Test Environment

System Information

• System Version: openEuler 24.03 LTS-SP1 RISC-V
• Download Link: https://www.openeuler.org/en/download/#openEuler%2024.03%20LTS%20SP1
• Reference Installation Document: https://docs.openeuler.org/en/docs/24.03_LTS/docs/Installation/RISC-V-LicheePi4A.html

Hardware Information

• USB-C Power Adapter / DC Power Supply
• A USB-UART Debugger

Installation Steps

Download and decompress image

Download the image from official website: https://www.openeuler.org/en/download/#openEuler%2024.03%20LTS%20SP1

Choose RISC-V -> Embedded -> lpi4a.

zstd -d openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP1-riscv64-lpi4a-base-boot.ext4.zst
zstd -d openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP1-riscv64-lpi4a-base-root.ext4.zst

Flash to onboard eMMC via fastboot

By default the USB VID/PID of LPi4A are’t in the udev rules, you might need to use sudo while using fastboot.

Hold the BOOT button, then connect the USB-C cable (to your PC on the other side) to enter USB burning mode.

In Windows using device manager, you’ll see a device named USB download gadget.

In Linux using lsusb you’ll see a device like: ID 2345:7654 T-HEAD USB download gadget.

Use the following commands to flash the image.

sudo fastboot devices
sudo fastboot flash ram u-boot-with-spl-lpi4a.bin
sudo fastboot reboot
# Wait a few seconds until the board reboots and reconnects to your PC

sudo fastboot flash uboot u-boot-with-spl-lpi4a.bin
sudo fastboot flash boot openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP1-riscv64-lpi4a-base-boot.ext4
sudo fastboot flash root openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP1-riscv64-lpi4a-base-root.ext4

Logging into the System

Logging into the system via serial console.

Default username: openeuler or root Default password: openEuler12#$

Expected Results

The system boots up successfully and allows login via the serial console.

If connected to a network, SSH login should be possible.

Actual Results

The system boots up without issues, and both serial console and SSH login are successful.
