The issue is that your u-boot can't read the emmc. The linux kernel can since when it was run from your sd card you can access the emmc. But after you have copied the install to emmc and then boot, the uboot is reporting it can't read the emmc. There are instruction in /boot/build-u-boot for building the various uboots. I would suggest you try building with a newer version of uboot. What is currently shipped (the u-boot-s905x-s912 was built from uboot 2020-07 sources) so trying with newer uboot 2025-xx might provide better support for your specific emmc.

@Werner https://paste.armbian.com/izobaqaguk here the link So do you think docker cannot run well on this device?

What CPU does your box have? This should be filed under the corresponding CPU archtecture sub forum.

the issue is as follows: 1. When using the Type-C interface to connect to an external monitor, the display works normally if the monitor is connected after the development board has started. 2. If the monitor is disconnected and then reconnected after approximately several hours (possibly more than 6 hours), the display fails to show any image. I used the `armbianmonitor -u` command, and it output the following URL. https://paste.armbian.com/foyecusoju If the Type-C interface is functioning normally, the latest output from `dmesg -w` would show the following: [ 1155.922647] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.15.auto: xHCI Host Controller [ 1155.922692] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.15.auto: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 7 [ 1155.922885] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.15.auto: hcc params 0x0220fe64 hci version 0x110 quirks 0x0002008002010010 [ 1155.922937] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.15.auto: irq 116, io mem 0xfc000000 [ 1155.923133] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.15.auto: xHCI Host Controller [ 1155.923152] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.15.auto: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 8 [ 1155.923173] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.15.auto: Host supports USB 3.0 SuperSpeed [ 1155.923455] usb usb7: New USB device found, idVendor=1d6b, idProduct=0002, bcdDevice= 6.01 [ 1155.923476] usb usb7: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=1 [ 1155.923491] usb usb7: Product: xHCI Host Controller [ 1155.923502] usb usb7: Manufacturer: Linux 6.1.115-vendor-rk35xx xhci-hcd [ 1155.923515] usb usb7: SerialNumber: xhci-hcd.15.auto [ 1155.924750] hub 7-0:1.0: USB hub found [ 1155.924811] hub 7-0:1.0: 1 port detected [ 1155.925434] usb usb8: We don't know the algorithms for LPM for this host, disabling LPM.

Hello everyone, I'm trying to get an ST7735S LCD display working with my Orange Pi Zero 2 (H616). This setup was working correctly with older Armbian kernels, but after a recent update, I can no longer get the SPI device to appear. I have already tried a couple of different configuration methods without success. System Information: Board: Orange Pi Zero 2 (H616) Display: ST7735S (SPI) Kernel Version: Linux orangepizero2 6.12.43-current-sunxi64 #2 SMP Wed Aug 20 16:30:58 UTC 2025 aarch64 GNU/Linux I have recently updated armbian-config by running the update from the script itself. Attempt 1: Using armbianEnv.txt My first attempt was to edit /boot/armbianEnv.txt and add the required overlays. Here is my configuration: verbosity=1 bootlogo=false console=both disp_mode=1920x1080p60 rootdev=UUID=aef396b8-ac79-477c-b797-466fc4d881a6 rootfstype=ext4 overlays=sun50ih616spidev1_0 sun50ih616spidev1_1 sun50ih616spispidev sun50ih616tft35_spi usbstoragequirks=0x2537:0x1066:u,0x2537:0x1068:u After rebooting with this configuration, the device nodes are not created. The output of ls /dev/spidev* is empty. Attempt 2: Using a custom user overlay Next, I tried creating a custom Device Tree Overlay. I created the file /boot/overlay-user/sp1-spidev.dts with the following content: /dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { compatible = "allwinner,sun50i-h616"; fragment@0 { target = <&spi1>; __overlay__ { status = "okay"; pinctrl-names = "default"; #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; spidev@0 { compatible = "spidev"; reg = <0>; spi-max-frequency = <50000000>; }; }; }; }; I then added sp1-spidev to the overlays line in armbianEnv.txt. This method seems to be partially working. After a reboot, I can see the SPI master controller: $ ls /sys/class/spi_master/ spi0 spi1 However, the spidev device is still missing. ls /dev/spidev* is still empty. Diagnostic Information Here is the output of dmesg filtered for "spi". It seems to refer to spi0, not spi1 which I am trying to configure, but I'm including it for completeness. $ dmesg | grep -i spi [ 2.821043] spi-nor spi0.0: supply vdd not found, using dummy regulator My Question I don't understand why the /dev/spidev* device is not being created, even when the spi1 master appears to be correctly enabled via the overlay. It seems like the spidev driver is not binding to the device. Since this worked on older kernels, has the method for enabling SPI devices changed? What is the correct procedure now? Is there something I'm missing in my overlay file or configuration? Thank you for your help

