Step4: Set up your Banana Pi M2+
According to the set up diagram below, you can easily set up your Banana Pi.
1. Insert the written-image SD card that to the SD card spot on the left side edge of the
underside of the board.
2. 2.On the bottom "edge" in the middle of the board is the HDMI Type A (Full sized)
port.Just connect any HDMI cable from the board to your TV or HDMI Monitor.
3. Plug a USB keyboard and mouse into the USB slots located on the right edge.
4. Just under the USB ports on the right edge is the Ethernet connector for anyone who
wants to plug the Banana Pi into a wired network.
5. 5.Finally, at the very left of the bottom edge is the USB power connector. Plug in a
regulated power supply that is rated at 5V ±5% / 2000mA (or 2A). Any number bigger
than 700 mA will also work. Avoid using the smaller chargers used for small GSM
phones, as these are often unregulated, even if they claim "5V 1A", they may do "5V"
and may do "1A", but not at the same time!
If all goes well, the Banana Pi will boot in a few minutes. The screen will display the OS GUI.
Step5: Shut down your Banana Pi
You can use the GUI to shut down the Banana Pi safely.
Also you can run the command in the terminal:
sudo halt or sudo shutdown –h
This will shut down the PI safely, (just use the power key to turn off might damage the SD-
cards file system).After that you can press the power key for 5 seconds to turn it off.
If all is well ,so you can use banana pi M2+ now.

mainline Linux
Many open source development help us to use mainline linux on BPI-M2+.
if someone want to help use ,please contact us ,we will send free sample to you.
mainline Linux 61
Mainline uboot
start with Sinovoip_BPI_M2_plus_defconfig (tested with 2016.03 and sun8i-h3-bananapi-
m2plus.dts from below).
It can boot from eMMC, the SD card or via FEL.
mainline Linux 62
BPI-M2+ mainline kernel

Initial H3 patches have been submitted to the mainline kernel, but have not landed yet.
Currently you can find these patches in the arm-linux mailing list, or alternatively in one of
the work-in-progress kernel forks:
Maxime Ripard's branch 'sunxi/for-next' at

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/mripard/linux.git/log/?h=sunxi/for-next (very
basic H3 support, without USB)
Hans de Goede's branch 'sunxi-wip' at https://github.com/jwrdegoede/linux-
sunxi/tree/sunxi-wip (many work-in-progress patches, including H3 and USB support for
it)
Siarhei Siamashka's branch '20151223-h3-mainline-smp-hack' at
https://github.com/ssvb/linux-sunxi/tree/20151223-h3-mainline-smp-hack (minimal set of
H3 patches, with USB and SMP)
sun8i-h3-bananapi-m2plus.dts:http://pastebin.com/sKfj2tTW (everything working except of

WiFi/BT due to lack of interest)
mainline Linux 63
Armbian official image for BPI-M2+

Armbian Linux have official support BPI-M1,BPI-M1+,BPI-M2,BPI-M2+

4，create new : blink.c
#include <wiringPi.h>
int main(void)
{
wiringPiSetup() ;
pinMode (0, OUTPUT) ;
for(;;)
{
digitalWrite(0, HIGH) ; delay (500) ;
digitalWrite(0, LOW) ; delay (500) ;
}
}
compile and run it:
gcc -Wall -o blink blink.c -lwiringPi
runing it:
sudo ./blink
BPI have many extend board support WiringPi. so you can free DIY by youself:

H3 Manual build howto

banana pi BPI-M2+ use allwinner H3 chip onboard.
This page describes the process to combine Allwinners binary boot0, an SDK U-Boot, an
SDK linux kernel and other bits together to create a useful SD-card from scratch, the basis
for further hacking.
This page is only suited for H3 based devices, please look under See also for other manual
build howtos.
We of course do not build a whole distribution, we only build U-Boot, the kernel and a
handful of tools, and then use an existing rootfs to get a useful system. Depending on the
rootfs size, you might want to use a 2GB or larger SD Card. SD-card partitioning and
formatting will be taken care of later.

Allwinner GPL_Violations
Allwinner has repeatedly violated the GPL (and by proxy so have most hardware
manufacturers and resellers using or selling products based on Allwinner chipsets). Either by
not providing (Linux/Android) kernel or u-boot source at all, or by delivering trees with pre-
built binaries and no matching source code. They even blatantly use LGPL licensed code in
their userspace libraries for media decoding.
Over time, Allwinner has only increased the binary blobs present in their kernel trees,
showing clearly that - even though Allwinner in the meantime joined Linaro - it is not
progressing. Quite the opposite actually, and one has to worry about what value Linaro
membership really has if a member is allowed to behave like this. Allwinner also joined the
Linux Foundation as of June 2015, while compliance issues clearly remain.

Allwinner GPL_Violations 74
Linux mainlining effort

The purpose of this page is to try and define sub-goals and milestones for the mainlining
effort, containing goals and sub-goals with milestones for adding Allwinner support in the
upstream mainline Linux Kernel.
It is very important to note that this is intended as a rough set of minimal goals - it is not
meant to collide with the huge effort of rewriting major drivers!
