Hi all, sometimes the boot process frozes at the following line: [ 3.114400] Waiting for root device /dev/sda1... The Sata is recognized by the U-Boot but seems that the process hangs between the loading of the driver and the loading of the rest of the OS. Googling the string seems that the problem affects several platforms that use U-Boot, and I wonder if there is some work-around to implement for the UDOO board to have the confidence that the system boots itself every time that i plug the power. The U-Boot version is U-Boot 2013.10-rc3 and the OS is the udoo_quad_ubuntu1204_v2.1. Thanks in advance, Marco
Any update on this? I'm seeing the same issue.

I've solved the issue changing the disk type from mechanical to SSD (Intel 320 Series 40GB). Now the system boots up without any problem. I'was thinking that the problem was a lack of support of the old mechanical disk. But now that I see your post I'm quite confused. In this week I'll try to post more information on the new disk performance. In the meanwhile could you tell me how the disk is powered and the frequency of the problem?
I'm still unable to boot to SATA SSD. If I mess around with uboot settings I get either this error, or a kernel panic. Oddly enough when I replace my SSD with a spinning drive it boots just fine. Go figure!
Hi, i have the same problem, after setting everything up with the tutorial from elinux.

Hi nicoj10, could you try to reinstall UDOObuntu on a microSD and try to reconfigurate the boot device from the UDOO configuration tool? Which is the partition on the SATA disk? Ext3?
I'm not sure if this worked for me yet, as I had been trying all sorts of other stuff, but it certainly produced a different boot result. The annoying thing is I looked up how to boot with sata on the site, which took me to the wiki, which has uboot environment variables to be set. Obviously, the built in tool to change things is much easier, but I didn't even look at Ubuntu much once it booted. So, in short, fix the wiki please.....PLEASE! I'll report when I finish reinstalling the image... Oh, and while I'm on the topic of fixing things, can you update the downloads page with a statement about how the tarballs are no longer available so we don't tear our hair out looking for a nonexistent link? I had thought perhaps I misunderstood and the sd image couldn't be dd'd to the target drive, so I wanted to try an alternate route that the wiki states, and several unofficial sources state is possible. Again, please fix these things. If you make a change, tell us that you made it, so when we come in may 2015, having never heard of udoo, never followed it, finding old documentation, we can get the story we're missing..it would *REALLY* help! Update: Ok well, that was interesint, uboot could see the sata drive fine, but somehow both the image on the SSD and the image on the SD Card lost the ability to see the sata drive. Booting led to a panic of not being able to see a device sda1 and run mmcboot and running fdisk, gparted, etc showed no device other than the SD Card. What did that option do? Clearly more than just setting uboot environment variables....I'm trying once more, everything reflashed, then ust using the tool, but I've not got high hopes. I'm not sure why all these SBCs have issues, and why all makers of them move on before ever fixing the issues with their current boards! Update 2: Yup, same thing, Use the udoo config, set sata to be boot device, and the system can't find the sata drive anymore. Lovely. Here's the log attempting to boot from it....gotta snip it to fit....

Yes, I'm *STILL* trying just to get this booting off the SSD. Really wanted that working tonight....Not going to happen. So here's what I noticed: In the wiki, there is no rootwait in the instructions, or at least, I somehow ended up without it. If I add rootwait, I *ALWAYS* get that waiting for root filesystem on /dev/sda1 that this post was started for. As I said, somehow it was removed, and that's where I got the kernel panic from. I redownloaded the images, verified the sha1 hashes, reset the uboot env, fresh flash of both the SD card and the SSD, interrupted the boot and hit run sataboot, and ended up with the waiting.... If I boot the SD card, it will see the SSD, let me play with it with gparted, etc. The second I tell it to make the SSD the default boot device, the SDCard can't see the SSD ever again, and nothing works. What Gives? This *should* be a simple problem. SATA is sata right? The drive is a new Samsung 850 EVO drive. Same mex controller that was in the 840 EVO series. Shouldn't really be an issue there, and as I said, the SD Card sees the drive. Why can't it boot?!
