SATA is not work in Ubuntu 24.04 -- "It worked out"

[douglasdock]

I can't access SATA SSD on Ubuntu 24.04

I read in a message here on the forum that it would be possible to add SATA this way:

added 'overlays=sata' to /boot/firmware/ubuntuEnv.txt

But I can't find the location or the file.

Hello, douglasdock.

How to SATA boot orange pi 5

1. Write ubuntu-22.04-preinstalled-desktop-arm64-orangepi-5.img.xz to the SD card.
2. Insert SD card into orange pi 5 and boot
3. Run sudo u-boot-install-sata-mtd.
4. Download ubuntu-22.04-preinstalled-desktop-arm64-orangepi-5.img.xz.
5. Write ubuntu-22.04-preinstalled-desktop-arm64-orangepi-5.img.xz to /dev/sda.
6. Mount /dev/sda1 to /mnt.
   sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
   7 Add two lines to /mnt/etc/default/u-boot.
   U_BOOT_FDT="device-tree/rockchip/rk3588s-orangepi-5.dtb"
   U_BOOT_FDT_OVERLAYS="device-tree/rockchip/overlay/orangepi-5-sata.dtbo"
7. Edit /mnt/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf.
   fdt /lib/firmware/6.1.0-1013-rockchip/device-tree/rockchip/rk3588s-orangepi-5.dtb
   fdtoverlays /lib/firmware/6.1.0-1013-rockchip/device-tree/rockchip/overlay/orangepi-5-sata.dtbo
   Add.

I think it will look like this after editing:
I think the UUIDs are different.

9. sudo umount /mnt and power off
10. Remove the SD card.
11. power on

Hi, how are you? Thank you for your help and work.
I'm trying to do the tutorial above, but I can't do the command:

"sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt"

When I run the command it returns:
"mount: /mnt: special device /dev/sda1 does not exist.
dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call."

I don't know what to do, if it's possible and anyone has any ideas, I'll be grateful.

And if I use the official Ubuntu image of the orange pi 5, I can identify the SSD and execute the command:

sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt

Here in the official system I can activate the SSD by going to:

orangepi-config

System settings / Hardware / ssd-sata0

Bom dia amigo, tudo bem?
Eu utilizei o sistema oficial para conseguir editar como falado no tutorial a cima:

para conseguir editar os arquivos eu usei os seguintes comandos:

sudo nano /mnt/etc/default/u-boot
sudo nano /mnt/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf

### And it worked!

Thank you very much and here's a tip for anyone having problems.

noticed that extlinux.conf. points to 1013 device-tree even though 1014 is installed on my system. i see the 1014 directory available. is this a bug or intended?
