I'm unable to install onto the nand on one of my cubieboards. This is the error message:

cubie@Cubian:~$ sudo ~/nandinstall/install.sh

The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?

I've never had anything installed on the nand memory before and on my other cubieboard nandinstall worked just fine.

  • did you get some news on this ? Sry I can't help, I didn't use this script. I did it from the cubian-nandinstall pckg ( apt-get cubian-nandinstall / sudo cubian-nandinstall )

  • I've since reinstalled on a new sdcard, but still, cubian-nandinstall (from apt) doesn't work. It doesn't boot from NAND. Mar 25, 2014 at 20:45

Well, What happens when you turn on the cubieboard without the microSD? Runs the android? or only shows a green bar? If only shows the green bar is likely you have a problem with the partition of the nand (don't try to do a partition if it was a hdd).

Use the next command as root since the microSD

./nand-part -f a20 /dev/nand 32768 'bootloader 20480' 'boot 512' 'rootfs 0'

You can download nand-part from here nand-part
