Hey @jstefanop and @crypto_curious, I'm trying to mount the NVMe from a custom Linux install on another microSD card and it just doesn't show up in
lsblk or elsewhere.
Does the 'Futurebit OS' have a special driver included or anything like that to recognize the small daughterboard which connects the NVMe SSD to the SBC?
Edit: It seems an OpenSUSE / JeOS specific issue. With ARMbian for Orange Pi 4 it works nicely.
But if there's any information you can share about accessing the hashboard through the internal connection, I'd really appreciate it!
Yea you could technically run the whole UI off a rasberry pi (or any ARM SBC with a UART port for that matter), or simply run it off the USB port if you dont want to deal with setting up the internal UART. I should probably post the board connector pinout for anyone that wants to do this. Will probably release a pi image at some point as well (or at least update the installer so its a one step RPI installation).
Oh, it's internal UART, alright. Would it be possible to know how to 'activate' it?
I can see on 'Futurebit OS', it's activated, while on my Armbian SD card it's not.

I need stock Armbian to recognize
ttyS1...
Edit 2: I changed a few things as I noticed you swapped uart1 and uart2 in your Futurebit OS.
sudo dtc -I dtb -O dts /boot/dtb/rockchip/rk3399-orangepi-4.dtb -o /boot/dtb/rockchip/rk3399-orangepi-4.dts
sudo vim /boot/dtb/rockchip/rk3399-orangepi-4.dts
sudo dtc -I dts -O dtb /boot/dtb/rockchip/rk3399-orangepi-4.dts -o /boot/dtb/rockchip/rk3399-orangepi-4.dtb
Now, a ttyS1 device shows up, but I'm not sure everything's correct. The miner binary doesn't recognize it yet. The IRQ is probably wrong (wrong pin).
