Hi,

The board failed to boot ubuntu image provided on Solidrun web site.

1. download ubuntu-cn9132-cex7-mmc:1:0.img.xz  
$ wget [https://solid-run-images.sos-de-fra-1.exo.io/CN913x/cn913x\_build/20230626-8d5f7fe/ubuntu-cn9132-cex7-mmc\:1\:0.img.xz](https://solid-run-images.sos-de-fra-1.exo.io/CN913x/cn913x_build/20230626-8d5f7fe/ubuntu-cn9132-cex7-mmc%5C:1%5C:0.img.xz)

2. flash the image into a USB disk (/dev/sdb)  
$ xz -dc ubuntu-cn9132-cex7-mmc:1:0.img.xz | sudo dd of=/dev/sdb bs=4k conv=fdatasync status=progress

3. insert the USB stick to the baseboard with CN9132 COM mounted and power on it.  
Likely, the Linux kernel could not mount root filesystem.

CN9132 boot log is as below URL, [cn9132-boot-log-0911](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JTj0wLNwIzj8NgeEYb2CRkxfn1NaIdUW/view?usp=sharing)

The boot up stopped at line# 631 (Waiting for root device ) below,

If the rootfs is found and runs the init script, etc. and eventually enters ubuntu shell. This is the outcome I’d like to see it.

Could you please advise how to resolve it?

Regards,  
Jim (C.H.) Chen
