Thank you. Docker is working.

This whole image and config / install script are both very old, unsupported. It has been cca. 5 years since anyone touched code in old armbian-config. We developed new tool, which is fundamentally different and in much better shape. Documentation for old tool never existed. This config tool developed from my personal scripts for installing this and that. And as it was not properly designed, we decided to drop it at some point and develop a proper tool from scratch. You can try upgrading this way: https://github.com/armbian/configng?tab=readme-ov-file#compatible-distributions but no warranty or support in case of troubles. I would tell you to go with a fresh system, but as this image was not made by us, you need to ask vendor to do that for you. Everything that goes outside "Standard support" is usually unknown to the team and also for most of this community. This is custom hardware world, you are running custom Armbian build (probably made by hw vendor). Armbian developers team is super small and it is not realistic to expect support even for limited selection of (custom) hardware that we provide official Armbian builds for. If you just need git tool: sudo apt install git

I could not get SD boot to work until I flashed the bootloader back using rkdeveloptool. On most boards ive had, this is the case though

Radxa is probably using Allwinner bsp kernel while Armbian is using mainline. Latter barely has any support for the A523/T527 SoC pushed to already. It will take a few years to have it matured decently. You can try to incorporate vendor kernel. Start here:https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/config/sources/families/sun55iw3.conf and https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/config/boards/radxa-cubie-a5e.csc

What version of Armbian did you install (complete file name)? What do you mean by "the screen stopped working"? Did it once work and then stop? And by screen do you mean HDMI?

I tried with the orangepi bookworm server image , and the module installed fine with the kernel.org source code and linux-headers deb package they included in /opt folder

A while ago I bought a TV box that claims to be a TX9 but, by the specifications, it resembles a tx3 mini, I exchanged the standard android for an armbian and the screen stopped working, how can I discover the processor pins for the screen or some script ready?

I do not know if it is etiquette or not, but I will document what I have tried. This should be a time saver for others whether I can find the the solution or if I do not (so you do not have to do the things I have already tried). Maybe it is also funny for the advanced users to read what the noob tried =D o I started with the overlays as suggested by Igor. I installed WSL and mounted the IMG for the latest release and compared the files to the working 20.02. the dtb files were very very different but the overlays were the same. As a punt I replaced the new DTB with the 20.02 and tried to install. It failed a lot more than just the USBs... 😃 Then Pilinha and Werner (thanks guys) informed me that I could ssh log into a box before setting up a root password. I proceeded to install from the latest original image, log on, and use armbian-config to: activate the overlays (no dice) install headers (no dice) change kernels (no dice) install headers again (no dice) I then installed 21.02 and tried armbian-config again and this time there were a LOT more options. I tried: enable USBs hardware (no dice) enable all the things in the hardware option (no dice) change the DTB (no dice) install headers (no dice) That is all the time I have today, If I can think of something else I will report here. Feel free to pitch ideas.

I still get the format error with the compile.sh generated kernel source , along with this dmesg error: modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'module': Exec format error .gnu.linkonce.this_module section size must match the kernel's built struct module size at run time

@svyatoslav https://forum.armbian.com/topic/29794-how-to-install-armbian-in-h618/page/20/#findComment-217879

You need a PC... it would probably take days to compile a build on a SBC.

может быть проблема в том, что я запускаю сборку на orange3.? there is no other option, only orange pi3 with armbian installed.

@979101h I have the original X98H. I'll test the image again on my box. Edit: Just tested the server image on my box. I have no issues with Ethernet. I have all the same messages but your missing. end0:Link is up - 100Mbps/Full - flow control rx/tx Someone with a x96q had issues with ethernet. He got it working using sicxnull version.

@svyatoslav are you using my latest build? git clone https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build.git --branch v20250306

Thanks for the reply @steeman, How can I see the documentation of the version I'm using? I'd prefer to keep using it before attempting to install a fresh armbian version.

The documentation is for the current version of armbian-config. You are using an older version. There was a rewrite of armbian-config between what you have and the current functionality.

Hello, I'm using Armbian (22.08.0) for risc-v on a Mango-pi. I read in the documentation it is possible to install git with the command of this post-title, but instead, it opens the config menu (see screenshot). I've looked at the option to install git inside this menu (inside the software menu I saw other options except git), but have not found it. How can I do this? Any pointers are appreciated. Thanks.

I'm having a problem installing a driver. Once compiled correctly, the system gives me an error. Note that I performed the same procedure with : RaspiOS on an arm64 board (RPi4B) with the same kernel version, and it worked. Debian 12 on a PC, and it worked. Armbian on an arm64 board (RPi4B) with the same kernel version, and it worked. Armbian on an armhf board (nanopineocore) with the same kernel version, and it worked.
