openEuler RISC-V 24.03 LTS SP1 Pioneer Test Report

Test Environment

Operating System Information

• System Version: openEuler RISC-V 24.03 LTS SP1 (Image, Legacy boot)
• Download Link: openEuler mirror (Or in openEuler website Choose: riscv64 -> embedded -> SG2042 -> Choose Mirror Site)
• Installation Guide: Installing on Pioneer Box - openEuler Docs

Hardware Information

• Milk-V Pioneer Box v1.3
• A microSD card (or NVMe SSD + NVMe SSD to USB hard drive enclosure)
• A USB Type-C cable (used to connect the onboard serial port)

Installation Steps

Flashing Image to microSD card or NVMe SSD using dd

Download the image, then burn it to microSD card or NVMe drive using dd.

If you’re using Windows, we recommend using tools like Rufus or Etcher.

Replace /dev/sda with your actual drive’s name.

unzip openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP1-riscv64-sg2042.img.zip
sudo dd if=openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP1-riscv64-sg2042.img of=/dev/sda bs=4M status=progress
sync
sudo eject /dev/sda

Logging into the System

According to openEuler’s docs:

Due to the limitations of the current factory firmware, the RISC-V serial output is incomplete during device startup, and the serial output will be closed before the operating system is fully loaded. The graphics card needs to be inserted into the PCIe slot and connected to a monitor to observe the complete startup process.

We’ll log into the system via SSH instead of serial here.

Check the device’s IP on your router.

Or you can just connect a monitor, keyboard and mouse to Pioneer and login.

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

Expected Results

The system starts up properly and can be accessed via SSH.

Actual Results

The system starts up correctly and SSH login is successful.
