Okay, then you have to adjust the source to mitigate the issue. Also log excerpts are often useless. My random guess is that uboot is some old outdated version depending on python2 which has been deprecated years ago.

I fork this repository and make some file config for ugoos sk 1 chip s928x-k https://github.com/armbian?view_as=public

Hi, yesterday i see a "armbian-update" message after login per ssh. I run this command and than my banana pi M1 won't boot. How can i repair it without formatting the SSD? Regards Christian

Ask where you got the source code from.

@StanleyLIM I see it should run a variant of OpenWrt, see https://www.friendlyelec.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=69&product_id=290 My NanoPi-R6C got delivered with that FriendlyWrt pre-installed on eMMC. I bought the R6C as alternative for RPi5, nice metal passive cooling and M.2 M-key as well. FriendlyWrt uses a bunch of partitions to store various objects related to the boot stage and although it would be nice for a router, I wanted generic Linux as base. But R6C is using RK3588S as SoC, yours RK3568B2. Based on experience with my ROCK3A (RK3568), you could first check if both NICs are available on PCI-E, 'sudo lspci' should show. If available, 'sudo ip link' should also show the 2 NICs as network ports. Then it is a matter of high-level networking, not really specific to Armbian.

To anyone this may help, removing hc4 related packages and replacing them with c4 packages did the job. Only to discover that, for whatever reason, I actually had an HC4 board and convince myself that it was a C4 ... Anyway, the reverse process also worked as expected and my board is now running 25.051.1 happily, except for the samsung SSD not recognized at boot, and requires to be hot plugged just after the linux kernel starts in order to be seen by the system, as it is described in other threads.

To be more precise - parameters that are provided to that driver. If driver would be the problem, both NICs would be down. You need to find / create correct settings (device tree), based on schematics. This forum (search) can provide plenty of resources and hints how to do this. Someone from community (with the device so testing can be done) has to sacrifice afternoon or more to get this in operation.

I'm brought the NanoPi-R5C to setup Internet-in-a-Box on for an Orphan school. I would like both the network port to work so that 1 part can be connected to the internet and the second can be connected to their local router. Base on the documentation, the 2 LAN port uses the same RTL8125BG. I assume driver shouldn't be the issue..

They have a repository on Mega and Baidu. https://wiki.sipeed.com/hardware/en/longan/h618/lpi3h/3_images.html

I have TV-BOX Ugoos SK1. how I can Install Armbian for it. My TV-Box using chip S928X-K this is device information: https://ugoos.com/ugoos-sk1-8-128-gb-amlogic-tvbox-s928x-k Best regards

As far as I know openvfd needs to be re-worked to support 6.12.y and up. EDIT: I stand corrected. I found a working patch at unifreq. It needs to be patched against the source-tree. 0001-drv-auxdisplay-Add-openvfd-driver.patch

With logs, we could see if this is NIC not recognized or network stack problem. Community supported target are often not having anyone behind https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Board-Support-Rules/

@KrzyPacu Can you look at your full dmesg output (no filter on tm16xx)? I guess there are some other error messages prior to there filtered output. I don't think that you have a different controller. Maybe rather the pinout: which pins of the SoC of your TV box are wired to the controller and how they are declared in the device tree. Was your display working properly with the OpenVFD driver and the hk1-x3.conf VFD configuration file you posted? If so, the controller is good and it's probably the pin numbers described in the device tree that needs to be adjusted. My hk1-x3.dtso was converted from the OpenVFD configuration file, but the device hasn't been tested yet to my knowledge. So it might need some corrections.

@junji. Can you explain me how you proceed to boot this OS image Armbian-unofficial_25.05.0-trunk_X96q-lpddr3-v1-3_bookworm_edge_6.12.11_xfce_desktop.img.xz ?

I have same hardware issue here. Did you fix this problem?

For a few weeks I've been using the latest official release from May 26, 2025, running just fine from my NVME drive. But then I turned it on and at the screen where you get the Amrbian grey/red logo in the middle of the screen and the spinning circle, it went no further. The spinning circle would either stop rotating or disappear after a minute or so. I can SSH into the device. But when I use remote desktop from a Windows PC, the full and functioning desktop is there. It's just not on my TV screen any more. I've done the usual HDMI cable testing and powering off the TV completely, but no change. The fact that the desktop is accessible remotely does indicate that it must be loading in some fashion. Took a log here: https://paste.next.armbian.com/qococumoga

Thank you for letting us know, much appreciated. Have you tried to reach out to Michael Hawkins, the maintainer?

Hello all Is anybody having success with spidev with orange pi zero 3 and Linux 6.12? I want to test my LCD panel's touch, but I need spidev working first

I did everything again, as you wrote and it still doesn't work. So it looks like my TVbox has a different LED controller?

Those use systemd-network and it is called 'minimal' so it might be that only 1 port is handled by default (the LAN only). Rest you need to figure out yourself. What do you want to do with the NanoPi-R5C ? I have replaced systemd-network with NetworkManager as is the default in Debian Bookworm once for a newly downloaded image (was for ROCK3A AFAIR). The Ubuntu based images use netplan.io, that is nice for Canonical, not for me. I do not want to waste my time on yet another configuring/scripting/layering. It made me just clone an existing Armbian/Debian/RPi Bookworm rootfs as I use NetworkManager for almost all Linux computers and is easy copying of .nmconnection files between platforms (x86, arm, etc).

You could try to install auditd and check what it says when the event appears. Maybe it will tell you which process is sending the event: $ sudo apt install auditd $ sudo auditctl -w /proc/sysrq-trigger -p w -k sysrq_watch The second command is creating a watch on sysrq-trigger for write events, called sysrq_watch. You can query check this watch with: $ sudo ausearch -k sysrq_watch See what you can find when you detect another trigger of the sysrq key.

Hi, Just received my Nanopi R5C. Flashed the Debian 12 (Bookworm) Minimal/IOT images with Armbian Linux v6.12 from here https://www.armbian.com/nanopi-r5c/. Everything works well except that I could not get the WAN port working. Anyone has any idea? BTW, the Nanopi R5C looks different from the image showed on https://www.armbian.com/nanopi-r5c/. Mine has only 2 x 2.5Gb ports instead of the 3 port. The image on the page looks like a NanoPi R5S... Just a side note. Cheers.
