Aha, you mean you miss this: This adds: board_name=hc1 to /boot/armbianEnv.txt and then correct DT is loaded. But also if not, it won't be big difference. You are safe to use defaults. Overlays for this kernel: As I can see, we don't have support for overlay handling at all. Not in old, not in this one. You need to edit /boot/boot.ini and add / replace it in this line: setenv overlays "i2c0 i2c1 hktft-cs-ogst" Also there is a problem here: ext4load mmc 0:1 0x60000000 /boot/dtb/overlays/${overlay}.dtbo In current circumstances, you need to have ext4load mmc 0:1 0x60000000 /boot/dtb/${overlay}.dtbo Edit: since this is the only board that is using boot.ini, we won't be adjusting armbian-config, but I have updated instructions on the download page: https://www.armbian.com/odroid-xu4/ prevent confusion and disable menu as its not supported by the tool https://github.com/armbian/configng/pull/285

Dietpi is group of people (one scripting guy and two support for forums) that download images and resell under different name. There is no build process of Dietpi, there is no development. Its mainly repacking / sales of our & others work for their gain. Dietpi is a group that in 10 years of existence managed to return less then 5 fixes they found (every line is a fix of something. This is just a work into common code for past 3 months). They never contributed in common efforts, they never return anything to people they are taking from, from us and from you. We are not alone, but hey, they compete with us, they say Debian and our work is trash, while they use numbers manipulation (kilobytes of packages on images, processes at start and similar BS) to support selling their scam. Its a shame that such projects are held accountable and being compared. We don't compare with them, but here you can see some insight https://docs.armbian.com/#key-advantages (dietpi is one of armbian downstream projects) If our image doesn't work and theirs works, is certainly a work of randomness. How they made their image? They developed a bash script, that they use to convert / rebrand any Debian based image into Dietpi. In this process it is impossible to improve what is already broken. That is hard work, and they never did any of it. Since kernel updates are directly linked to, a copy of our packages, they are not bringing any changes ... Images are untested, but I am sure it can't be worse then a copycat: https://www.armbian.com/odroidc1/ Thank you. Dietpi did little to nothing. Not here and not with other devices they "support".

Its not a problem of armbian-config but we messed up while packing device tree overlay. We have to fix this and sent out service update. But that will take few weeks. In the mean time copy dtbo files into subfolder: root@odroidxu4:~# mkdir -p /boot/dtb/overlay root@odroidxu4:~# mv /boot/dtb/*.dtbo /boot/dtb/overlay/ Then it will work.

OMV install touches many things in the system which is beyond our possibility & interest to know. This is probably a question for OMV forums.

By default, with Ubuntu, yes, with Armbian no. We pull snap free version from Mozilla PPA team: https://github.com/armbian/os/blob/main/external/firefox-noble.conf and apply hack - repack with higher version then provided by Ubuntu: https://github.com/armbian/scripts/blob/main/.github/workflows/download-and-test-external.yml#L258-L269 following by pushing to our repositories.

It also features unrivalled extensibility. and there is no dependency for snapd. I will need to look closely when time permits.

This is fix, just perhaps too noisy. If you don't want to see those messages, change this on your system: https://github.com/armbian/os/commit/36fc679bbb38cdff4223e14a0552c638f577d56b Without you will have your HA always unhealthy. Background: https://github.com/home-assistant/supervisor/issues/4381 This should happen only once after reboot. As we are running a vendor kernel on those devices, there could be issues beyond our control. Once LTS kernel will be available for this HW, we recommend to switch to it. I am running HA, with the exact same method, on Odroid N2 running mainline kernel. Everything works perfectly stable for months.

This package is hosted at our repository, you can delete the list: sudo rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/githubcli.list For the Firefox, I have to check. Our package should be snapd free. Perhaps try to uninstall firefox, remove snapd and install firefox again (should be downloaded from armbian repo).

Should be fixed with: https://github.com/armbian/scripts/commit/9fe944b9c275116a1811f24c76714846ced39f50

Interested perhaps in becoming official maintainer?

Yes, this automation is certainly not accurate, but cuts away some nonsense such as building Gnome or KDE Neon images for entry level sbc, regardless of memory. While XFCE is always there ... I don't mind in any way, its just optimisation of ready-made images.

Not with Armbian. Please provide logs.

Same problem here:

No, it doesn't. This needs to be done beyond. sudo apt purge linux-image-legacy-sunxi64 linux-dtb-legacy-sunxi64

Remove -legacy- kernels from the system.

This logic: https://github.com/armbian/os/blob/main/.github/workflows/recreate-matrix.yml#L185-L201 determines section. "slow-hdmi" is reserved for armhf by default, but I guess we could extend this for several entry level arm64, just how? https://github.com/armbian/os/blob/main/userpatches/targets-release-standard-support.yaml#L108 and those "slow-hdmi" only gets XFCE desktop.

There has been several recent changes in the Rock S0 support, which were not in those images yet. Is that bad or not, I don't know. Follow other changes that are waiting https://github.com/armbian/build/pulls and once merged, make an image, by adding a HA extension https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Switches/#advanced or try this way https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Armbian-Software/HomeAutomation/#install-home-assistant on top of Armbian Bookworm with Network Manager networking extension (this is requirement for HA to work).

Did you perhaps tried CURRENT, 6.6.y ? ... here is more to check if 3d rendering works, which is needed at Cina / Gnome. Performances are as they are, its an old horse.

Chromium on Debian is reported broken upstream and there is nothing we can do about except forwarding you this information https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1088162 If you are not an expert, use recommended download options, Ubuntu Noble, where we control Chromium and where it works. Be happy that we are able to provide you that (only working) option. Here you can make a donation.

This was moved under a switch to prevent users for switching into kernels that are not meant for end-users. https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/config/boards/rock-5b.conf#L7 And this https://github.com/armbian/configng/blob/main/tools/modules/system/switch_kernels.sh is the logic for anyone that might to change / improve this.

Single board computers and especially TV boxes are meant for advanced Linux users due to random low level support. Here you can surely learn a lot about Linux internals, but Linux users experience, if you want to use computer for daily tasks, will be better if you start with a mainstream Linux: https://www.armbian.com/uefi-x86/ https://www.armbian.com/rpi4b/ Also worth reading: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/16976-status-of-armbian-on-tv-boxes-please-read-first/

This was not designed by Armbian. I replied here: https://github.com/armbian/configng/issues/265#issuecomment-2487678726 Workaround: remove armbian-config package, upgrade to Bookworm, and install it again.
