Many errors with Omega2 .. opkg segfaults, unable to upgrade firmware.



  • Hi All,

    I got my very first Omega2 plus the dock, today.

    By following the online documentation, I was able to connect to the /dev/ttyUSB0.

    I am facing some issues:

    1: I am not able to update it using the admin page http://192.168.3.1. While updating the "progress bar" stops after some time. I can see that it is downloading "omega2-v0.3.2-b233.bin" to /tmp and the size of the file ceases to grow after it grows to 4-5MB

    Attempt 1:
    -rw------- 1 root root 4014437 Jul 31 08:22 omega2-v0.3.2-b233.bin

    Attempt 2:
    -rw------- 1 root root 4916597 Jul 31 08:22 omega2-v0.3.2-b233.bin

    2: When I try "opkg update" it says:
    "Signature check failed" for:
    http://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/targets/ramips/mt7688/packages/Packages.sig

    3: when I try "opkg list-upgradable", it Segfaults.
    root@Omega-CCC9:/# opkg list-upgradable
    [ 879.267537]
    do_page_fault(): sending SIGSEGV to opkg for invalid read access from 00000000

    [ 879.285836]
    Segmentation fault

    4: while booting it gives:
    *** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment

    5: Another warning/error I am getting is:
    spidev spi32766.1: buggy DT: spidev listed directly in DT

    I am wondering if all the above are pointing to a faulty Omega2 board.
    Would you suggest to wait update it later ?

    Please advise. Thanks in advance..

    The following are the details (please let me know if more details are needed):

    Could you please provide the link to the page?
    Thanks.



  • @tjoseph1 This is a known forum spammer. Ignore him,

    I can see from your opkg update errors you have quite an old firmware version.

    Run oupgrade -f to upgrade to the latest firmware



  • @crispyoz
    Oh, I didn't know about Findlay.. This is my very first day in this forum :)..Thanks..

    I think, the web-interface at http://192.168.3.1 is not behaving the way it used to be. When I try calling the URL all I get is a text page now, with the content:

    directory - 0.00 kbyte
    <<<

    Moreover, it is not a station anymore.. I don't have the route to reach outside..I would need to figure out how to configure this to associate with my WiFi AP from the command line. No "wpa_supplicant.conf", and "interfaces".
    Could you tell me if uci is the right way to go ?

  • @tjoseph1 Welcome to the forum.

    I suggest you should first do a factory reset so you are working with a device in a known state.

    The documentation is here:

    https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/factory-reset.html

    Once you have completed the reset, you can connect to your wifi by using the command wifisetup and following the prompts.

    Once you are connected to your wifi run oupgrade -f

    That should get you sorted out.



  • @crispyoz
    Thank you very much .. I followed the documentation as suggested:
    https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/factory-reset.html
    commands:
    firstboot -y
    sync
    reboot
    Surprisingly, those did not get me the webserver back to a working condition..Finally, I ended up up downloading the FW "omega2-v0.3.2-b233.bin" from http://repo.onioniot.com/omega2/images/ (that was the FW version it was trying to download, during my first attempts when I was using the WebGUI as mentioned in my original post) using web-browser. Then I "scp"ed the FW to /tmp. Basically I was following: https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/manual-firmware-installation.html, and did the upgrade from minicom serial terminal.

    root@Omega-CCC9:/tmp# sysupgrade -n omega2-v0.3.2-b233.bin

    The upgrade screen resembled the one provided in the above URL After reboot, I don't have the following errors in my original post:

    2 => opkg does not give "Signature check failed" anymore
    3 => opkg list-upgradable", it does not Segfaults.

    As a side note, the "reset" button was not resetting the omega2 earlier; it is working now. Also, have noticed the earlier GUI was more "feature-rich". I remember seeing GPIO controls etc. in the old version. The newer version does not have those. So far good.

    Now, my question would be:
    The latest FW avaiable at http://repo.onioniot.com/omega2/images/ is omega2-v0.3.2-b244.bin. I chose omega2-v0.3.2-b233.bin, since it was the one the "automatic upgrade process" picked. I am not sure why it selected that version of FW. Can I upgrade to b244.bin?

    Also, it might be more helpful if the sha256sum or so is provided in the website along with the bin files.

    Thanks for all your help..

  • @tjoseph1 You can ignore the CRC error, there is a tech note about it somewhere, I don't have time to find the link right now, maybe someone can post it for you.

    I haven't used the GUI (Onion-OS) for a long time but you can add apps to the UI, take a look at the details here:

    https://onion.io/2bt-onion-os-new-stable-fw-oct16/



  • Got the following outputs for "oupgrade"

    root@Omega-CCC9:~# oupgrade -c

    Device Firmware Version: 0.3.2 b233
    Checking latest version online...
    url: https://api.onioniot.com/firmware/omega2/stable
    Repo Firmware Version: 0.3.2 b233
    Comparing version numbers
    Device firmware is up to date!

    Appears that b233 is the latest stable, as per the output received from " oupgrade -c". May be b244 is not marked as stable. So I would go with this.

    My ultimate goal is to use Omega platform to run a C application(WiFi plus UART, SPI and I2C for interfacing). Started with Omega2 in order to make myself familiar with the platform and Omega2 was the one readily available locally. At this point, I would think going through https://github.com/OnionIoT/ shall provide a better picture; also downloaded the CPU data sheet from https://labs.mediatek.com/en/chipset/MT7688. Next is to order a few 32M/128M units and docks from digikey.

    Thanks a lot, gentlemen.



  • @tjoseph1 I would suggest you look at the specs for the Omega2(+) and Omega2S(+), the 2S is the surface mounted version and exposes more resources than the plugin version.



  • @crispyoz I would order Omega2+, the 32M/128M. In fact, I read that the (+) is the recommended model for development. Still, could procure only Omega2 locally. Digikey would take take 2 weeks or so. Finally, plan to use the SMD version, with custom PCB and power.

    Though I was able to boot RPi Zero W with cross-compiled OpenWRT 18.06.8 last week, Omega2S(+) will be easier from the hardware perspective. I am happy with the progress made in the past few days. Really appreciate all your help.. šŸ™‚
    Thanks again.
