Testing of 0.7.8

[ayufan]

This is an issue to document QA process of 0.7.7 testing before making the images releases.

I'm trying to boot stretch-minimal-rock64-0.7.6-1055-arm64.img.xz, however it doesn't even get an IP via DHCP.

After reverting to stretch-minimal-rock64-0.6.23-189-arm64.img.xz I'm able to connect via SSH (so DHCP client etc works).

Tested LXDE Rock64 (1,2 & 4GB boards)
*Boots up to desktop without issues. HDMI auto-sets to 1080p & 1440p correctly on respective monitors. Red flickering every 5-10min.
*Sound via HDMI and audio jack works (didn't test SPDIF) after being set.
*USB stick doesn't automount - could we have gnome-disks-utility in next images ? it does make it a bit easier for those less knowledgeable to mount disks.
*USB 2.3 & USB 3.0 - no issues
*GbE and networking - no issues
*Reboots fine / reset and power buttons work.

@everyone having troubles, you have to give a full boot log.

[plambe]

Where do I find a full boot log?

[bullet64]

@plambe Use serial console to get an full boot log.

With Putty you can save the full boot log to an file.

Can confirm bionic-containers-rockpro64-0.7.6 with nvme (now with samsung 960 evo nvme) had issues at boot, removal of card allowed and power cycle allowed for full boot. Power cycled the sucker a few times and it has been fine since. No boot logs sorry. Didn't have any issues with SATA card.

[ayufan]

Thanks everyone. I pushed a few fixes (no SPDIF yet) and the 0.7.7 is being builded now.

[ayufan]

Lets move on to 0.7.7.

2. boot: ok with nvme card, nvme detected
3. After 'shutdown -r now' boot ok but nvme card isn't detected https://pastebin.com/d8B5mgah
4. Five times 'shutdown -r now' - boot ok, nvme card not detected
5. Five times reboot via reset button, one time nvme card detected

Still something fine tuning. Thanks Kamil!

I have tried stretch-minimal-rock64-0.7.7-1057-arm64.img.xz, incluing 0.7.3 - 0.7.7 all version, but it's booting failed. This stretch-minimal-rock64-0.7.7 boots from SD ,and hdmi screen shows "failed to request DMA, use interrupt mode / waiting for root device LABEL=linux-root"
