Building the image was surprisingly simple and my first impression is that it works just fine. Thank you all so much!
I uploaded the image Armbian_5.74_Bananapim2ultra_Debian_stretch_dev_4.20.6 here, in case anyone would need it: http://www.share-online.biz/dl/YQ026FMP1LO (I hope this link is allowed; sorry, if not).

You can, but not in this section, but here: https://forum.armbian.com/forum/23-community-forums BTW. board boots, just HDMI is broken - fixed in 4.20.y+
@Mario Schmidt Dont give up
The actual 4.20.6 image for the M2 Ultra does boot fine on the M2 Berry and HDMI/WiFi is working (tested console-server).
But it isnt directly downloadable at this time - you have to compile the image with the armbian-build-system: https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/
A small virtual (or real) Ubuntu-18.04-x64-Mini-Server and some commands and you are up and running for compiling the DEV-image with 4.20.6

Here in this screenshots you will see the M2 Ultra image with some of my optical configurations - so for me its look better at the M2 Berry
