===== Debian Install =====

At the moment, this is the latest image: http://forum.banana-pi.org/t/bpi-m3-new-image-raspbian-jessie-bpi-m3-img-2016-07-13/2009

It can easily be upgraded to Stretch, just replace the repos in /etc/apt/, update & upgrade. 

Here is a Howto: https://www.sendner.net/banana-pi-m3-debian-image-zu-stretch-rc5-updaten/


===== BugFixes =====

=== No Boot ===

Unplug HDMI when connecting Power or sometimes it doesn't boot


=== No Boot after Upgrade ===

Do NOT use this image: Debian-8-jessie-mate-gpu-bpi-m3-sd-emmc.img 2016-5-16 - after Upgrade it's broken, because it contains an incompatible armbian repo. Check:
  dpkg -l | egrep "armbian| linux"
  cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/armbian.list  # remove armbian line, if exists

=== Fix HDMI to DVI Adapter ===

Just edit /boot/bananapi/bpi-m3/linux uEnv.txt file

or use sunxi-tools to convert the bootscript to fex and change this:
  hdmi_cts_compatibility = 1

=== Change HDMI resolution ===

**Edit /boot/bananapi/bpi-m3/linux uEnv.txt**: There are some Example "bootargs" lines. Use one of those or append something like:
   disp.screen0_output_type=3 disp.screen0_output_mode=10 disp.screen1_output_type=3 disp.screen1_output_mode=10

type:3 mode:10 = HDMI 1080P
