Hi,

Did my first steps and got it booting till linux with initrd :slight_smile: thx for the board.

Currently i work on sdcard-support…it is recognized and i can work with it (did simple tests from initrd),but not sure if i have setup uhs right.

Can you please share schematics and openwrt sources with me?

Noticed that reset switch does no reset.

Hello All,

I am looking for instructions to load the image on the BPI-R3. I would like to load on the eMMC but I will try SD-Card also. The “Getting Start” on the wiki is empty so please send me step by step not a link to the wiki.

Thanks, Gil

Afaik there is no emmc image yet, but i have some instructions for getting emmc bootable.

You have to go from sd to spim-nand (boot from this with emmc enabled) to flash emmc as this uses same mmc controller.
