    Thank you very much ricopt5. It works!!! My WP2 boots LE9 form sdcard. :)

    chewitt, tested your img on WP2 and the ethernet works. :thumbup:

    Thanks, that points fingers to somethig changing in u-boot. The question is what ??

    I don't know if this can help... Below, the diffs in the console booting LE11 (left) and LE12 (right):

    The last line contains the clue .. that's the Hub u-boot binary not the WP2 one. I'll see if I can regenerate the WP2 one (needs some setup as those files were last built on some other machine).

    I would appreciate if you can do it to test if could boot LE9 from SD.

    Watching TV on the WP2 with LE11 and an external USB DVB stick is painful, after a few minutes the artifacts begin and tvheadend shows a lot of continuity counter errors, making it unusable.

    Perhaps the best solution is to buy new hardware. 8)

    Testing LE12.0 nightly (25-02-2024) on wetek-play2, ethernet does not work.

    At boot time appears the message: ethmactool-config service failed, and dmesg shows the next messages about ethernet:


    With LE11 Ethernet works on the same device:

    ¿Driver problem?

    Flashed u-boot to SDcard with LE9.2.8.13.

    The console output:

    No surprises chewitt, tested following the instructions with no success: Bad Linux ARM64 Image magic!

    This is the console output (lines about PHY for ethernet removed):

    Thanks chewitt.

    I have tried both options with the same result: no boot from sdcard

    Attached the serial cable, console shows a boot loop:

    I also tried flashing your testing u-boot on sdcard (https://chewitt.libreelec.tv/testing/u-boot…bin-wetek-play2). The system boots, detect the USB but can't boot de LE 9.2.8, as expected.

    Hi all.

    I was using a Wetek Play 2 with internal tuner with the dtech LE 9.2.8 image installed on the emmc but it suddenly stopped booting. I think it is a hardware failure of the emmc chip.

    I have tried booting from the SD card with different LE9 images with no success.
    Booting from SD card with LE11 and L12 nighly images works but I can't use the internal tuner.

    Is there a way to boot LE9 on WP2 from the SD card without a working emmc?

    Thanks in advance.
