I am getting closer to resolving this issue ... I took the latest image Armbian_community_26.2.0-trunk.732_Bananapim2ultra_noble_current_6.18.22_xfce_desktop.img.xz, flashed it, and it hung on Begin: Running /scripts/local-premount ... Scanning for Btrfs filesystems Removed microsd and replaced file sun8i-r40-bananapi-m2-ultra.dtb in /boot-dtb folder with file supplied with linux-image-6.1.24-sunxi kernel. And do you know what ? It successfully booted up after this change!

@Sergioclr I remember someone was able to get Ethernet working by changing 16 to 0. There's two locations ethernet-phy@16 and reg = <16>; +&mdio1 { + rmii_phy: ethernet-phy@0 { + compatible = "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22"; + reg = <0>; + }; +};

here is the module driver files only for the 6.18.23-current-rockchip kernel. It works for the rk3228a cpu, but it might work for other CPUs that can run the rk32xx-box as well... Download files from https://github.com/viny182/ssv6x5x_compiled_for_6.18.23-current-rockchip then: # 1.

This likely means the I2S overlay doesn’t exist yet. Someone would need to implement it and add it upstream (or just here to Armbian build framework). You can try enabling it manually via the Device Tree editor: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Armbian-Config/System/#device-tree-editor No guarantees it will work — hardware descriptions are often incomplete or inaccurate, and that’s outside our control.
