Take a look at universal projects that are made far better, and are universal by design. https://forum.armbian.com/forum/40-reviews-tutorials-hardware-hacks/ (pinned topics)

They are not needed. We use flash media friendly and more advanced ZSWAP solution by default. https://www.google.com/search?q=zswap If you don't want to have this, you can of course disable this feature in /etc/defaults/ (will be soon added to armbian-config) and add swap file. But that is not recommended.

Try here: https://rsync.armbian.com/oldarchive/ We can't possibly maintain this further, sorry.

Running Debian bullseye? This is EOL. Edit: Aha, yes, that's it. https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/669004/zst-compression-not-supported-by-apt-dpkg

Yes, we should probably add REPLACE: neofetch to the control file. Well, there are several reasons for this: - we are patching neofetch on our own to add Armbian branding. As Neofetch is not maintained anymore, we can't add Armbian normal / official ways by opening a PR at their GH - we would like to switch to fastfetch but this has to be resolved first https://armbian.atlassian.net/browse/AR-2336 (we have extreme lack of hands since ever as we focus into kernel space hard problems, so there is no way to proceed on this) - during the switch to new generation of armbian-config there are many things to tackle and this (known problem) simply live somewhere in backlog This is how this transition is made and we could probably remove this double packaging to make it easier. We already pack it at Armbian config repo https://github.com/armbian/configng https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/lib/functions/compilation/packages/armbian-config-deb.sh

Test most recent builds: (still in testing) https://rsync.armbian.com/incoming/schwar3kat/rock-5c/archive/

I think it is better to expand script to support those scenarios. https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/packages/bsp/common/usr/sbin/armbian-install Worse case, write things here: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/#how-to-install

Headers are released via repository and that is done when images are tested. In about a week.

Great job! Interested for integration into main config tool? https://github.com/armbian/configng Now this tools is properly made. https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Armbian-Software/#adding-example

The problem you are experiencing is probably related to some incompatibility when assembling 32bit OMV. We can't test all assemblies manually (we have no other option) on all targets. Perhaps moving installer to run-time is better? https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Armbian-Software/#adding-example We will eventually add this, but help is appreciated.

I am slowly working on a script, but currently doesn't provide expected results: https://github.com/armbian/configng/blob/main/tools/modules/system/release_upgrade.sh Also it will remain as experimental as this goes into upstream bugs which are beyond our control or resources to fix after thousands of people that are behind all those packages. Where single one can cause this upgrade to break ...

Also documentation (related to this topic) is now in right state of mind: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Armbian-Software/#adding-example It is hard to add software title we never tried, installed and / or know nothing about, then expert user of this software adding it to (armbian-config) installer. We focused to make this task as simple as possible, to encourage you doing that and not opening us tasks (we already have 1000 x too many and won't ever complete). We added popular titles to the system, which have some value for us, while everything else is mocked by more important tasks in other sections. But mechanism is there - use it, its user / developer friendly. Also its a nice and easy way to contribute to the open source.

Perfect example to explain how anyone can fix such trivial problems without involving me. Which is essential for the project to survive. There are and always will be way too many problems for too little maintainers ... Bug is here, yes, and can be easily fixed, especially if you already have a solution. I am happier to provide guidance then doing this on my own (which takes a lot less efforts). Solution is adding a package here: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/config/desktop/jammy/environments/gnome/config_base/packages (jammy has same packages as noble and is symlinked). Every contribution counts, even this banal. We have different Chromium versions, patched for this and that, then with and without snap ... It is a surprise that we can provide a desktop where accelerated video playback works on Rockchip RK35xx platform, which we support better then Rpi. Where all this probably just works if you download any Chromium?

If this was not mentioned in a release log https://docs.armbian.com/Release_Changelog/ and since you already asked, there is no need and you should not ask again. https://forum.armbian.com/store/category/2-support/ and I will try to hire someone for you or fix on your own. This is your problem, not ours. Buy some other hardware. it is cheaper then fixing this. I hate being an ass-hole, but If we don't stand for ourselves, nobody will, certainly not constantly unhappy and desperate free-software-riders users. Remember this rule once and forever: applying a pressure to open source developers is worse thing you can do here. There are thousands of other problems when we can only address one. And you cover 0.5% for that one: https://github.com/sponsors/armbian Do the math. There is build framework https://github.com/armbian/build download it, dig into the code and fix it. Then open a pull requests. As you can see, we are physically, emotionally and financially unable to support your (endless) greed for software perfection. Don't take this personally as its not. Most of people on cheap hardware, that fully relies on exploiting open source developers, acts similar. We develop and maintain open source software for fun and we chose what that is! With little time that is available. Average resolution time for bugs in open source software is 5-7 years and there is nothing we can do. If you scream, complain or emotionally blackmail us. Closing. @Werner Feel free to re-open, once this kernel will be supported, probably Q1 - Q2 / 2025. Only confirmation that "it works" is expected to be added here, we don't need yet another "still doesn't work" ... ever.

If you would like to use 2 years old kernel with not a single fix applied after initial release, use version of Armbian from Orangepi site. This question was answered on Orangepi download pages. For everyone. To spare answering same questions over and over again. Which is devastating for mental health and expensive when we pay everything and you nothing. Only when you like - donation.

I change the text to: "we will be able to proceed once your donations for entire project reaches at least 1000 USD per month. " Even this miracle happens, we will still be making a huge loss, supporting mainly subjects that compete with us with our money (Orangepi is one of them, stealing value from us in order to sell you cheap hardware). That far away we are. I am sure GitHub supports all kinds of payment methods and random donations method supports that too. If you ask us to repair something, donation doesn't works. That is a professional service, which are paid at standard rates - this is for vendors that doesn't contribute in any way. Fixing resources are expensive and scarce. This is open source - shitty operation are not Armbian problem, but Orangepi, yours.

This is the only "fix" we can finance from your donations: "PCI support is broken on vendor kernel (6.1.xx) on versions higher then 24.8.1. Use this version and freeze kernel (armbian-config -> system) prior to updating OS. PCI works on other Rockchip 3588 devices, while fixing this on all represent expensive technical challenge which we can't finance. With Orangepi devices we have extremely high negative support budget while your yearly donations are not on the level to compensate this loss. Alternative operating systems that relies on our work face the same problem. We appreciate for your understanding." https://www.armbian.com/orangepi-5/ So does previous Armbian image. Use provided instructions or only buy (probably a bit more expensive) from vendors that supports open source developers.

Can you provide screenshot and some logs (armbianmonitor -u)

Usually catching last week. If you have followed instructions on download site, https://www.armbian.com/odroid-m1/, then you have u-boot. Which is fine.

Switch to nightly build and try. Or just wait few weeks for 2024.11 update. Are you perhaps booting with petitboot? We fixed this some time ago: https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/7245

Probably what you are asking works, best to just try image on something, perhaps VM. I only use one (1) official add-on, which is Z-wave ..
