That is worrying, I wonder if there could potentially be issues with the RAM, which could either be faulty or clocked higher than a level it is stable at. Reffering back to the fex you provide earlier it suggest a dram value of 384, so you may have to the def_config file to include the line CONFIG_DRAM_CLK=384. Is the card just class 10 rated or is it an A1 SD card? https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/ Strange it should auto login on first boot. What it should be request is to set a new root password then confirming that password. Could you please provide a screen shot of the login screen you are greeted with. Alternatively it may be possible to set the root password external to get around this issue. Please see: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Autoconfig/ Strange never encoutered that before, have you tried pulling the latest version of armbian build to see if it fixes it? Unfortunately I have not had a lot of luck in trying to get WSL2 to work so I have stuck with virtual box. Worth a shot with the pre-built images, but I dont believe the Cubieboard is in a much better state. best of luck Ryzer

5B+ on vendor (6.1.115) has all I/O related stuff fixed (since 6.1.84) as far as my testing (the one reported in the https://www.armbian.com/rock-5b-plus/ description). Looking into the broken gnome image though and will update here!

Yes, that is the main idea, but sometimes things slipped trough. Images were tested (we aim to have two people on one platinum target to be able to provide better service, but perfection is still not possible), but here we ran into weird problem that CI compilation silently broke on u-boot recompilation, while local build works. We have a problem with build framework / compiler internals, unrelated to this specific hardware and problem only manifest on some u-boot variants. Right now, I don't have a clear picture, but we are working on it. This was introduced while moving framework to Noble, which is mandatory for some targets and there are some Python libraries troubles ... which are sometimes used for u-boot / ATF compile. Its a mess. Software maintenance within such extreme complexity is job that is never done. Generally speaking.

Are platinum supported boards not tested on actual hardware before posting images? FYI we are on of radxas big partners that paid for the platinum membership so there is better support for this board, not sure if all the USB/wifi related driver issues were fixed?

hi , can i use these image to boot armbian to my s805X Amlogic soc.