@laibsch thank you for reaching out. I apologize for the delay in responding. I want to inform you that I am actively seeking assistance from the community and am willing to contribute by developing code to address the issues I've observed on this board. However, despite my efforts to engage with the community, I have not received any responses and am not sufficiently experienced to thoroughly troubleshoot and resolve these problems on my own. Although I have some knowledge of programming languages, I am not well-versed in Linux. For example, this morning, I suggested a potential solution to the Bluetooth issue on the IRC channel but received no feedback. For the GPU, it appears that acceleration is now present, as the CPU is no longer at 100%. However, I am unable to set the resolution to 4K without encountering screen artifacts, and I can only achieve Full HD resolution.

Kernel packages comes from the same (main) repository. This won't cause you problems, if you upgrade from bookworm to trixie, but we can't guarantee for packages that comes from Debian. You might try this way: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Armbian-Config/System/#stable-distro-upgrade Note that you might need to download updated Armbian key: wget -qO - https://apt.armbian.com/armbian.key | gpg --dearmor | \ sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/armbian.gpg > /dev/null cat << EOF | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/armbian-config.sources > /dev/null Types: deb URIs: https://github.armbian.com/configng Suites: stable Components: main Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/armbian.gpg EOF

Hard to tell without any logs whatsoever In general it works on x86 since a few month ago I used it to move the OS from an old NUC-like pc from sd to built-in emmc which was flawless (besides I had to get rid of Ventoy since it messes up Armbian boot).

has any progress been made toward fixing this

Hi @jock, Thanks for suggestion, led me to dig down and found your update on R29 GPIO. Since multitool hdmi was working, I used it's bash to mount emmc and add overlays=led-config7 to armbianEnv.txt. It worked!!!! Thanks a lot for all your contribution!

I don't know and I won't spend time investigating. We cannot provide support for 3rd party images/software. Moved to off-topic since OP is not using Armbian.

You just have to create the nginx folder in /var/log with owner www-data (it is not created automatically): mkdir /var/log/nginx chown -R www-data:www-data /var/log/nginx systemctl restart nginx

