Yes, I am aware of this limitation.

Hey @Sergey Lepeshkin, i got the cable after 1-2 months now, i tried adb and all of them didn't regonize, only the middle port of the side, but i can't connect to it, it also beeps like theres a connection conflict, any solution? (There is no root on the board i tried using root detector and magisk), any help appreciated

@eselarm Thank you very much for the details. I am currently working with the NanoPi R6S minimal image, with kernel 6.1 based on your feedback. I started out with the rolling release version, but that cannot run Jellyfin (because it is Forky). So I going back to the Trixie version and test this now. I will report back here whether the Jellyfin server works well with the transcoding of 4K movies (like the vendor FriendlyElec distribution does) and whether 4K movie playing can be smooth on it.

I'm looking for an ARM board to self-host some stuff at home. My requirements is that the hardware is light enough that it doesn't requirement mechanical cooling, and can run yunohost [1] So my question at this stage is: how do I know about determining whether any given board requires its own cooling? Complete newbie here, I just want something small and silent. [1] https://doc.yunohost.org/en/admin/get_started/install_on/arm_board/

Note that if you enable USB3, it disables PCIe. That's a hardware limitation of the a5e, I'm told...

Board that would fit though, the H4 PLUS from hardkernel, limited to 4 sata instead of 5. 120x120, but only 2 screws would fit I believe...

Update, this is also working .... extraargs=reboot=watchdog UPDATE: It stopped working after 3 successful reboots...

Ok update.. I used a USB Ethernet to update and now the local phy is showing as end0 and it works. I'm kind of doubting my story now. I know the initial login could not connect to the Ethernet. After I installed on the local emmc and upgraded via apt upgrade things work now. I think this is a non-issue.

The thing is that I need it on different boards .... Tried Armbian Trixie and Ubuntu based, same issue thus it might be uoot and/or kernel related. Thanks for your help though.

Some of the Board manufacturers SDK's broke due to a deleted repository; looks like someone's having a rough end to the year.

There is at least no primary GPT, all zeros from 0x200-0x20000 Fixed with: # gdisk Armbian_community_26.2.0-trunk.130_Radxa-cubie-a5e_trixie_edge_6.18.2_minimal.img GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 1.0.10 Caution: invalid main GPT header, but valid backup; regenerating main header from backup!

About to write GPT data. THIS WILL OVERWRITE EXISTING PARTITIONS!! Do you want to proceed? (Y/N): y OK; writing new GUID partition table (GPT) to Armbian_community_26.2.0-trunk.130_Radxa-cubie-a5e_trixie_edge_6.18.2_minimal.img. Warning: The kernel is still using the old partition table. The new table will be used at the next reboot or after you run partprobe(8) or kpartx(8) The operation has completed successfully.

OK, I have the following in my test NanoPi-NEO (using 6.18 kernel): U-Boot SPL 2024.01-armbian-2024.01-S866c-P7738-Ha5c2-V2b78-Bb703-R448a (Mar 09 2025 - 03:54:42 +0000) Same base, but it is older and anyway different hardware, although H3 SoC. I have no more ideas why you need that extra kernel cmdline statement. I think I have seen it as well for another board/SoC, but does not ring a bell.

Can confirm that version trunk 130 is not bootable. Tried with balenaEtcher and Win32DiskImager. Looks like trunk 130 is a GPT image unlike the older ones.

Didn't warn ffmpeg from a guts feel years ago that they will issue a takedown if no action is taken? So I'm not surprised. Kind of.

I don't have this hardware. However the last merged PR messing with code for this board/SoC was tested by Igor and he stated it boots just fine.

Interesting question. The dxf says the part in question is labeled ED1 besides CP18 and CP14. I found both CP18 and 14 in the schematics but ED1 not. Either mislabeled or I didn't catch it. https://x.na4.eu/KOTu3/quzevoji80.jpg OrangePi-Schematic of ZERO3.pdf

Here is the output: U-Boot SPL 2024.01_armbian-2024.01-S866c-P6b16-Ha5c2-V7d7d-Bbf55-R448a (Dec 22 2025 - 03:39:51 +0000) Note that prior to this I tried to update uboot through armbian-install, it did not change anything to my reboot issue.

But... every other image I've ever created with Balena has been fine? Dozens of armbian images including trunk 100... Trunk 130 image is working fine for you on the a5e?

Balenaetcher is known to cause trouble. Use USBimager or Armbian imager https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/

I was working with OpenHD when it was taken down by GitHub. There's something we should be concerned about here in the rockchip section of armbian?

I believe I'm having a similar issue. I'm running the Renegade Rockchip Libre Computer ROC-RK3328-CC-V1.3-8 and I've tried 6.12.32-current-rockchip64 as Debian IOT Minimal and as the Ubuntu Server versions from https://www.armbian.com/renegade/. Unfortunately the onboard ethernet phy is not working but I can use a USB ethernet just fine. I'm not super sure where to start troubleshooting other than a binary search for the version that broke things. If more info is needed from my setup I'm happy to post, let me know.

I do not see something clearly wrong, but likely is is a newer U-Boot, maybe something wrong there; version in SD-card you can show with: dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 count=32k status=none | strings | grep "U-Boot SPL"

Ooops, you are right I meant /boot/armbianEnv.txt, I edited the topic to correct. The output of armbianmonitor -u can be found here: https://paste.armbian.com/foyunagisu What should I look for?

I think it must be /boot/armbianEnv.txt Besides that, I never had this issue with my 5 NanoPi-NEO boards, originally Armbian Buster, always in-place upgraded. Also 1 now tested with kernel 6.18, now issues. So I think you maybe need to look at what U-Boot you use, what kernel is it and logs ( all via armbianmonitor -u )
