I recently purchased one of these, and I'm trying to get Gentoo to run on it.

On the LiveCD, I've observed the following:

- Internal storage is recognized as a mmcblk0 device (64 GB)
- dmesg reflects the following entries showing the driver being loaded

Code:

So, I've enabled the SDHCI drivers into the kernel (embedded). Here is the relevant kernel config options:

Code:

#
# MMC/SD/SDIO Host Controller Drivers
#
# CONFIG_MMC_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI=y
CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_IO_ACCESSORS=y
CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_PCI=y
CONFIG_MMC_RICOH_MMC=y
CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_ACPI=y
# CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_PLTFM is not set
# CONFIG_MMC_WBSD is not set
# CONFIG_MMC_TIFM_SD is not set
# CONFIG_MMC_SDRICOH_CS is not set
# CONFIG_MMC_CB710 is not set
# CONFIG_MMC_VIA_SDMMC is not set
# CONFIG_MMC_VUB300 is not set
CONFIG_MMC_USHC=y
# CONFIG_MMC_USDHI6ROL0 is not set
CONFIG_MMC_CQHCI=y
# CONFIG_MMC_HSQ is not set
# CONFIG_MMC_TOSHIBA_PCI is not set
# CONFIG_MMC_MTK is not set
# CONFIG_MEMSTICK is not set
CONFIG_NEW_LEDS=y
CONFIG_LEDS_CLASS=y
# CONFIG_LEDS_CLASS_FLASH is not set
# CONFIG_LEDS_CLASS_MULTICOLOR is not set
# CONFIG_LEDS_BRIGHTNESS_HW_CHANGED is not set

Output of lspci:

Code:

livecd ~ # lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Series SoC Transaction Register (rev 36)

01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 15)

Upon booting into the device without the LiveCD, it gets a kernel panic message saying it cannot mount the /dev/mmcblk0p3 device. For whatever reason, it seems the kernel doesn't bother loading the SDHCI drivers before attempting to mount the root partition.

Any help is appreciated.

Have you tried the kernel parameter "rootwait" or "rootdelay=" ? (see here: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.html )

Just tried that. It seems it has some other internal storage for it's own built in UEFI boot utility, and it shows up as /dev/sda, but after 45 seconds, still no mmcblk0 device.

Bigun,

Code:

[ 20.070463] mmcblk0: mmc0:0001 SLD64G 57.6 GiB
[ 20.070738] mmcblk0boot0: mmc0:0001 SLD64G partition 1 4.00 MiB
[ 20.071020] mmcblk0boot1: mmc0:0001 SLD64G partition 2 4.00 MiB
[ 20.071166] mmcblk0rpmb: mmc0:0001 SLD64G partition 3 4.00 MiB, chardev (250:0)
[ 20.148034] cfg80211: Loading compiled-in X.509 certificates for regulatory database
[ 20.156578] mmcblk0: p1 p2 p3

There is mmcblk0 with 3 partitions but look at the sizes. They all appear to be 4Mb.
You need several GB to install gentoo.
It seems that mmcblk0 is around 64GB. The reported size is 57.6 GiB, so that might well be your card.

Put your entire kernel .config onto a pastebin site.

You will need rootwait to boot as SD card detection is slow and asynchronous but that's not you immediate problem.

Bigun,

You have three mmc devices there.

Code:

[ 19.668583] mmc0: SDHCI controller on ACPI [80860F14:00] using ADMA
[ 19.669836] mmc1: SDHCI controller on ACPI [80860F14:01] using ADMA
[ 19.957130] mmc2: SDHCI controller on ACPI [80860F14:02] using ADMA

mmc0 looks to be built in. That's strange partition name and sizes for a Gentoo install.

Code:

Go back to the liveUSB. Boot without your SD card installed and see if mmcblk0 is still there.

Code:

[ 20.397588] brcmfmac: brcmf_fw_alloc_request: using brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio for chip BCM4345/6
[ 20.397752] brcmfmac mmc1:0001:1: Direct firmware load for brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.bin failed with error -2

That tells that mmc1 is your Wifi.
You need

Code:

# CONFIG_BRCMFMAC is not set

and the SDIO option in that menu.
Modules work. The firmware should be in linux-firmware.

I have a feeling that mmc2 is your Gentoo install.

While you are on the live USB, please post the output of

Code:

lspci -nnk

so we can see Vendor and Device IDs along with the kernel drivers is use.

Oh sorry, there never was an SD card installed. I'm guessing it's either built in, or inside the case where I can't get to it.

Bigun,

In that case, mmcblk0 must be your gentoo install.

What does

Code:

fdisk -t dos -l /dev/mmcblk0

and

Code:

fdisk -t gpt -l /dev/mmcblk0

say?
