Hi there, my odroidc1 somehow died last month after updating to 5.3 test kernel so I decided to build new images from scratch starting from master. I did not touch any configuration and I choose to build the classical server image. Debian Buster boot but I cannot get any network Ubuntu 18.04 does not even boot with a u-boot error (see below) Ubuntu 19.10 does not even boot with a u-boot error (see below) Here it is the u-boot log of Ubuntu images: Does anyone have an idea on what is the problem and how to fix it? Thanks in advance *Ciao Piero

Hi, my rpi 4 with 4GB ram is now on my desk but I cannot find armbian for it: looking at github build repo I do not see any file regarding raspberry pi in general. So... is anyone interested to help me to work on it? Is there an armbian interest in having a Raspberry PI build? Why historically I cannot see any sign of interested in those boards? Please... I know of all of their HW limitations... but they sell millions of boards each year... it is clear that some million people out there find them useful so we (as community) should to deliver an armbian build for this SBC. Any thought? Any starting point? *Ciao Piero

Hi, while toying around build system for Odroid C1 I saw that toolchains for arm-linux-gnueabihf where "old" as we are at "gcc-linaro-7.2.1-2017.11-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf" since the 7.3.1 looks like it is not available for this platform. So I did some changes in lib/general.sh and added the following as a fast hack: "https://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/7.4-2019.02/arm-linux-gnueabihf/gcc-linaro-7.4.1-2019.02-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz" "https://developer.arm.com/-/media/Files/downloads/gnu-a/8.2-2019.01/gcc-arm-8.2-2019.01-x86_64-arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz" Then I modified the configuration files for odroidc1 to test both toolchains (namely config/sources/odroidc1.conf) and I produced working images with both toolchains. Personally (but without any scientific approach) I saw: 7.4.1 it looked like very slow to compile... maybe my system was busy doing other things maybe not 8.2 produced a smaller kernel (with same .config) and its speed was acceptable Is there a reason that arm-linux-gnueabihf is stil at 7.2.1 (2017.11)? Thanks in advance *Bye Piero

Hi all, I wrote to amlogic mailing list and I got the tips to build a kernel with DVFS enabled on OdroidC1. I redid some tests using sbc-bench: Original Odroid Ubuntu 16.04 with 3.10 kernel (1824MHz): http://ix.io/1zdB Armbian 5.74 with 5.0.0-rc5 kernel (1200MHz NO DVFS): http://ix.io/1ApT Armbian 5.75 with 5.0.0-rc5 kernel (1536MHz DVFS): http://ix.io/1APH Original 3.10 kernel has a big big margin on tinymembench (about twice as fast as 5.0.0-rc5 with DVFS); 3.10 is 50% faster in OpenSSL and both kernels are tie on 7-zip (a bit faster 5.0.0-rc5). Attached the kernel-config I used to build kernel as reference and dmesg. *Ciao Piero linux-5.0.0-rc5-dmesg.txt linux-odroidc1-next.config

I'm going to write to amlogic kernel mailing list to get more info on this issue. *Ciao Piero

Hi again, I run sbc-bench on both 5.0 kernel and original 3.10: results for the new kernel seem very disappointing. Does anyone have a clue? kernel 5.0 kernel 3.10 For sure cpu frequency is fixed in the newer kernel. *Ciao Piero

Hi, for your reference, here you can find the kernel config and source config for Odroid C1 pointing to latest amlogic mainline kernel. I'm testing this kernel as it contains many fixes for the problems listed on Odroid C1 download page: serial console only (don't really know... I'll check tonight this one) no DVFS, fixed CPU frequency (latest fixes should handle this one...going to test it tonight at home) no USB hotplugging, power the board with USB device is needed (latest fixes should handle this one...going to test it tonight at home) eMMC not supported (do not have an eMMC to test) reboot doesn’t bring up the board, you need to power cycle. (with this it can reboot properly) Good luck and let us know :) **Bye Piero linux-odroidc1-dev.config odroidc1.conf

Hi, toying around with Odroid C1 kernel compilation and trying new kernels (both 5.0-rc2 and the mainline amlogic kernel) there are some patches that do no apply correctly. Both general-packaging-4.17-next.patch and general-increasing_DMA_block_memory_allocation_to_2048.patch apply correctly if I remove the part of the patch referring arm64 architecture: is this fine? For sure Odroid C1 is a 32-bit SBC.. does anyone knows why there are references for arm64? If you agree I can create a pull request to remove those lines... Thanks **Bye Piero

