I'm booting it from Armbian_24.11.1_Rock-5c_bookworm_vendor_6.1.75_minimal.img.xz image from a SD card. When launching `armbian-install`, there's only one option: (5) - Install to SD card I would like to install the bootloader to the SPI flash module but the option is not present. Furthermore it seems that my SPI module isn't detected either when running ls /dev/mtd* -> no mtdblock I decided to move on and I flashed https://dl.radxa.com/rock5/5c/images/loader/spi/rock-5c-spi-image-20240528.img to my 5C lite SPI flash module. However, there's no display and both LEDs are lighted up (green and blue) without blinking. I suggest it didn't work well. Can someone confirm? BR

sorry my bad!! my device is H96 max v11 RK3318 . The only time i was able to get access to the system was via ssh but now the device keep getting in suspension HDMI has no image and cant connect again via ssh because the box is offline (i'm noob sorry ) Broadcast message from gdm @rk3318 -box on tty1 (Fri 2025-01-10 16:18:06 UTC): │ │ │ The system will suspend now! │ │ <Select> <Exit> │ │ │ Broadcast message from gdm @rk3318 -box on tty1 (Fri 2025-01-10 16:18:06 UTC):──────────────────────────┘ The system will suspend now! client_loop: send disconnect: Connection reset

@A t sorry but I have no idea, no logs, no board info and photos couldn't help understand what the problem may be

i know this is old but did anyone unzip the compressed image file?

I have a Clearfog Base but not a Pro - but I utilized the instructions here and have been running Armbian off a SATA m.2 stick for years now without issue. When I attach to the USB console and boot I begin to get console output immediately, first from the firmware, then from uBoot, and finally from the kernel and into userland. Can you share the end of the output that you see? Does it go as far as "Starting Kernel" (or similar, I forget exactly what it says). My first suspicion is that the img (not an ISO per se but I know what you mean) wasn't written to the block device in the manner the board is expecting and so the handoff to the boot loader isn't happening. Do you have a SATA m.2 to USB adapter that you could use to write the image to the media from another system? I'm pretty sure when I set mine up that's what I did rather than writing the image to the SATA drive from within the Clearfog itself (that was booted off SD).
