  1. First, you choose a wrong upgrade ... Cubietruck is sun7i not sun4i .. and which you figured out and solved properly.

     

    The other problem is in my repository (apt.armbian.com) and I haven't got a chance to fix it. Sun7i kernel doesn't download proper update: version (4.6) but (4.51). The case here is that v4.51 was a quick fix only for sun7i, not for other boards. The problem is Debian package numbering which I haven't pay enough attention too. When it will be fixed it will be fixed the standard apt-get update way.

     

    Thanks for bringing up and sorry for this confusion.

  2. There is a problem with (simple) frame buffer initialization if your monitor is too large in matter of pixels. I figured out this just recently when I hooked a board to UHD HDMI monitor. Need to look into u-boot code and check how can this be solved.

     

    Second issues is that u-boot sometimes breaks booting if you have an USB keyboard inserted or some other strange device. Boot script breaks "on any key pressed", so board doesn't boot.

     

    I can only say it's a general bug, not just Armbian's

  3. Now I am a bit consed. I just build a new image for A10 from clean sources and install it to NAND with root on SATA drive. Zero problems. What's clean image different from upgrade? I'll upload a complete pack later and try that first.

     

    There is one common issues .. sometimes, when NANDs boot part gets corrupted it's necessary to install stock Android / Ubuntu to NAND with factory tools (Phoenix suite) and do the install part again. It doean't look that you need to do this but it's an option to try.