Hi, thanks for the offer but I'm not of of those that can take a task for too long before getting bored and get distracted by something else. For sure, now that my odroid C1 is running armbian, you'll probably see me around here for the time being Many thanks for your work!!! Bye Piero

Hi all, I bisected the issue and I finally found the commit breaking odroidc1: 73341048187f4e9698c8f42b7c3ee022e19ef0b0 Do not ask me why (should not have such an impact) but this is the issue. If someone can revert the change for odroidc1-next I would be glad to test it During my test I found odroidc1 working fine with latest 4.19.17 kernel with only the 250hz change reverted. **Bye Piero

Hi all again, after a whole day compiling and running new images I found something strange: Armbian_5.59_Odroidc1_Debian_stretch_next_4.18.1.img boot fine and network is ok Armbian_5.72_Odroidc1_Debian_stretch_next_4.18.1.img boot fine but eth0 is not working So please note that I simply created a new image with current armbian master but with the working 4.18.1 kernel: from my point of view it looks like it is not a kernel problem as I thought until few minutes ago How can we spot the breaking change in armbian master? Does anyone have an idea? Attached you can find boot log of Armbian_5.72_Odroidc1_Debian_stretch_next_4.18.1.img Thanks in advance Bye Piero Armbian_5.72_Odroidc1_Debian_stretch_next_4.18.1.txt

Hi, finally I got serial access console and attached you can find boot logs. A small recap: Armbian_5.59_Odroidc1_Debian_stretch_next_4.18.1.img boot fine and network is ok Armbian_5.72_Odroidc1_Debian_stretch_next_4.19.16.img (compiled in Vagrant environment) boot fine but there is no network I see the culprit is probably this one: [ 14.853086] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready [ 14.853367] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: device MAC address b6:e8:26:b6:da:4a [ 14.853378] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: Could not attach to PHY [ 14.853386] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: stmmac_open: Cannot attach to PHY (error: -19) [ 15.064433] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready [ 15.084471] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: Could not attach to PHY [ 15.084486] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: stmmac_open: Cannot attach to PHY (error: -19) [ 15.193033] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready [ 15.225926] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: Could not attach to PHY [ 15.225958] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: stmmac_open: Cannot attach to PHY (error: -19) [ 15.239227] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready [ 15.293190] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: Could not attach to PHY [ 15.293213] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: stmmac_open: Cannot attach to PHY (error: -19) [ 15.306038] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready [ 15.352091] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: Could not attach to PHY [ 15.352111] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: stmmac_open: Cannot attach to PHY (error: -19) [ 15.370056] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready Does anybody have an idea?

Hi all, thanks for all responses You showed me many UART adapter and looking for them in amazon.it I can find them for an affordable price (less than 10€): I'm ordering one of them and I'll come back here with something more useful. Thanks Piero

Hi, I cannot find one for less than 30€ delivered at home (Italy)... with some more money I can buy a NanoPi Neo4 or some other supported board

Hi all, new armbian user and old Odroid C1 user here :) After seeing some mainline development on Odroid C1 I started tinkering with armbian build system. Actually I tried building latest armbian master (Armbian_5.71_Odroidc1_Debian_stretch_next_4.19.15.img) and Odroid C1 is not booting (well... it is probably booting... more details later :)). Same SD with latest release from armbian developers (Armbian_5.59_Odroidc1_Debian_stretch_next_4.18.1.img) is indeed working fine. This is observed behaviour with Armbian_5.71_Odroidc1_Debian_stretch_next_4.19.15.img: all lights on SBC blink as expected network plug light blinks as expected attached USB HD lights blink (so it seems it is read) and I clearly hear HDD heads moving around no network is accessible (my router is not giving a new IP :() So... from what I can see and observe the image built on my system (using provided Vagrant file) is booting but I cannot access it using network. I do not have a UART cable to inspect console :( Can anyone give me some hints? Meson 8b support by mainline is a very welcome news and kernel 4.19 and 4.20 show some big improvements. FYI I tried even to compile 4.20 and 5.0-rc1 (changing conf files and some patches) but result is always the same: booting (probably) but no network via dhcp. I can provide build logs but, from my eyes, nothing wrong is happening (kernel patching is ok, build is ok, no warning and no erroors). Hope you can understand my willing to help and my need for help and hints to fix it :) Thanks fro your work Bye Piero
