Hardware: Orange PI 5 Plus (rk3588) Operating System: Debian Trixie (pure, except EFI boot and Armbian edge kernel) EFI Source: https://github.com/edk2-porting/edk2-rk3588 The boot messages, after a few starts (spaced apart) of the low-memory-monitor.service, say there's a failure to start it. After booting is complete, here's a screenshot of the output of: systemctl status low-memory-monitor.service This error didn't show up until I installed a number of packages. I tracked down the offending package from the Trixie repository: Package: xfsprogs Version: 6.13.0-2+b1 Size: 4774 kB Once this package was removed, the error vanished, and a repeat of the above Status command reported low-memory-monitor-service as active and okay. I also found that, while the error occurred with the Armbian edge 6.16.4 kernel, it did NOT occur with the Debian 6.16.3 kernel. Kernel With The Error (kernel source: Armbian) --------------------- Package: linux-image-edge-rockchip64 (Armbian Linux edge kernel image 6.16.4-edge-rockchip64) Version: 25.8.1 Size: 282 MB Kernel Without The Error (kernel source: trixie-backports) ------------------------ Package: linux-image-6.16.3+deb13-arm64-unsigned (Linux 6.16 for 64-bit ARMv8 machines) Version: 6.16.3-1~bpo13+1 Size: 210 MB I also briefly tried regressing the Armbian edge kernel from 25.8.1 (6.16.4) to the previously available version of 25.5.2, which was 6.16.0-rc3 (I think). The error occurred with that kernel as well.

@SuperKali I have the original NanoPC-T6 - purchased around 2 years ago. While it does negotiate HS400 mode, it's not stable - medium or heavy I/O activity like performing an apt upgrade or even booting will cause I/O errors to be logged by the kernel. I've just tried switching to 6.16.4-edge-rockchip64 via armbian-config. It took a few attempts to get it booted - it hung several times at "begin: running /scripts/init-bottom ... done". On the successful boot, I could see quite a few I/O errors during boot. Here's the kernel logs showing HS400 mode was negotiated along with the I/O errors: root@nanopct6:~# dmesg | grep mmc [ 1.776595] mmc0: SDHCI controller on fe2e0000.mmc [fe2e0000.mmc] using ADMA [ 1.875696] mmc0: new HS400 Enhanced strobe MMC card at address 0001 [ 1.876758] mmcblk0: mmc0:0001 A3A444 230 GiB [ 1.880737] mmcblk0: p1 [ 1.881457] mmcblk0boot0: mmc0:0001 A3A444 4.00 MiB [ 1.883682] mmcblk0boot1: mmc0:0001 A3A444 4.00 MiB [ 1.885887] mmcblk0rpmb: mmc0:0001 A3A444 4.00 MiB, chardev (243:0) [ 2.191107] dwmmc_rockchip fe2c0000.mmc: IDMAC supports 32-bit address mode.

When running in HS200 mode using the DTB provided by @usual user, I can't trigger any I/O errors - no matter how hard I push it via fio. I then tried switching to the vendor kernel ("linux-image-vendor-rk35xx=25.8.1 v6.1.115"). That did result in a bunch of I/O errors being logged (including on the apt output), and when rebooting in to the new kernel there was no output whatsoever (I assume it got corrupted and couldn't boot). So instead, I booted back off the SD card and switched that to the same vendor kernel - which did work. And in better news, I was able to mount the MMC partition from there and run the same fio test without issue. fio --filename=/mnt/mmc/root/fio.bin --size=1GB --direct=1 --rw=randrw --bs=64k --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=1 --runtime=120 --numjobs=1 --time_based --group_reporting --name=rw --eta-newline=1 rw: (g=0): rw=randrw, bs=(R) 64.0KiB-64.0KiB, (W) 64.0KiB-64.0KiB, (T) 64.0KiB-64.0KiB, ioengine=libaio, iodepth=1 fio-3.36 Starting 1 process Jobs: 1 (f=1): [m(1)][2.5%][r=40.8MiB/s,w=42.6MiB/s][r=653,w=682 IOPS][eta 01m:57s] Jobs: 1 (f=1): [m(1)][4.2%][r=43.1MiB/s,w=42.8MiB/s][r=690,w=685 IOPS][eta 01m:55s] <snip - it continues like this> The kernel log output is slightly different on this vendor kernel.

I tried to apply a little bit of pressure around the M.2 slot and the board just fell out! Now I need to find where I put my UART adapter...

