Hi
I just purchased a NanoPI R5S as it seems supported by OpenBSD but I
have some issues getting it installed.
After reading the arm maillist archive it seems like some has gotten
it running and I found https://personalbsd.org/download/UEFI-RK356x/
where a ready made image for installation was done.
Steps I have done:
-Download and flash
https://personalbsd.org/download/UEFI-RK356x/NANOPI-R5S_EFI.img to a cf
-Put the cf in my NanoPI R5S and power on
-Enter set tty fb0 at boot prompt and boot it up
-The normal OpenBSD install procedure starts using HDMI connected
screen and USB keyboard and everything looks fine. So I assume
OpenBSD is installed at the internal emmc drive.
-When told, I remove the cf and reboot. The screen is totally blank
and nothing seems to happen.
There is a UART but it seems it needs soldering to get a serial
console so I would prefer to avoid that.
I would be very happy if anyone could advise me how to get
installation on the internal disk working.
Thanks

I’d recommend using the corresponding image from our U-Boot package
instead of the UEFI one:
https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/aarch64/u-boot-rk356x-2024.01p0.tgz
dd to the CF a la dd if=u-boot-rockchip.bin of=/dev/XXXX bs=512 seek=64
Cheers,

Hi
Did these steps:
-Inserted a sd card in another working OpenBSD box.
-wget https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/arm64/miniroot76.img
-doas pkg_add u-boot-rk356x
-doas dd if=miniroot76.img of=/dev/rsd1c bs=1m
-doas dd
if=/usr/local/share/u-boot/nanopi-r5s-rk3568/u-boot-rockchip.bin
of=/dev/rsd1c seek=64
-moved the sd card to my nanopi-r5s and turned on power.
-No output at all on the HDMI.
I think I followed the instructions at:
https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/arm64/INSTALL.arm64
Thanks
Peter
