Installation
- Use pmbootstrap to create a bootable SD card:
$ pmbootstrap init # pick 'odroid' as manufacturer, 'hc2' as device and 'console' as UI. $ pmbootstrap install --sdcard=/dev/sdX
- Only the UI 'console' is supported by the ODROID HC2 as there's no HDMI or any other video port available on this device. With UI 'none' you won't have SSH access over Ethernet.
- Insert SD card into the Odroid HC2, plug in the Ethernet cable and turn it on.
- The Odroid HC2 should boot up and become accessible over SSH.
v22.12 or later
postmarketOS v22.12 or later runs linux-edge
from Alpine, we don't have any kernel fork anymore in pmaports.
RootFS on external HDD
WARNING: This process is irreversible without reflashing postmarketOS on the microSD card, you have been warned. |
After installing postmarketOS on your ODROID HC2, you may want to move the rootFS to the external HDD of the ODROID HC2.
A set of tools to accomplish this are provided in the device-odroid-hc2-tools
package which can be used as followed with root
permissions:
apk add device-odroid-hc2-tools # install tools install-rootfs-hdd # run script and answer 'y' and with the device node you want to have the rootFS on (/dev/sdX) reboot
