Error on booting Debian 12 on BABYMEGA

Support Linux Support

When booting, I get this error: Gave up waiting for suspend/resume device done.
Begin: Waiting for root file system … Begin: Running /scripts/local-block …done.
Gave up waiting for root file system device. Common problems:
-Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
-Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
-Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)

Are you using RW_LEGACY or Full ROM?

3

Did you try some thing like fedora or arch?

4

I don’t have access to another device to create new installation media for a while, and I’m using RW_LEGACY so I didn’t have to remove the battery.

5

You can flash using chrome os.

6

Chrome OS isn’t installed.

7

I assume you have a phone so you can use
EtchDroid.

8

I have borrowed a device to create installation media.

9

Ok

10

Maybe @MrChromebox can help.

11

how do you not have ChromeOS installed and not be able to boot your install media? Makes no sense.

RW_LEGACY is for dual booting, if you’re wanting to wipe ChromeOS you need the UEFI Full ROM firmware. period.

That’s what I thought.

13

I can boot my installation media, but after installing I can’t boot my fresh install.

14

I get a similar error under fedora, with UEFI Full ROM firmware.

15

Did you install the OS onto the integrated eMMC Storage or did you install to an SD-Card?

16

SD card, is that the problem?

17

At least thats my guess.
In the Documentation it says “MicroSD detection issues” for Babymega on Linux.

I reinstalled to eMMC and it works, but my microphone only works some of the time even after running the audio script.
