Hi everyone,

this is indeed a good suggestion, I ran into such an issue myself, actually
had it with Armbian and was pointed here by the Armbian devs:

https://forum.armbian.com/topic/4767-powering-through-micro-usb

Apparently even picking a different USB cable can make a difference.

What I observed was that LEDs went off at some point during kernel
startup and the board went dead. After being pointed to the above link I
tried a much stronger USB power suppy (from an Acer netbook) and then
it suddenly worked without any modifications to the software.

I have a tinker-board-s, I am using it with meta-rockhip and I can confirm that
it works for me (also using UART2 on the pins described by Trevor), so the
layer as such should work...

Kind regards,
