4 Get Started

4.1 Essentials You Need

Before starting to use your NanoPi A64 get the following items ready

  • NanoPi A64
  • microSD Card/TFCard: Class 10 or Above, minimum 8GB SDHC
  • microUSB power. A 5V/2A power is a must
  • HDMI monitor
  • USB keyboard and mouse, and a USB HUB would be better
  • A Host computer running Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit system

4.2 TF Cards We Tested

To make your NanoPi A64 boot and run fast we highly recommend you use a Class10 8GB SDHC TF card or a better one. The following cards are what we used in all our test cases presented here:

  • SanDisk TF 8G Class10 Micro/SD TF card:

SanDisk MicroSD 8G

  • SanDisk TF128G MicroSDXC TF 128G Class10 48MB/S:

SanDisk MicroSD 128G

  • 川宇 8G C10 High Speed class10 micro SD card:

chuanyu MicroSD 8G

4.3 Make an Installation TF Card

4.3.1 Get Image File

Get the following files from download link to download image files (under the officail-ROMs directory) and the flashing utility(under the tools directory):

Image Files
nanopi-a64-core-qte-sd4g.img.zip a Light Ubuntu-core system with a Qt Embedded GUI library
nanopi-a64-ubuntu-mate-sd4g.img.zip Ubuntu with a MATE-desktop
Flash Utility:
win32diskimager.rar Windows utility. Under Linux users can use "dd"
PhoenixCard_V310.rar Windows utility for flashing Android image. Attention: the "dd" command under Linux doesn't work for flashing Android image
HDDLLF.4.40.exe Windows utility for formatting a TF card

4.3.2 制作Ubuntu-core系统TF卡

将固件nanopi-a64-core-qte-sd4g.img.zip和烧写工具win32diskimager.rar分别解压,在Windows系统下插入TF卡(限4G及以上的卡),以管理员身份运行win32diskimager工具, 在win32diskimager工具的界面上,选择你的TF卡盘符,选择系统固件,点击Write按钮烧写即可。 当制作完成TF卡后,拔出TF卡插入NanoPi A64的TF卡槽,上电启动(注意,这里需要5V/2A的供电),你可以看到绿灯常亮以及蓝灯闪烁,这时你已经成功启动 NanoPi A64。
