I have had my Pinebook Pro for a couple years now. It has not held up all that well, but it is still operational.
I followed the instructions for installing Arch with /boot on emmc and / on nvme. As near as I can tell that was successful and the Pinebook Pro boots and I can login with root-root. From there I get nowhere.
I am using the Pinebook Pro dock with an external monitor and ethernet networking. When I attempt to follow on with the instructions I get errors and I do not know how to solve them.
When I try wifi-menu I get:
cannot initialize curses
ālinuxā: unknown terminal type
When I start to do the pacman setup I get:
/usr/bin/pacman-key: line 620: parseopts: command not found
I have been unable to proceed with any update or install of Endeavor. I would appreciate any pointers as to what might be missing or need some tweaking to get working so that I can proceed.
Thank you, I was not expecting such a prompt response.
Those are the directions I followed. I created the SD card using Fedora, and installed /boot on the emmc and ā/ā on the NVME. After installing from the SD card, the Pinebook Pro boots up fine with the SD card removed and I get to the login on the console. I can login fine using root and root.
It is from that point on that I get the errors that I mentioned in my first post that I need help with.
The first part of the instructions on installing Arch work fine. The PBP then starts up fine and I can log in. I do have network connectivity and the ping works fine. When I enter ānano /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlistā I get the following message āError opening terminal: linux.ā
I do not know enough to know what is either missing or mis-configured to get past this point and continuing with the Endeavour install.
Thank you for your prompt responses and have a really nice day.
i do 3 new install on uSD only . log in root everything ok on all . yes i no do " staged boot using eMMC module " i have spare emmc but no have spare nvme"
like @Pudge say prob best move is re install . my guess is some thing go wrong on `
Transfer all data from the microSD card to the NVMe SSD and the eMMC module:
