    Mmmmmm, I don't know why have to revert, but 4.18.0 rc7 works well except wifi.


    Because that branch is temporarily development branch with a purpose to develop a few things. We only have two choices here - switch to current 4.18.y, say goodbye to HDMI for a while and fix other things, wifi perhaps ... or wait until HDMI is not mainlined. Other options are too expensive.

    I have to remind you that this board is under development and regressions are possible. Some are intended, some not.

  2. We have a few problems here. First is that sunxi64-next branch was reverted back to 4.14.y since 4.18.y just not ready yet ... in 4.14.y there is no support for H6 ... I can only switch to sunx64-dev, where the board boots, but without http://ix.io/1nK7 HDMI, WiFi and USB3 seem also not to function properly.

    Should I apply this?

    Thanks I'll try that way, is there a reason why the fex editor is removed from armbian-config under system?


    Fex editor is not there if there are no sunxi-tools installed or if you are running a mainline kernel ... or there is a bug, your system is broken somehow.

    Can I find it anywhere else?


    If GUI is not operational, there is always a manual way: bin2fex and fex2bin tools. If not, you install them, eventually compile from sources.

    So where did your comment 'usb hotpluging and network sometimes doesn't work properly' originates from then?


    Network troubles were in the past while (non-critical) USB hotplugging is still present. As you can see I manually tested most of the boards and already that was on the edge what I can do "by the way". I am not sure I will do that ever again and certainly not within the next 6 months. It's painful, time wasteful and it goes by completely unnoticed.

    It's about the process! If an update is to be expected to break functionality then why enrolling it?


    I didn't expect that it will break and my C2 works also when updated to latest nightly. Here https://github.com/armbian/testings everything looks fine -> From the information that I have its safe to update.

    Unbootable kernel with OPi One Plus confirmed, runs into panic, reading from UART. There is something wrong with the later 4.18.x kernel. 4.18.0-rc7 from @Icenowy sources working well.

     

    But this kind a runs off topic I guess ;)


    I'll try to bring it up in 4.19.y ... some basic support is getting mainlined and it will be less troublesome. I hope.

    Why not fixing it or at least always update this package too with version bumps?


    With the latest update, it should be 5.60 ... but perhaps after reboot/logout/login?

     

    Well, perhaps it's time to enforce some already proposed naming for a version of Armbian and use this numbering only for our internal process. 

     

    Armbian 2018.10

    Armbian 18.04

    Armbian Some_Generic_Names

     

    Let's make a separate topic or attach to existing for those changes.

    If anyone has an idea ?

     


    Try blacklisting wireless (xradio) and set lower max CPU frequency (/etc/default/cpufrequtils). Some revisions of this board have overheating issues ... which are a possible cause for troubles.

    If I reboot the device with usb plugged the boot fail, so i have to boot without usb plugged and then plug usb and restart ser2net daemon to make it work.


    Where does it hang?

    Is this expected behaviour for the rock64 Debian image? In that, you have to manually configure eth0 after running through the install process or is this a bug?


    According to our testings, there is no bug: https://github.com/armbian/testings 

    On some boards, it can take a little longer that networks get initialized. Your logs show expected entry:
    [ 13.398258] rk_gmac-dwmac ff540000.ethernet eth0: Link is Up - 100Mbps/Full - flow control off