This will cause update-grub to add the following a devicetree line to all menu entries. This example is based on Debian Trixie's grub-efi. This example will expect dtb directories (or links) to be in the /boot directory, using the convention that I've seen Armbian use. Here is an example of a /boot directory listing for (pure) Debian Trixie with two kernels: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 336036 Aug 27 04:10 config-6.12.43+deb13-arm64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 343394 Sep 6 12:48 config-6.16.3+deb13-arm64 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 42 Sep 20 16:17 dtb -> ../usr/lib/linux-image-6.16.3+deb13-arm64/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 43 Sep 20 16:17 dtb-6.12.43+deb13-arm64 -> ../usr/lib/linux-image-6.12.43+deb13-arm64/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 42 Sep 20 16:18 dtb-6.16.3+deb13-arm64 -> ../usr/lib/linux-image-6.16.3+deb13-arm64/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Sep 20 15:13 efi drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Sep 20 16:26 grub lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Sep 15 21:30 initrd.img -> initrd.img-6.16.3+deb13-arm64 -rw------- 1 root root 42521317 Sep 20 16:26 initrd.img-6.12.43+deb13-arm64 -rw------- 1 root root 43760872 Sep 20 16:25 initrd.img-6.16.3+deb13-arm64 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 Sep 15 20:38 initrd.img.old -> initrd.img-6.12.43+deb13-arm64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 83 Aug 27 04:10 System.map-6.12.43+deb13-arm64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 92 Sep 6 12:48 System.map-6.16.3+deb13-arm64 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Sep 15 21:30 vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-6.16.3+deb13-arm64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 37449664 Aug 27 04:10 vmlinuz-6.12.43+deb13-arm64 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 41507328 Sep 6 12:48 vmlinuz-6.16.3+deb13-arm64 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Sep 15 20:38 vmlinuz.old -> vmlinuz-6.12.43+deb13-arm64 Note: The relative pathways of the dtb links above assume that the /boot directory is part of the main OS partition, not on its own boot partition. Otherwise you'd need to copy those directories to /boot/ as Armbian does. For The Current Partition's OS Entries (each devicetree will be specific to the respective kernel) 1. Open the file with a text/source editor (using sudo): /etc/grub.d/10_linux 2. Find every line that looks something like this (currently on my system, there is only one, and it's line 189) linux ${rel_dirname}/${basename} root=${linux_root_device_thisversion} ro ${args} 3. Just above it, add your own system's version of this line: devicetree ${rel_dirname}/dtb-${version}/[VENDOR SUB-DIRECTORY]/[SBC PRODUCT].dtb Specific Example: OrangePI-5-Plus devicetree ${rel_dirname}/dtb-${version}/rockchip/rk3588-orangepi-5-plus.dtb Specific Example from the resulting grub.cfg, of the current trixie-backport kernel, again on the OrangePI-5-Plus: devicetree /boot/dtb-6.16.3+deb13-arm64/rockchip/rk3588-orangepi-5-plus.dtb For Other Partitions' OS Entries, via os-prober (I'm unfamiliar with the variables in this so each devicetree will be the same generic path, regardless of kernel) 1. Open the file with a text/source editor (using sudo): /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober 2. Find every line that looks something like this (currently on my system, there are two, lines 277 and 297) linux ${LKERNEL} ${LPARAMS} 3. Just above it, add your own system's version of this line: devicetree /boot/dtb/[VENDOR SUB-DIRECTORY]/[SBC PRODUCT].dtb Specific Example: OrangePI-5-Plus devicetree /boot/dtb/rockchip/rk3588-orangepi-5-plus.dtb Then run update-grub, and take a look at the resulting /boot/grub/grub.cfg

nice work @Eks Ma thanks for sharing!

thank you so much for the link, after trying some of the older tinkerboard .deb archives from there I was able to install one that didn't have the two missing deps eventually and, lo and behold, I could even feel the accelerated desktop from the login window, even before confirming it with the much snappier webgl aquarium test, that jumped from about one fps to almost 60 there are still some kinks, like h264ify being installed but not doing squat (youtube is still av1 and hangs the whole system), but I'll take what I got for now as for the SOC being 2017....I'm fully aware that like everything Asus makes, it becomes e-waste after 2 years, I could probably try to flip this board online for $1 and no one would buy it, but I still believe it should be enough for me to stream video from my NAS on my secondary TV using 5-15W, kind of like those crappy Android sticks that plug into HDMI and an extra USB port I have yet to decide if my next SBC should be a rk3588 board or just bite the bullet and get some N100 SBC that's probably cheaper (I live in Europe, Orange Pi 5 probably goes for more than a used PS5 with all the taxes), can run anything and won't be forever stuck on whatever this year's trending distro is

Hi ! @jpm how exactly did you solve 2) Fixed cedar_ve compilation issues / kernel name ? I'm gettinf the same "modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'cedar_ve': Exec format error" T.

thanks for all the work you put in to this application. i've done this on most all of my systems and it was a bit tedious and fiddley. with just a few tweeks it ran through with no errors on my hc4 with bookworm. one question, why remove bash-completion and command-not-found packages?

A crash in the Linux kernel's module loader is not really ZFS's fault, though, right? There's nothing about `resolve_symbol` that's part of ZFS.

Would you mind sending this as pull request? https://github.com/armbian/build/pulls

You need to install rkdeveloptool on your PC. Connect the board to your PC using a USB-C to USB-A cable. Before powering the board, press and hold the mask button, then plug in the power cable. Once this is done, your PC should detect the device, and you can verify it with: rkdeveloptool ld You can follow this guide: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/#rockchip
