latest nightly build.
Thank you for reporting. Problem will be solved in one of next developer preview (nightly) upgrades. You can also step up and join development efforts - https://docs.armbian.com/Process_Contribute/ and help fix troubles when they arise. -

Not working for me either (cubietruck), got ct-lubuntu-server-nand-v2.0 on the nand and then I was only able to select boot from SD and system on SATA, other options were not displayed.
Anyone got it working?
NAND install works only on legacy kernel versions. -

But after reading and trying it didn't work. Apparently you seem to think that everything that is written works for everyone which is not the case.
Stable images are tested - we are not wasting your time.
If you have Orange Pi Zero:
1. Download https://dl.armbian.com/orangepizero/Ubuntu_xenial_default.7z2. Burn to SD and boot
3. Login via serial or SSH and execute: nmtui-connect This connects you to wireless network in no time.
If you have some other board, download appropriate image and sends us logs if things doesn't work that we can improve Armbian (and it's derivates
If you don't use Armbian or wrong Armbian image, manual might not work.
Anyone can try and confirm this - you are doing something wrong.
QuoteDietpi is neatly more adapted to orangepizero for beginner and easy installation.
Their "more" adaptation of Orangepizero is exactly zero.

But I couldn't start wireless wifi network.
It's really that hard to put "wireless" into docs search? This is first and correct hit:
https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/#how-to-connect-to-wireless
BTW. Next build comes with armbian-config, where you will be able to config directly from menu ... and learn nothing.

Dietpi is made from Armbian Debian server. Low level (kernel / u-boot) bugs are the same, while they certainly created new bugs in user space level due to hard modifications. Modifications also raises security risks. "unimportant" packages were removed - which actually transfer normal build into half network install - and this stripped down image provide them a reason to claim a label "lightweight" which is not true.
You need to run Armbian Debian or Ubuntu to be able to make use of such low level utilities.

I have a small sdcard on an orange pi zero and I would like just to keep it for booting,

Trying to boot from MMC1MMC: no card present

As you can see there is no release date yet. This means update text and update itself is not ready yet.

They are build automatically every day and no one knows if images works - we can't automate this kind of testing. We label images experimental, for developers - sometimes they work, sometimes don't ... until some developer invest his time, inspect and fix the problem.
We already started to talk about how we will solve this "daily building problem", since it produce much more problems than benefits. People simple does not read before download or does not understand what experimental means. Support questions regarding unfinished product (we are months away) are keep coming, even it's written everywhere that we don't provide any support for experimental and development builds. It's simply not possible. -

Correct about gigabit network, false about USB3. Check https://www.armbian.com/download, features - at least theoretical - are up to date. Note that USB3 implementation on boards with actionsemi chip does not work properly. / not at usb3 speed

Orange Pi PC+ boots fine ... except boot logo is not working. GMAC at A20 than. Will check some H3 gmac if there are any troubles.

Huh? And older releases boot fine?
Yes. I just boot PC+ with 2017.03 and it boots fine. Slim chances that it was not recognised before and it is now.Could be SD card issue, but now I have 2017.03 and it works. Will do more tests ...
Edit: Banana PRO is real problem, reported by some user few days ago.

Opi One/Lite/PC+ , the latter gives:

I was doing some testing and it looks latest u-boot is broken for Allwinner H3 (no boot), A20 (Banana no network), I assume A10 too. There was some RFC upstream, but I did not go further into details ... Shall we rather rollback to 2017.03?

Ethernet does not working for legacy kernel + desktop, generated by Igors build tool: ARMBIAN 5.27 stable Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS 3.4.113-sun7i.
It looks like in last u-boot some parameters were messed up for some Allwinner boards. Workaround:https://forum.armbian.com/index.php?/topic/4374-compiling-kernel-for-banana-pi/

I've read many posts here and understand the OPi0 wireless chip isn't very well liked.
Opi Zero is not suitable for such complex setup. Even you manage to patch the driver (for which you need advanced knowledge) and get all this working, performance would be terrible.
Consider attaching some proven USB wireless chip or get Opi Zero 2 H3, which have at least a decent wireless chip and where this might be possible to achieve.

I also does not experience any screen tearing with our build. There was some in system on eMMC, one of the first Ayufan's builds.
45 minutes ago, pfeerick said:is it going to be possible to add a boot screen and possibly the charge indicator/power on reason screen, or is that likely to be in the too hard/unimportant and unnecessary frills basket?
Some small rework of u-boot will be needed for that but I guess its doable. But first I wanted to solve "going to suspend when lid is closed". I think it's some xfce related issue, since lid driver is present and working, manual suspend also work, ... -
It's from Xunlong, but boards are not yet ready for testing AFAIK.

IMO this needs to be discussed separately, not in this thread.
Than let's find out how many useful feedback do we actually get? If usually made an image and test - almost don't use them, but I use repository.Phase out process. Supported from me and S500 is the first on the list. I would only remove them from download section, where some note / link should be added - "deprecated / unsupported / .. or smth like that.
3rd point. Agree.
-
Mainline = experimental, no support. Network driver will be changed.
Armbian support feels like a bunch of parrots each time one of those questions from experimental area pops out

I uploaded images with most recent kernel (4.11.3) - one last check if it's any better. I am not sure we have any power and knowledge to deal with such weirdo / random problem. Perhaps folks at Freescale knows more about?
How about old / legacy kernel? Just to see if it's working there ...
-
Not exactly trivial, but you need to add something like this:
https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/patch/kernel/sun8i-dev/enable-codec-opi-2.patch
to board device tree which you can find in /boot/dtb ... decompile .dtb and back.
-
On board audio is most likely disabled in config (/boot/script.bin) since the board does not provide it by default.

That patch can't directly be used on mainline kernel, while it can most likely be applied on our old 3.4.113 kernel ... Unfortunately we don't have this hardware to test but luckily I am meeting Olimex people this weekend and will brought up this issue.
