    I might be wrong but I think you are rebooting to recovery. Boot from the USB then try to make it boot to normal startup. The usb booting is a recovery hack to make the system boot it from recovery.


  • thanks for the reply what you mean ? so the command dont make the box boot without usb so i have to leave the usb there all time ? or how i do the starup ?

    Did you try installing again? The instructions say it might happen.


    CAUTION: If your box has a non-standard partition layout, you will see an error when trying to boot from internal memory for the first time. To solve it, you need to boot one more time from SD card and run installtointernal again.

    yes i did install it like 10 time also tested diferent version still black screen with no usb if i add the usb it will boot nice

  • Some boxes don't allow writing device tree outside recovery, I have yet to discover why. One workaround that I found (it might not be working all the time) is to execute fw_setenv upgrade_step 2 before running installtointernal. This might help writing device tree to internal partition.
