I was not able to repeat your success from a fresh image flashed to the wiped new 128GB sdcard. I don’t say this lightly either. I tried 3 times with the same results starting with a fresh image of starfive-jh7110-VF2-SD-wayland.img that was booting with the pink desktop.
I’ve tried your steps 1 to 5 and the boot process seems to freeze. My vf2 debian desktop from the march 2023 image doesn’t display the pink login after power up. I’ve tried it just with the SBC to the hd monitor. I’ve tried using 2 hdmi cables to one hd monitor. One for the SBC and the other for my fedora silverblue x86_64 session during VF2 power on. Same result with the same output as given below with last lines I see as “deferred probe pending”.
