lanefu

I've been using the 1MB D1 Mini lite clones with WLED..... it's been a bit of a challenge to get them to flash properly. Especially when compling my own build of the firmware

esphomeflasher defaults to using the qio method. DOUT seems to work..

how to flash manually

esptool --port /dev/ttyUSB0 write_flash --flash_mode dout --flash_size 1MB 0x000 esp01_1m/firmware.bin

1MB warning

bwaaaah eliminate hairpinning to cpu and just use wan link

This will eliminate bridge networking, and move DHCP explicity to the WAN interface (port next to usb3) on the espressobin. Approach can be applied to the lan interfaces as well

caveat: TODO: need to double check mac addresses are probaly assigned to the interfaces and not just duplicating eth0 This involves setting MACs correctly in u-boot environment

fix services

systemctl disable NetworkManager

vyos for armbian

update

I gave up. vyos docker + maclan looks much more managable

steps to implementaiton

checkout vyos build
checkout all submodules

This covers the most critical questions for new orange pi users

Q: I just got an Orange Pi. What should I install?

A: install Armbian

Q: I want to do XYZ with my Orange Pi, where shoud I start?

A: install Armbian

Espressobin

I haven't tried mainline kernel. just 4.4.x. Seems to work with Xenial and Jessie

pre-flight

make note of the MAC addresseses on the switch ports.. the 2 close together will be LAN1 and LAN2 in the OS. eth1addr and ethaddr2 in u-boot. The 3rd address will be for WAN in the OS aka ethaddr in u-boot

the WAN port is in-line with the SDcard slot on the board.... use that as your primary NIC for now.

building

Use my branch, or hopefully igor's once my merge request has been added. Standard armbian building expertise applies.

Overview

Use my fork of the Wiring-Pi Python library which checks out the WiringOP fork of the WiringPi library as a submodule to build everything. yes that's a little confusing

The WiringPI library is the original C library that RaspGPIO is somewhat based on. WiringPi was built to replicate arduino GPIO functions

In Raspberry Pi Land there are 2 normal python paths for GPIO. One is Raspi.GPIO and the other is WiringPI

	#!/bin/bash
	cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory
	while [[ /bin/true ]];do
	date
	for item in $(ls memory.usage); do echo $item $(echo echo $(echo $(cat $item) /1024/1024 \|bc))M;done
	echo "container count $(docker ps -a\|wc -l)"
	echo
	sleep 10s
	done



	## do this before hand
	## vyatta will try to eval show under the wrong circumstances
	show dhcp leases > /tmp/leases.txt
	### dump below in a file, execute with bash
	MY_INTERNAL_DOMAIN=your_internal_domain.local
	IFS=$'\n'
	for line in $(printf "$(cat /tmp/leases.txt\|tail -n +3\|awk '{print $6, $1, $2}')")
	do
