The graphical installer is not enabled on the arm64 debian-installer images for stretch so the serial console is used. The console device should be detected automatically from the firmware, but if it is not then after you boot linux from the GRUB menu you will see a «Booting Linux» message, then nothing more.

If you hit this issue you will need to set a specific console config on the kernel command line. Hit e for «Edit Kernel command-line» at the GRUB menu, and change

--- quiet

to

console=<device>,<speed>

e.g.

console=ttyAMA0,115200n8

. When finished hit Control+x to continue booting with new setting.

Juno has UEFI so the install is straightforward. The most practical method is installing from USB stick. You need up to date firmware for USB-booting to work. Builds from http://releases.linaro.org/latest/members/arm/ after March 2015 tested OK. Consult Juno documentation on firmware updating.

Prepare a standard arm64 CD image on a USB stick. Insert it in one of the USB ports on the back. Plug a serial cable into the upper 9-pin serial port on the back. If you need networking (netboot image) plug the ethernet cable into the socket on the front of the machine.

Run a serial console at 115200, 8bit no parity, and boot the Juno. It should boot from the USB stick to a GRUB menu. The console config is not correctly detected on Juno so just hitting Enter will show no kernel output. Set the console to

console=ttyAMA0,115200n8

(as described in Раздел 5.1.1, «Console configuration»). Control+x to boot should show you the debian-installer screens, and allow you to proceed with a standard installation.

UEFI is available for this machine but it is normally shipped with U-Boot so you will need to either install UEFI firmware first then use standard boot/install methods, or use U-Boot boot methods. You must use a serial console to control the installation because the graphical installer is not enabled on the arm64 architecture.

The recommended install method is to copy the debian-installer kernel and initrd onto the hard drive, using the openembedded system supplied with the machine, then boot from that to run the installer. Alternatively use TFTP to get the kernel/dtb/initrd copied over and booted (Раздел 5.1.4.1, «Загрузка по TFTP из U-Boot»). After installation, manual changes to boot from the installed image are needed.

Run a serial console at 115200, 8bit no parity, and boot the machine. Reboot the machine and when you see «Hit any key to stop autoboot:» hit a key to get a Mustang# prompt. Then use U-Boot commands to load and boot the kernel, dtb and initrd.

Загрузка по сети требует наличия сетевого подключения и сетевого загрузочного сервера TFTP (и, вероятно, также серверов DHCP, RARP или BOOTP для автоматической настройки по сети).

Настройка сервера для обеспечения загрузки из сети описана в Раздел 4.3, «Подготовка файлов для загрузки по TFTP».
