Step4: Set up your Banana Pi M3

According to the set up diagram below, you can easily set up your Banana Pi.

53 BPI-M3 Quick Start

1. Insert the written-image SD card that to the SD card spot on the left side edge of the underside of the board. 2. 2.On the bottom "edge" in the middle of the board is the HDMI Type A (Full sized) port. Just connect any HDMI cable from the board to your TV or HDMI Monitor. 3. Plug a USB keyboard and mouse into the USB slots located on the right edge. 4. Just under the USB ports on the right edge is the Ethernet connector for anyone who wants to plug the Banana Pi into a wired network. 5. 5.Finally, at the very left of the bottom edge is the USB power connector. Plug in a regulated power supply that is rated at 5V ±5% / 2000mA (or 2A). Any number bigger than 700 mA will also work. Avoid using the smaller chargers used for small GSM phones, as these are often unregulated, even if they claim "5V 1A", they may do "5V" and may do "1A", but not at the same time!

If all goes well, the Banana Pi will boot in a few minutes. The screen will display the OS GUI.

Step5: Shut down your Banana Pi

You can use the GUI to shut down the Banana Pi safely.

Also you can run the command in the terminal:

sudo halt or sudo shutdown –h

This will shut down the PI safely, (just use the power key to turn off might damage the SD-cards file system). After that you can press the power key for 5 seconds to turn it off.

If all is well ,so you can use banana pi M3 now. video on youtube : how to burn kali linux to your SD card ,all linux image is same: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRNNC6D4F48

OpenWRT on banana pi

OpenWRT have support many allwinner chip . so easy to use it on banana pi

Allwinner Sun4i/5i/6i/7i/9i (sunxi) Various vendors are offering development boards / single-board computer based on the Allwinner SoCs. These are running various flavors of the A1x, A20, A31, and soon H3 SoCs, with different buildouts. The mach is called "sunxi".

For some specs rather see Allwinner_Technology#A-Series.

more please see: https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/hardware/soc/soc.allwinner.sunxi?s[]=banana&s[]=pi

BanaNAS-Nas server based on Debian Jessie

Image already have instaled OpenMediaVault v3 beta. (omv v3.0.13) in version <= 3.0.14 is a lot of bugs.

Bittorrent DLNA SMB FTP ...

System image requires at least 16GB SD card (i use 32GB) http://simplenas.com/download/banana-m3

101 Lakka TV

Lakka TV

The newly supported boards are:

Banana Pi M2+ with H3 chip Banana Pi M3 with A83T chip for BPI-M1 and BPI-M1+ use A20 chip design ,also can find some support for A20.

As you can see, H3 is used in a lot of boards. Each of them have different specs. Some of them are available at a very cheap price.

The original OpenELEC and LibreELEC port has been done by @jernejsk and we backported it to Lakka.

The images can be downloaded from there: http://mirror.lakka.tv/nightly/

@Ntemis took care of testing the image on some of these boards and Lakka and RetroArch are working well on them.

If you are new to Lakka and want to test one of the images, just adapt the installation instruction that you can find on our website for any other ARM board.

As I don’t own any of these boards myself, I can’t check them for regressions and support them officially for now. But I will as soon as some contributors send me one or two.

We need more owners of any of these boards on our IRC chan to check if all the images are really working well. Remember that this is mainly untested work when you report bugs. more please visit lakka TV official website: http://www.lakka.tv/

How to setup docker env. to build github source code how to setup docker env. to build banana pi github source code step 1: install docker https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/ubuntulinux/ step 2: docker run https://hub.docker.com/r/sinovoip/bpi-build/

$ docker run -d -p 2222:22 -v /media:/media sinovoip/bpi-build:ubuntu12.04 on your host

$ ssh -p 2222 [email protected] //default passwd is root or (with --privileged can use /dev/loop for create img)

$ docker run -d -p 3333:22 --privileged -v /media:/media sinovoip/bpi-build:ubuntu12.04

$ ssh -p 3333 [email protected] //default passwd is root step 3: git clone

# cd /media/XXX/your-source # git clone https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/BPI-M3-bsp.git step 4: build

# ./build.sh how to create your own env. to build the code step 1: git clone https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/bpi-build.git step 2: vi Dockerfile step 3. vi build.sh step 4: ./build.sh why use docker env. to build banana pi source code

1. allwinner tools needs ubuntu12.04 with ia32-libs ... 2. user maybe use ubuntu 12.04 or 14.04 and newer like 16.04, the docker env. the same, even other linux like fedora opensuse archlinux ...., or other os like macos , windows ... 3. build BPI-Mx-bsp env. than mainline kernel & uboot or android 4.X or android 5.X / 6.X not the same.

