Installation

1. Use pmbootstrap to create a bootable SD card:

 pmbootstrap init  # pick 'odroid' as manufacturer, 'xu4' as device and 'none' as UI.
 pmbootstrap install --sdcard=/dev/sdX

You must install the nonfree firmware package for this device to get it booting. It contains early bootloaders and trustzone firmware. The early bootloaders initialise the hardware and then boots u-boot.

2. Insert SD card into the Odroid XU4, plug in the Ethernet cable and turn it on.

3. The Odroid XU4 should boot up and become accessible over SSH.

Note If the Odroid does not appear on your local network, its Ethernet may be disabled. One can enable it by attaching a keyboard and following the Alpine wiki: sudo setup-interfaces && sudo /etc/init.d/networking --quiet restart && sudo rc-update add networking boot. Ethernet also will not work if the system time is too out of date. It should sync automatically, but if that process is too slow you might want to manually edit the date and time.
