RE: 请问coolpi 4b 电源输入功率多大合适,有电流保护吗?
@night 机器TYPEC前端电源芯片耐压可以达到28V,极限可以到34V,所以你的适配器规格没有任何问题。
开发板的电源部分一直是我们设计最优先考虑的方向,所以前端第一级电源花了很多功夫,考虑到用户各种各样适配器的规格,最终选择目前国内少数几家真正能做车规级别电源方案的厂家。尽量保证前端电源稳定可靠。

Cool Pi Cm5-Laptop Linux Quick Start Guide
Machine Introduction
COOLPI CM5 open-source notebook is a product that combines high performance, portability, and open-source spirit. It not only meets the basic computing needs of users, but also provides an ideal platform for those who enjoy free exploration and technological creation.
Installing the system
The machine is installed with Ubuntu 22.04 system by default at the factory. If users need other versions, they can update them according to the following tutorial.
The default username for the machine is: coolpi Password: 123Download image
As shown in the following figure: System images can be downloaded through 百度网盘 or Onedrive.
Select the image that needs to be updated, and the image type will continue to be updated.
Download tools
Coolpi defaults to using Etcher to update system images, which can be obtained through Baidu Cloud, Onedrive, or the official website.
Machine enters UMS mode
The Type-C port of the machine is connected to the computer. When the Coolpi laptop is turned off, it can quickly press the power button multiple times, usually no less than 8 times, and the machine will enter MUS mode. The computer will recognize an icon for a USB drive. As shown in the following figure:
The X86 computer will recognize a UMS device.
Load image and flash
Follow the three steps shown in the figure to burn the image file. After the burning is completed, a forced restart is required. The method of forced power down is to continue holding down the power button for 10 seconds.
After downloading, restart the machine as shown in the following figure.
Update kernel
The kernel of Coolpi will continue to be updated, and users can also compile the mainline kernel themselves to upgrade the machine, following the steps below. The compilation of the kernel part in the following figure is completed on the Coolpi laptop, and users can also cross compile on the X86 computer. The method and steps are the same.
Synchronize kernel
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get install git git clone https://github.com/yanyitech/coolpi-kernel.git
Compile kernel
First, install the git toolkit, and it is best to update the system to the latest version before installation. Install some kernel dependent packages, then run the compilation script, enter numbers to select the corresponding machine model, and the compilation can proceed normally.
sudo apt-get install flex bison libssl-dev sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python3.10 /usr/bin/python cd coolpi-kernel ./build-kernel.sh Welcome to using Coolpi Development Board! ------------------------------------------ Please enter a number to select your machine 1. cp4b 2. cp4b-hdmi-in 3. cm5-evb 4. cm5-evb-v11 5. cm5-minipc 6. cm5-notebook 7. cm5-notebook-v20 8. cm5-8uart 9. cpnano 10. exit Enter option number: 7
Upgrade machine kernel
After the normal compilation of the kernel, an out folder will be generated with the directory, which contains all the files required by the kernel. You can update the newly compiled kernel to the machine by using the following command.
Use the following command to update the kernel.sudo cp ./out/* /boot/firmware -R sudo rm /lib/modules/* -R sudo tar -zxvf ./out/modules.tar.gz -C /lib/ sync sudo reboot
If the kernel was cross compiled using X86 machines, the kernel can be updated using the following methods:
- Use the Samba shared folder to copy the compiled files to the Coolpi machine.
- Use mobile storage devices such as USB drives to copy.
- The coolpi machine enters UMS mode, connects to the X86 computer, enters the USM mobile disk, deletes all files, and copies all files in the generated out directory to the UMS mobile disk. Then force a restart of the Coolpi laptop.
Change the startup logo
Users can update the startup logo of the machine by copying files, using the following command.
sudo cp ./logo.bmp /boot/firmware sync sudo reboot
Below is a standard format for a logo file that users can download and modify. Please note that the pixel size, name, and format of the file should not be changed.
logo.zipFrequently asked questions
The machine cannot enter UMS mode
Due to incomplete image updates, the partition table of EMMC is damaged, and the machine cannot enter UMS burning mode. The following methods can be used to repair the EMMC partition table.
- A USB interface mobile storage device with a capacity of no less than 16GB, and an X86 computer can burn any image to the USB device through ETCHER software.
- Insert USB storage device into the USB interface of the Coolpi laptop
- The machine will first start from the USB storage device when turned on. Then enter the system. Format EMMC using the following command.
sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/mmcblk0

Coolpi uses UMS to update the system
Coolpi supports UMS to update emmc firmware, as follows:
- Update the latest versions of loader and uboot images. You can also synchronize uboot code and compile it yourself.
git clone https://github.com/yanyitech/coolpi-loader cd coolpi-loader ./build-uboot.sh cp4b
- Connect a dual A port USB cable to the computer and the upper USB 3.0 interface. Plug in the power and press the power button three times, and the machine will enter UMS mode.
- Use Etcher software to update the software.

RE: Cool Pi ARM Notebook Preview
@ngavarta
In the early stage, there was a plan to use a copper tube heat sink as shown in the figure below for heat dissipation between the CM5 and the fan. Later, the machines shipped were changed to passive graphite copper sheet heat dissipation.

RE: Booting from USB drive
- It is recommended to use a USB 2.0 interface driver as the boot disk.
- You can also put the system into single user mode and set the ROOT password, which will involve modifying CMDLINE.

RE: Ubuntu 24.04 for CM5 Laptop
@Rock
At present, the maximum version supported by coolpi laptop is 23.04. Ubuntu 24.04 has just been released a few days ago and adaptation will take some time. It is expected that a version will be released in May. Thank you for your support.
