I tried same thing and found out that something is wrong about spi image included there for armbian-install. For now jammy is working fine, but not debian (tried cli on ext4), it will not find nvme drive and don't try to boot from it. replacing spi with this one: https://github.com/huazi-yg/rock5b/releases/download/rock5b/rkspi_loader.img made it working again.

Great news!

I know that, this just adds some cost and complexity for installation. I hope that some day nvme will be supported in SPI and there will be no need for SD or eMMC. Have You convinced firefly for non-emmc versions? are there chances for that? No worries, probably it requires some extra work and more kernel config. I will come back to this after new year. For now I need to focus on rk3399 (t4, rockpro64 and r4s). Thanks for your time

NVME is still much faster option than any eMMC. I can't find information how many pcie lanes are attached to m.2 slot. 1x is slightly better than usb3 and eMMC. Some boards have 1x (like khadas vim3) some 2x (like some jetsons and rock 3a) and some 4x (like nano pc-t4 or rockpro64 via pcie slot). Here is simple script from k3s to check basic things, It does not cover everything but report obvious things about kernel: curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/k3s-io/k3s/master/contrib/util/check-config.sh | bash

Can You start directly from NVME? I will be using them on cluster so I don't really need HDMI for now. Have You tested docker and AI features on it? I know about them but i can't do anything with them till I get one of those boards Thanks for Your work on it

Hello, that is clear I'm just curious about 5.x kernel on this soc. I plan to get at least one after new year. Is it already in github armbian build repo? I could find p1/m1 configs only

Sorry Igor, I meant Armbian, but wrote Raspbian You are completely right about that. I'm not vendor and don't expect anything to do on my interest, just was curious about 5.x kernel for rk3568 which is quite new and probably more devices with it are coming soon. You are right about old kernels and manufacturer support quality but this is rather more about rockchip than radxa. This CPU is new and I hope more manufacturers will use that and system on v4 or v5 kernel will be much better. I got one that board because of its specs and just looking what is now available

I noticed that You built both 4.19 and 5 kernels for rk3568, do 5.x version works? is it stable? RK3568 was recently added to mainline but it's first build with v5. I see some changes on Your repo for rockchip kernel and rk35xx-next branch.

Any chances for Raspbian build for RK3568 Rock 3A soon? It should be very similar to already supported Firefly P2 (same chip) In fact image for v4.19 kernel works with some errors, v5 is not booting at all
