmware upgrade details: Updating SPL and U-Boot

If not updating the firmware, choose the microSD card boot mode (i.e., GPIO_0 = 1, GPIO_1 = 0).

Note: There is a slight chance that the system may fail to boot in this mode. If boot failure occurs, the serial output might resemble the following:

dwmci_s: Response Timeout.
dwmci_s: Response Timeout.
BOOT fail,Error is 0xffffffff

You can try repowering the development board or pressing the button near the USB Type-C power port. This usually resolves the boot issue.

Logging into the System

Log into the system via the serial port.

Default username: root Default password: deepin

Expected Results

The system should boot up normally and allow login via the serial port.

Actual Results

The system booted up successfully, and login via the serial port was successful.
