So when writing the u-boot to SD card, you need to follow a special process to "skip" over some bytes to prevent trashing the partition table. see https://www.cnx-software.com/2016/11/19/how-to-create-a-bootable-recovery-sd-card-for-amlogic-tv-boxes/ TLDR, something like: sudo umount /dev/sdX* sudo dd if=aml_sdc_burn.UBOOT of=/dev/sdX bs=1 count=442 sudo dd if=aml_sdc_burn.UBOOT of=/dev/sdX seek=1 skip=1 bs=512 sync

Have you tried `/boot/dtb/amlogic/meson-gxm-mini-m8s-pro.dtb` ? What is wifi chip? Is it LTM8830? If so this is QCA9377 clone, and this dtb should be fully working.

Any luck yet? I have a v4.1 board. None of the image is working. Anyone tried these ? https://github.com/velvet-os/imagebuilder/blob/main/systems/allwinner_h616/readme.md

Hi everyone, I’m working on a custom Armbian build for an RK3588-based board (cm3588-nas) and trying to completely disable the Rockchip crypto driver (rk_crypto2), since it's negatively impacting LUKS (AES-XTS) performance. Despite several attempts, the module continues to register algorithms in /proc/crypto after boot: driver : rk2-sm3 module : rk_crypto2 driver : rk2-sha512 module : rk_crypto2 driver : xts-aes-rk2 module : rk_crypto2 ... ------------------------------------------------------------ What I’ve Tried ------------------------------------------------------------ 1. Kernel Config Override - Added CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_ROCKCHIP=n and CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_ROCKCHIP2=n to: userpatches/linux-rockchip-rk3588-edge.config - Verified .config has it set to n after build. - Used CLEAN_LEVEL="make,debs,oldcache" in the build command. 2. Blacklisting & Deletion in customize-image.sh echo "blacklist rk_crypto" > /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-rk_crypto.conf rm -f /lib/modules/*/kernel/drivers/crypto/rockchip/rk_crypto.ko* 3. Post-Boot Verification - lsmod | grep rk_crypto → empty - modinfo rk_crypto → module not found - /proc/crypto still shows rk2-* drivers tied to rk_crypto2 4. Manual Source Removal - Commented out this line in drivers/crypto/rockchip/Makefile: # obj-$(CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_ROCKCHIP) += rk_crypto.o - Also removed or disabled its Kconfig entry. ------------------------------------------------------------ System Details ------------------------------------------------------------ Board : cm3588-nas (RK3588) Kernel : rockchip-rk3588 edge (Linux 6.8.x) Builder : Official Armbian compile.sh ------------------------------------------------------------ Goal ------------------------------------------------------------ I want to fully disable the Rockchip crypto engine (rk_crypto2): - It should not load, not build, and not register anything in /proc/crypto. - LUKS should fall back to software crypto (cryptd, aesni, or default fallback). ------------------------------------------------------------ Any help is appreciated. I’d love to hear from anyone who’s successfully disabled rk_crypto2 entirely or has ideas for where the registration is coming from even when the module appears removed. Thanks!
