https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/ kernel + dtb and u-boot come out deb packaged. You install them on the target and that's it. Only u-boot needs a special treatment - it used to update this way in the past but due to the problems we move it under manual update -> armbian-config -> system -> install/update boot loader ... for this case you don't need to update boot loader. Just remember to install image and dtb package. This is essential.

That's all. You need a superuser rights ofc.

USB is working under Buster but not your Z-Wave dongle? If that is the case, that is solvable by digging into the kernel config. You can do that on your own by recompiling kernel ... when you find out what is missing. Or just enable everything that looks related. Modern kernel for C1 needs to meet with developers/users. We are too small to cover this. Debian Stretch has troubles working with prehistoric kernels. Stock 3.10.y that comes with C1 is too old / on the edge. EOL Jessie is the only way. Or Xenial which is also on the way to become EOL. You will be alone fixing troubles there ...

No. This is the way you flash boot loader to the SD card. For doing this you need some Linux computer where you will be attaching SD card for repair/boot loader flash. No. Especially if your boot script is identical to the one from Github. You probably don't need to touch boot scripts. You need to alter /boot/armbianEnv.txt and change /dev/sda1 for its UUID version.

The problem is kernel. Modern kernel (in Buster image) is on experimental level, things are improving slowly - amateur development, while old is not supported anymore. And also not recommended to be used for something like that. I ran my Z-WAVE stuff on Allwinner H5 board, kernel 4.19.y To my knowing, USB should work, but not hot plugging. You have to boot with attached device. Make sure you read text on the download pages, especially "kernel issues".

Type "how to extract a deb file" into the google then look for u-boot.img.sdhc $1/ = path of u-boot.img.sdhc file $2 = /dev/yourSDcard device ... usually /dev/sda (be sure that this is not your Linux system drive)

boot binary are packed into deb files - extract them and DD to sdcard as noted previously. https://apt.armbian.com/pool/main/l/linux-u-boot-cubox-i-default/ boot.cmd and boot.scr (compiled version - how to is written in the end of the boot.cmd file). You need both. https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/config/bootscripts/boot-cubox.cmd

Do you use Armbian? We do have an "universe" repository where this package come from: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/lib/general.sh#L153-L163 https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/usbmount

I did. Once again: You are referring to a wrong documentation and asking why it doesn't work. It is expected to fail and I told you that. (now the 3rd time and last time) Read this to understand background: https://linux-sunxi.org/GPIO Step by step documentation? I don't know if it exists. I will not search it nor make it for you - you have to invest your own time with the essential information which you got here.

You have this? On which boards? Do we need to create a debug tool for our debugger?

IIRC AXP driver in modern kernel has limited functionality. Not on the level as legacy ... but nevertheless you can communicate with AXP via I2C ... there are some manuals for this (Google) I would say this is simply a bug. But where? There are no logs, we don't have this hardware, we don't use this kernel ... This is how you check if you run official Armbian which we can try to support: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/#how-to-check-download-authenticity

https://github.com/armbian/build/commits/master/config/sources/cubox.conf There were some major changes during this summer ... and we are very limited with testings changes on hardware. I am the only one dealing with this. Boot loader and kernel was updated which both represent major change. If your kernel was upgreaded and your u-boot not, this could explain the problem you are facing. Possible solutions: - updating u-boot manually https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/config/sources/cubox.conf#L51 - change kernel from next to default or vice versa This could be helpful: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Advanced-Features/#how-to-unbrick-the-system It could only be the problem of changing rootdev=UUID=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I believe its this change: https://github.com/armbian/build/commit/bea1df9ed6e4d1661c981ed488cd17dc2cf3d0e2#diff-4e3f23ec46130644ad2268eda44b6e3eR3356
