BananaPi M2 Zero Notes

BananaPi M2 Zero Notes

I ran Armbian. It was alright. Some notes:

  • Use armbian-config to get more of the hardware exposed
  • Serial will not be exposed as ttyAMA0 or whatever - it’ll just be ttyS0, ttyS1 and so on. Read dmesg and you will see!

Making SPI exposed in userspace

Solution taken from here

armbianEnv.txt:

1
2
    overlays=spi-spidev 
    param_spidev_spi_bus=0

This gets you to /dev/spidev0.0. Can try modprobe spidev if missing the device.

To be continued, maybe.

If you think that this is bad advice, contact me somehow and let me know. Cheers!
