Hardware Notes

Warning

This One-KVM image has been tested on ZTE B863AV3.2M and CM311-1a-CH. Other S905L3A boxes may not be fully compatible. If incompatible, consider the Docker-based deployment below.

When using armbian-install, the following devices/DTBs are supported:

Integrated Image Deployment

1. Write the integrated image to a USB drive or TF card
2. Boot into Android TV
3. In Android TV, obtain ROOT and install an APK to switch boot to external media (USB/TF)
4. Use the APK to boot into Armbian from external media, then run armbian-install to install to eMMC using the correct model

Install example:

Docker Deployment

1. Flash a ROOT-capable Android and install the APK to switch external boot
2. Prepare a bootable Armbian on a USB drive; boot it using Android
3. Use armbian-install to write Armbian to eMMC
4. Replace package mirrors; install Docker
5. Run One-KVM in Docker, ensure the OTG port is set to device mode, and make it start at boot. After confirming the container is healthy, enable Docker and container autorun

Commands:

• Run the kvmd container

  sudo docker run --name kvmd -itd --privileged=true \
      -v /lib/modules:/lib/modules:ro -v /dev:/dev \
      -v /sys/kernel/config:/sys/kernel/config -e OTG=1 -e VIDEONUM=1 \
      -p 8080:8080 -p 4430:4430 -p 5900:5900 -p 623:623 \
      registry.cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/silentwind/kvmd
  

• Set OTG to device mode

  # Enable OTG device mode
  sudo echo device > /sys/class/usb_role/ffe09000.usb-role-switch/role
  # Add the above to /etc/rc.local
  sudo nano /etc/rc.local
  # Make executable
  sudo chmod +x /etc/rc.local
  

• Enable autorun

  sudo systemctl enable docker
  sudo docker update --restart=always kvmd
