Hi Andrei, That's perfect, thank you for getting to this so promptly. Kind Regards, Paul

So, a little update from my side for whoever is interested in this (and again, thanks for reading). Been playing with the box 2-3 evenings every week since my last post and still impressed by it (considering what I plan to use it for), yet not there where it should be yet. Bookworm (some various archive images I found online) works fine, and I can install OMV via armbian config, although performance is bad and I’m talking here about applying changes using the UI - like it takes whole minutes, plus some expected issues for the 2.5g interface. Trixie, all good installing, OMV fails from armbian config but works fine via the OMV installation guide from their site, it’s snappy in applying changes, like not instant but just a few seconds. The 2.5g interface is still an issue and while I can get good results on writing to the box after trying various fixes found online (like a 4gb file write is just fine, the interface crashes and I lose connection while copying from it back to my pc). This doesn’t crash the device completely, still works fine on the 1g interface, and accessible, so from my point of view is more of a perf issue than a stability one. Overall, still happy having this box, but man you do spend a lot of time getting things right, an obviously I’m a newbie. Thanks for watching! (Just for clarity, my 1g interface is connected to my 1g router, and the 2.5 one directly to my desktop to a 2.5 usb network card, and this set up was working fine on buster)

Hey Paul - Once this gets merged it's going to be fixed, thanks for the report! https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/9349/ Best, Andrei

I think I've completed all tasks. Thus the OpiRV2 PR now waits for a team member to press the [merge] button probably. @maxsub I compiled 6.6.99 kernel on my board with 2Gb RAM once. Needed 3 hours and a decent swap file. HTH // Sven-Ola

I have managed to compile this on two different platforms (Ubuntu and MacOS) for both boards: RV2 and R2S. My RV2 has 8GB and has a 64GB eMMC. I am hoping to be able to build it on the R2S natively. Will let you know how that goes. Looking forward to seeing this PR merged into armbian:main. I think the GPU will remain orphaned. OrangePi decided to use a unsupported GPU and it seems mostly a check box for them v/s them truly intending to support it.
