Hello, i'm trying to make Arch work on my H3, it boots to uboot, loads fine and says RAM size and reads /boot/boot.scr, but when it tries to ext4load something it gives a error of ` ** fs_devread read error - block` and ` ** No partition table - mmc 0`, everything after `321 bytes read in 24 ms (33.2 KiB/s)` loads by arrays of pixels, i never seen these before on Armbian, H3Droid or any other img file.

I see that this configuration is a kernel build feature, not an armbian-developed function: https://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/INITRAMFS_SOURCE.html https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/479415/how-does-linux-know-where-the-rootfs-is So, you can post your question in many more linux discussion places. I hope you get the answer (and share here). Have you ever got this INITRAMFS_SOURCE configuration work, outside of Armbian... for example building the kernel from source by itself?

Thanks @robertoj as a matter of fact this is my own custom initial ramdisk. I've been running it as a standalone file for some time and it works great but now I want to integrate it inside the kernel itself. for this I need to set CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE during the make process.

Also, this TVBOX contains the less known S9012P wifi chip. However on this github repository some kind of unofficial driver support is available, can this driver get the wifi chip working on Armbian ?

I solved the issue ! I flashed the latest armbian release raw image to the sdcard and plugged it in the TV box. It magically booted from the SDCard and now I have mmcblk2 as a block device. Now I can run armbian-install command to get everything going correctly.
