Armbian_24.2.0_amlogic_s905x3_bullseye_5.15.145_server_2024.01.01.img.gz
This is not an Armbian build. Where did you download this from?

You should test performance for your use cases. Moving to emmc isn't going to make any real difference in performance, so if it isn't performing well enough for your use cases, it isn't going to get better.

Probably I will have same errors in "install-aml.sh" won't I ?
I don't know. Those scripts are written very differently so the bug you ran into on ddbr may or may not appear for the install script.

1. Do you agree that this is correct?
What you did to force the script to select the proper devices looks good.

Yes those are the dtb files to try. But you shouldn't expect that you are going to have all of the hardware work on these boxes. For example, of the boxes I own, I don't have working wifi on any of them. Just so your expectations are set correctly, please read it you haven't already: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/16976-status-of-armbian-on-tv-boxes-please-read-first

Is the only solution?
Yes. Unless you have the uboot skills to figure out what the aiden rom uboot setup is doing and figure out how to merge the multiboot code into that process.
On the performance side of things, have you tried running from a good quality SD card?
-
You need to find and restore the original manufacturer's firmware to get back to where you started from.
When you say armbian from usb was too slow, what exactly was slow? Running from emmc isn't going to make much if any speed difference. I'm not sure what you are expecting for performance from this.

what is the output of lsblk?
-
Try changing the following line in the script:
runfrom=$(lsblk | grep / | grep -oE '(mmcblk[0-9]|sda[0-9])')
to
runfrom=$(lsblk | grep / | grep -oE '(mmcblk[0-9]|sda[0-9])' | uniq)
-
Well, ddbr is a bash shell script. I think you may just need to dig in and debug what is going on. The script is parsing the output of lsblk.

Does give you a "Key" ?
That is the uboot output. That has nothing to do with ddbr. And yes that is expected output from uboot since linux can't read the android partition table. What is the error/log you are getting from ddbr?
-
If you can see /dev/mmcblk1 while running armbian off of your sd you have emmc.
You say that ddbr can't detect emmc, what messages/log from your run of ddbr can you provide?

After I can make the backup, I will try to install from SD card to EMMC. Then I will solve the problem about audio. I understand that once I have "linux" installed in emmc I can boot with any bootable usb drive, update drivers, and so on, isn't it?
I would warn against installing to emmc. That should be the last thing you do. First get your environment working as you want then once everything works correctly you may want to install to emmc. Running off of emmc doesn't give you any benefits along the lines you are thinking.

It seems it's the old obsolete version of 20 on s905x3 or nothing.
That is a generalization that isn't true. I have s905x3 boxes that work. So it may be an issue with your specific box not having a dtb that is compatible in the newer builds. What box do you have?
-
I pointed to that reference as it answers your question about the mapping between glx, gxbb and s905x, etc.
As this thread points out the current builds do not work on s905x3. But that is a different issue than what I was pointing out to you.

, I don't know what GXBB or GXL is, I only know that I have s905x3
This is explained in the FAQ instructions: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/17106-installation-instructions-for-tv-boxes-with-amlogic-cpus

Also, what image of Armbian are you trying?
-
Can you capture a pic of the boot messages you are seeing?

my new TX3 mini (Amlogic S902w).
There is no such cpu. Can you specify the cpu you have? There are many different versions of boxes labeled tx3 mini, so you need to be specific. Pictures of the motherboard would also be helpful.

Known issue see the above thread

You need to find the correct Android firmware for your device and reinstall it according to the instructions for that firmware (usually USB burning tool)
-
The first full paragraph in the instructions says:
Note: If you have previously run other distributions on the box such as coreelec the below installation will not work. You will need to restore the original android firmware before attempting the install. coreelec changes the boot environment in ways that are incompatible with these Armbian builds.
Can't boot with 23.05 or later builds on s905x2 (g12a) or s905x3 (sm1)

@JuFe00 That is a fork of Armbian not Armbian. They use the Armbian name without permission. They do not contribute to Armbian development nor do they participate in these forums. If you have questions about their builds, you need to ask on their support/forums, we can't help here with software we know nothing about.