@JohnTheCoolingFan what image are you using? I can reproduce the issue consistently with Armbian_25.8.1_Bigtreetech-cb1_bookworm_current_6.12.35_minimal.img . This is the Minimal / IOT image one can grab from https://www.armbian.com/bigtreetech-cb1/ . Interestingly enough, the Minimal / IOT image does not use NetworkManager, it's configured with systemd-networkd backend (or "renderer" as they call it) for netplan. Perhaps this is the key difference: I saw a comment on a topic below stating that MainsailOS has added CB1 Trixie image which is forced to NetworkManager and it's claimed to be stable.

Hi, welcome everyone. I’m using an H50 TV box that I was about to throw away because I thought I had completely bricked it. I disassembled it and found the pins to activate maskrom mode. I think this could be useful for everyone. I then installed the current image, and everything seems to work except for the HDMI output (blank screen). Do you have any suggestions? Thanks. Some data and photo below. In case you want to install please note that also multitool fails to activate the HDMI, so you will need SSH to config.

Anyone trying to compile mpv 0.3.9, is it possible to do it with Linux 6.15? With the libraries in Debian Trixie? (considering mpv 0.3.9 is from sept 2024, and Trixie came with mpv-0.4.0) https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/releases

thanks for getting in touch, looks like you're the first one with these 2gb boxes I think the memory trainer for 4gb and 2gb are the same, do stress and performance tests, if crash occurs you really need a new memory trainer for 2gb, you can find an example of memory trainer on this @mvpwar logs do not use third party images, not even mine, always get the official ones This is really an unknown, I bought 4 boxes of this model in 2022, since then there have been changes in the manufacturer's list of materials, the wifi driver is not configured for a reason, the reason is that the wifi has changed several times, you can install the 2022 driver or you can look for users @dfahren who have a different chip here, or even detect a new chip unknown to everyone sudo rmmod brcmfmac_wcc brcmfmac brcmutil modprobe brcmfmac About the TTL debug: (link) windows debug (link) (link) search by image with Ai tool on aliexpress this topic have images from sd-card holder For this question we need to ask @Jean-Francois Lessard he was in contact with this drivers for a while.

Is your monitor a standard 1080p resolution or something else? If you try a server build that doesn't load a graphical interface does it work? Have you tried something more standard like gnome instead of cinnamon?

Not an Armbian image. If you want to use this one, try to get support from where you got the image from.

That's already a topic (with a solution): https://forum.armbian.com/topic/55129-trixie-apt-warning-policy-will-reject-signature-within-a-year/

@werner, thanks for the information and the clarification on my concern in the documentation. This sounds like an interesting project, I do believe I'll give it a try. Again, thank you for the encouragement and the pointers.

Hi, I have the same TV Box and would like to install Armbian Linux. Could someone tell me which version to install and how?

I have a TV box with 1.5 GB lpddr3 that has been running Manjaro Arm without any problems for a long time. I used this TV box to add lpddr3 support to the dram driver many years ago. You can get the latest patch for 6GBIT lpddr3 support here: https://github.com/iuncuim/manjaro-h616/blob/main/uboot-t98-h2b-lp3/0007-shrink-ram.patch

From the Circuit Schematic it looks like the Radxa Rock 5B+ RK3588 GPIO0-C0 is the fan I/O, GPIO pin 24, if thats correct. I will verify I can access this on the Armbian distro.

Hello, I have two Orange Pi Zero 2 for two years, I didn't know what to do with it. Yesterday I have installed Armbian_25.5.1_Orangepizero2_noble_current_6.12.23. The serial was a bit buggy during installation (display + key press), I have used option -L with screen: screen -L /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 Thank you for your great work !

Orange pi 5 wifi now supports injection mode using nexmon. Kali distro available from setup menu.

where exactly does this error show up? while downloading with your browser? while writing to the sdcard? while booting? Please elaborate. debug boot issues: https://debug.armbian.de

Hi @loeriver, Yes, it depends a bit on what brand/type and how you connect the USB to serial converter. The ones i use to monitor the serial console on all my SBCs have these spurious events as well, even when I do not connect the +5Vdc on the serial/UART end. For me they are sometimes preventing a full board shutdown as they seem to leach power to the SBC (not sure how this is happening electrically, perhaps some pull-ups allowing current to flow from RX into the Vcc of the board?). You could try to remove the dongle from the system to see if that has any effect to rule this out completely. Groetjes,
