hi, there.

i got a img named:2017-05-12-ubuntu-16.04-mate-desktop-preview3-bpi-m2m-sd-emmc.img I try to burn it to sdcard and boot on my R16 board. But it stuck before loading the kernel. how should i port this img to my board?

Thank you!

This image works. Get a new SD CARD, Avoid using Win32DiskImager.exe, use dd or better yet use etcher.

thanks!

it seems something wrong with the bootloader part. when i replaced the boot0 and uboot, it worked.

Hi @sinovoip,

I have been looking for a suitable display for my BPI-M2 Magic for days and I cannot find one anywhere, you only have the 7-inch one available on your store and that doesn’t seem to work with this board as its only the 40 pin connector.

Do you know when this 5-inch version will be available? I would really like the 5-inch one, if not do you know if there are any other boards which work with the M2 Magic?

Thanks :slight_smile:

Searching in Aliexpress for MIPI LCD panels give a lot of results, but cable types are different so it is useless information.

can anyone say which exact available models can fit this module? I see in the picture above that the module uses a mobile phone LCD, is it too hard to share which is it?
“this is our 5`0 LCD TP,” no it isnt, do you manufacture phone screens? which type is it of which mobile phone?? Please provide answers. Update: The LCD that is being used in the picture is the LCD of the Meetuu G7 mobile phone.

I am looking for a linux distro for this board. Is there a boot and linux kernel somewhere that would let me get my board at least up and running?