1 Compile BPI-M3 BSP create a dir for BPI-M3 and get source code from gitgub

mkdir bananapi cd bananapi git clone https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/BPI-M3-bsp.git

cd BPI-M3-bsp mkdir -p linux-sunxi/output/lib/firmware

2, run this segment if you use 64 bits platform the official kit was compiled on 32 bit platform ,so you must support 32bit execution in your 64 bits ubuntu.

118 BPI-M3 Cross Compile teach

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 zlib1g:i386

3,install necessary tools:(skip this if you have executed the two instructions in the segment of the 64 bits)

sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get install build-essential u-boot-tools binutils-arm-linux-gnueabihf gcc-4.7-arm-linux-gnueabihf-base g++-4 .7-arm-linux-gnueabihf gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi cpp-arm-linux-gnueabihf libusb-1.0-0 libusb-1.0- 0-dev git wget fakeroot kernel-package zlib1g-dev libncurses5-dev

4,begin to Compile for me, i need use LCD on BPI-M3, so i choose is:3

./build.sh now choose menu:

BPI-M3 BSP Build Tool ======

This tool support following BPI board(s): ------1. BPI_M3_720P 2. BPI_M3_1080P 3. BPI_M3_LCD7 4. BPI_M3_USB_720P 5. BPI_M3_USB_1080P 6. BPI_M3_USB_LCD7 ------Please choose a target(1-6): 3

Now configuring...

BPI_M3_LCD7 configured. Now run `make`

Configure success! please waitting , it need long time to compile,it takes a while and depends on the performance of your computer

119 BPI-M3 Cross Compile teach

Note: if compile success ,will have ../bananapi/BPI-M3-BSP dir.if it does not show up, any other "build success" screen are deceptive.

5 burn image to SD card: take a new SD card , and install official image to SD card. official image : http://www.banana-pi.org/download.html the next step, be sure to choose the correct device.

sudo fdisk -l

120 BPI-M3 Cross Compile teach

umount /dev/sdf* clean

sudo fdisk /dev/sdf p d w sync please use "d" clean partition.And then dropped the device completely clear

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdf bs=4M buru official image to SD card .please do not Android and Berryboot image. example: ArchLinux image name: 015-12-09-ArchLinuxARM-lite-bpi-m3-sd-emmc.img.zip

unzip 2015-12-09-ArchLinuxARM-lite-bpi-m3-sd-emmc.img.zip -d ~ cd ~ sudo dd if=2015-12-09-ArchLinuxARM-lite-bpi-m3-sd-emmc.img of=/dev/sdf bs=4M waiting still dd finish.

umount /dev/sdf* check partition

sudo fsck /dev/sdf1 sudo fsck /dev/sdf2 change /dev/sdf2 to ext2，and change size

sudo tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/sdf2 sudo e2fsck -f /dev/sdf2

Write the first compiled data: next step will clean partition table, so we must transcribe it at first

121 BPI-M3 Cross Compile teach

go to we just compiled things stored folder

cd ~/bananapi/BPI-M3-bsp/download/BPI_M3_LCD7 all file will such as this below:

Empty memory card 1m before space (and clears the partition table)

sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdf bs=1M count=1 in order to write compiled file

122 BPI-M3 Cross Compile teach

sudo dd if=boot0_sdcard.fex of=/dev/sdf bs=1k seek=8 sudo dd if=u-boot.fex of=/dev/sdf bs=1k seek=19096 sudo dd if=sunxi_mbr.fex of=/dev/sdf bs=1k seek=20480 sudo dd if=boot-resource.fex of=/dev/sdf bs=1k seek=36864 sudo dd if=env.fex of=/dev/sdf bs=1k seek=69632 sudo dd if=boot.fex of=/dev/sdf bs=1k seek=86016 recovery partition table,and increase the capacity to the memory card is the largest,also change to /dev/sdf2.

sudo fdisk /dev/sdf p n p 1 204800 729087 t c n p 2 729088 # here just "enter"，default will get max size w sync sudo fsck /dev/sdf1 sudo fsck /dev/sdf2 sudo resize2fs /dev/sdf2 sudo tune2fs -j /dev/sdf2 sudo e2fsck -f /dev/sdf2 all is finish. just use this SD card to boot your banana pi.

Be aware that the board manufacturer is not cooperative. Despite its name the M3 is incompatible to Banana Pi/M1/M1+/Pro due to a different SoC requiring different boot loaders and drivers. It's just another attempt to cash in on the Banana Pi's popularity with another incompatible SBC sharing brand, name, form factor and GPIO header. more,please see this link: http://linux-sunxi.org/Banana_Pi_M3
