  1. FYI. They don't do any development, bug fixing or supporting boards they suppose to "support". Their pages are full of BS, but nobody cares as "their" product is usually legitimately working at least as good as others - if they manage to copy Armbian / RaspberryPi OS well. Its easy and fully automatized. HW stability, which few Armbian people lost several thousands of hours for, can't be worse as they only add some bash script and change brand name. Code is binary the same, they even abuse Armbian repository infrastructure without a shame. This is nothing as they also try to abuse our human support infrastructure without a shame. "Armbian must ... support ... fix ... yesterday" is in their heads when problems starts. And this is the world where you never can close all bugs. Not even close and not with resources project have. Why this board doesn't work? Armbian does not support it officially as we are drowning in hardware - when you don't steal all critical value from others then this represent serious problem and expense. If you didn't know this, if they forget informing their users that everything that is important is not their job, but others ... then this really stinks. And makes many peoples work, those that invest their days into open source, worthless.
  2. Preparation Supported build environment is Ubuntu Focal 20.04 x64 (minimal iso image). a guest inside a VirtualBox or other virtualization software, a guest managed by Vagrant . This uses Virtualbox (as above) but does so in an easily repeatable way. Please check the Armbian with Vagrant README for a quick start HOWTO, inside a Docker , systemd-nspawn or other container environments (example), running natively on a dedicated PC or a server (not recommended), 20GB disk space or more and 2GB RAM or more available for the VM, container or native OS, superuser rights (configured sudo or root access). Execution apt-get -y install git git clone https://github.com/armbian/build cd build ./compile.sh This will download all necessary sources, execute compilation and/or build a boot-able image. Most of things will be cached so next run will be extremely faster! Real time examples: Documentation
