Objective: boot F21 on MK802II Allwinner A10 headless and without
serial console.<br>
Installation instructions used were the "manual" ones from:<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F21/Installation">https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F21/Installation</a>
<br>
Have applied /usr/share/uboot/Mele_A1000/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin
using dd<br>
and also tried
/usr/share/uboot/Cubieboard/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin <br>
<br>
I am presuming that this step would have applied
sun4i-a10-a1000.dtb<br>
or have I missed a step?<br>
<br>
Have set up wpa on the sdcard before booting using tips from <br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/WpaSupplicant">http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/WpaSupplicant</a>
with edits of /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf and
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0 <br>
<br>
As well as the various user folders being empty as listed below
the messages log file shows that the<br>
following Services have failed<br>
abrtd<br>
firewalld<br>
rngd<br>
avahi-daemon<br>
chronyd<br>
sshd-keygen<br>
systemd-logind<br>
dbus<br>
rtkit-daemon<br>
ModemManager<br>
<br>
Any tips on where to start looking?<br>
Are there a number of steps to manually do what the firstboot
script normally does by writing to the card before booting?<br>
I need to have sshd start before login if I am to connect
wirelessly - I have no usb ethernet adapter.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

I have applied /usr/share/uboot/Mele_A1000/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin
using dd. This Mele device has shown a very high compatibility
previously with the MK802II. Other u-boot options that I could try might
be Cubieboard (1) and maybe A10-OLinuXino-Lime but less sure of this
last one.
Is my understanding correct that this step would have applied
sun4i-a10-a1000.dtb or have I missed a step?
