It is not working with this patch because offcially AIC8800 is not supported in kernel > 7.0-rc6 plus in my image Wifi was initially disabled With new image it is better: I made a small fix to make it running with some commands as root: ``` # unzip AIC_FIX.zip # mkdir -p /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/aic8800 # cp aic_btusb.ko aic_load_fw.ko aic8800_fdrv.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/aic8800/ # depmod -a # cat /etc/modules-load.d/aic8800.conf aic_load_fw aic8800_fdrv aic_btusb # cp -r aic8800_fw /lib/firmware/ # cp -pr aic8800_fw/USB/aic8800D80/ /lib/firmware/ # modprobe aic_load_fw # modprobe aic8800_fdrv # modprobe aic_btusb # lsmod |grep -i aic aic_btusb 57344 0 aic8800_fdrv 626688 0 cfg80211 1200128 1 aic8800_fdrv aic_load_fw 86016 1 aic8800_fdrv ``` Please also remember as it is experimental and all you do it is on your own risk HDMI is not working and we need some code first, I guess for this part: CONFIG_PHY_ROCKCHIP_INNO_HDMI_QP

Ok, maybe I am not able to boot because this image is not for the stock PocketCHIP but for one which requires a custom breakout board: https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/7647 Maybe I could have found that out sooner if there was a device page for this custom PocketCHIP in the community supported devices page at ttps://www.armbian.com/community/. Who/how is supposed to create it? The board maintainer? How is one supposed to do that? There is no mention in the Board Maintainers Procedures and Guidelines. I haven't anything on the armbian github repositories about the boards information on this page. It would be important to have the device page, especially when the image was created for custom developed PCBs. Only after some digging and finding the PR where the device was added, I was able to figure out why I may not be able to boot the pocketchip-sd armbian image.

@Sergioclr the H313, H616, H618, and IK316 are essentially the same SoC family. To successfully boot an image, you must match the correct AXP chip (the Power Management IC) and the specific DRAM version used on your board. Essentially, any thread discussing the H616/H618 (excluding older H3/H5/H6 chips) will contain relevant information for these SoCs. PMIC Information: http://linux-sunxi.org/AXP_PMICs DRAM Types: 3: DDR3 4: DDR4 7: LPDDR3 8: LPDDR4 You can try flashing various boot images until one successfully initializes your hardware. (If your box is secure-boot enabled, you will need to add the secure-boot modifications posted above.) https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/releases/tag/20250306 Alternatively, for a more precise approach: Extract your Device Tree (DTS). Identify the specific AXP chip located on your board. Connect a USB-to-UART TTL device to the RX, TX, and GND pins on your board to monitor the boot sequence. https://forum.armbian.com/topic/29794-how-to-install-armbian-in-h618/#findComment-232411 https://forum.armbian.com/topic/29794-how-to-install-armbian-in-h618/page/4/#findComment-187672 https://forum.armbian.com/topic/29794-how-to-install-armbian-in-h618/page/23/#findComment-218660 https://linux-sunxi.org/UART Decompile your Device Tree Blob (DTB😞 dtc -I dtb -O dts -o source.dts source.dtb For a visual reference of a board using these specific chips, check out this hardware breakdown. http://nskhuman.ru/allwinner/krugh618.php?np=3

On a first analysis, I noticed that the git already has a very similar option that I need (H313): ~/build/patch/u-boot/u-boot-sunxi/board_x96q$ arm64-sun50i-h313-add-x96q-lpddr3-defconfig.patch sunsi-add-h616-internal-eth-phy-support.patch so I am stuck on how to proceed because the example has H616 parameters. Help will be appreciated.
