[Discord] <lands39> what's the package for python 3.9?
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <lands39> actually, how do i install python in general
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <lands39> something i want to try needs tobe compiled and its written in py

[Discord] <Werner> depends on userspace. yours may not ship 3.9 but a different one.
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <lands39> okay, it already has python but /usr/bin/python3: No module named PyInstaller
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <lands39> maybe i'm out of luck then
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <lands39> the git has a binary but its locked behind a 7z with no password so i'm left no choice but to compile, i get that error though

[Discord] <menu> you'll *probably* need to learn python basics to build that, `PyInstaller` is a specific module that will require installation, and i'd not be surprised to see that project require a specific version of both python and PyInstaller
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> how goes menu
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> I would like to order chicken sandwich on rye with sweetpatato fries

Hi, I'm trying to set up armbian on an odroid HC4. The wiki tells me to erase the petitboot bootloader, but the devices (/dev/mtd*) are not present when I boot armbian. On a regular reboot the system doesn't come up, though. What might be the problem? Unfortunately the system is headless so I can't really observe the boot process.
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> you booting a emmc or you going for usb ?
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> never seen the hc4 looks like a drive mount device
<Schrostfutz__>
I'm booting from the SD card
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> you dont have a uart you can plug in and monitor
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> you should get the uart when doing hearless stuff
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> what kernel /img you using
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> it says to boot you need to unplug and put the sd card in and flip the unit and push the blackbutton while powering on
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> \
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> and then you can wipe the device else you have to have it on hdmi to wipe
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> it says how to boot past here
<Schrostfutz__>
Yeah, I suppose I should really get a uart dongle. My kernel is 6.12.22-current-meson64. When I follow the process from the wiki you describe, I get to boot into the system, without it it doesn;t work.
<Schrostfutz__>
I suppose the easiest fix is finding a keyboard and monitor

[Discord] <n4cnr> the issue is that after you wipe it and you want to boot from a drive to flash the bl to the md
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> but it does not talk much about it
<Schrostfutz__>
You mean the wiki? I struggle to find more information about this...
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> look on the page I posted you would have to wipe the md and then load the current uboot onto it
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> to boot armbian from the harddrive
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> or you install to the hd and keep the sd card as /boot
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> after wiping the md

<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> it says petiboot can boot the os once installed
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> if you where on discord I could give you alot more info
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> the irc bridge makes it hard
<Schrostfutz__>
The problem is that the devices are not present: `ls /dev | grep mtd` is empty. I don't know why that is
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> then its not built into the current kernel and will have to have support added
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> and the mtd tools added
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> to a cli img
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> but the page i posted tells you how else to
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> not much more caan do
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <n4cnr> look in the kernel config and see if it has mtd enabled in it
<Schrostfutz__>
Thanks a bunch! I'll look into that!
