OK thanks @bedna With your help I've made some progress. I followed one of your links to the wiki regarding a standalone server and modified the smb.conf file as below # # Sample configuration file for the Samba suite for Debian GNU/Linux. # # # This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the # smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed # here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options most of which # are not shown in this example # # Some options that are often worth tuning have been included as # commented-out examples in this file. # - When such options are commented with ";", the proposed setting # differs from the default Samba behaviour # - When commented with "#", the proposed setting is the default # behaviour of Samba but the option is considered important # enough to be mentioned here # # NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command # "testparm" to check that you have not made any basic syntactic # errors. #======================= Global Settings ======================= [global] map to guest = Bad User log file = /var/log/samba/%m log level = 1 server role = standalone server [guest] # This share allows anonymous (guest) access # without authentication path = /srv/samba/guest/ read only = no guest ok = yes guest only = yes ## Browsing/Identification ### # Change this to the workgroup/NT-domain name your Samba server will part of workgroup = WORKGROUP # server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu) #### Networking #### # The specific set of interfaces / networks to bind to # This can be either the interface name or an IP address/netmask; # interface names are normally preferred ; interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8 eth0 # Only bind to the named interfaces and/or networks; you must use the # 'interfaces' option above to use this. # It is recommended that you enable this feature if your Samba machine is # not protected by a firewall or is a firewall itself.

I can now see the share from windows but could not connect due to a windows security policy for guest users. I therefore ran sudo smbpasswd -a your_username to add the local user to samba. This allowed me to connect to the share using the local user account. However i have two issues:- 1) Whilst i can browse the share I cannot write to it from windows. 2) There is a second share named guest which has appeared. See (attachment) I can only think this is something to do with the global entry at the beginning of the smb.conf? Which entry should i remove from smb.conf to remove this share (everything in [guest] ?? ) as clearly guest only access is not working from windows. As regards writing to the share I have tried running chmod -R 777 /mnt/data/ this appears to finish without errors but I still cannot write to the share from windows. Could this be because the file system is exFat? If I try and convert the partition to Ext4 then I need to run gnome-disks as Sudo and afterwards I still cannot access the share on the pi with the local user permissions. I am therefore stuck. Any suggestions as to change the permissions to allow write access to the share please?

I tried to build a image from the current main branch (kernel: 6.18.20) and I found the problem is the same. I changed KERNELBRANCH to "tag:v6.18.18" from "branch:linux-6.18.y" and rebuild. It can boot to desktop as expected. It seems some change in the 6.18.19 kernel causes the problem

What happened? I used image https://github.com/armbian/community/releases/download/26.2.0-trunk.606/Armbian_community_26.2.0-trunk.606_Ayn-odin2_noble_current_6.18.19_gnome_desktop.img.xz and I found the device cannot boot into desktop. It stuck in the first boot wizard after message "Please use this account for your daily work from now on." How to reproduce? Download image from https://github.com/armbian/community/releases/download/26.2.0-trunk.606/Armbian_community_26.2.0-trunk.606_Ayn-odin2_noble_current_6.18.19_gnome_desktop.img.xz Flash it to TF card using Armbian Imager Insert the TF card to Odin2 device and power on Wait for it to boot to desktop Observation: It stuck in the first boot wizard after message "Please use this account for your daily work from now on."
