A10-Olinuxino-lime

[xtrinch]

First of all thank you for your hard work,

I've booted into the A10-Olinuxino-lime image, and I'm unable to get apt to work, it says Temporary failure resolving. It appears I'm connected and have an IP on eth0 (Can see it in the ifconfig). Can't ping since ping isn't installed.

Can confirm same ethernet port connection setup works with official Olimex images.

What could it be?

Can't reproduce. Maybe the DHCP/DNS problem in your local network.

Hello there,

i have the same issue here with the bookworm image. Guess it could have something to do with the hostname. Will see if i can resolve this. But one question: which editor to edit files in the vanilla version is standard? Tried the usual suspects (vi, nano) but neither seem to be installed.

Thanks for any hint on this.

Regards,

Boris

Addendum: changing the routers setup didn't solve it. Here's the output from apt update:

Unfortunately it gets no packages, either (i think that was clear, but hopes die at least):

This is strange, too:

root@debian:~# ping
-bash: ping: command not found

Maybe there's something gone wrong with the debian-base-system?

Any hint, how i can find out, what's wrong here?

Gotcha. In /etc/resolv.conf the nameserver is set to 192.168.2.1 but in my case it should be 192.168.178.1

Looks way better - but installing nano and some sort of ping command thru .deb-files and scp wasn't soo nice ;)

Next thing was the time and date was not set correctly and where a little offset. a date -s corrected this one.
Now apt update && apt upgrade works as expected.

Another note: it seems to be no dialog installed, so apt goes to crash-recover with the readline interface... maybe there are some issues with the base-packages...

Nice catch. I made a fix for it.
