That is yo be expected. As I said earlier: You would need to create the empty aml_autoscript.zip file on this build manually.

What do you mean by "TV Box doesn't recognize the SD card"? How is it different from before?

Another way of triggering the running of the aml_autoscript file is to issue a 'adb reboot update' command through adb.

The current builds do not even include the aml_autoscript.zip file because it is rarely needed. There is nothing special about this file it is a zero byte dummy file, that is supposed to trigger the loading of the aml_autoscript file via some update apps.

There are different types of update apps, so when you run the update app on the old 5.9.0 build do you see the same interface as this how to article shows?

From the picture your box is a rebranded m8s pro+, as indicated by the board markings. In googling I have found the following like that shows someone being successful at installing Armbian (http://www.galipe.net/guide-mecool-m8sproplus-armbian/). (article in French, I used Google translate) So it should be possible. While those instructions are old, they show that it should work.

While unlikely, it could be on the other side of the motherboard.

Have you opened the case and looked for one?

I don't know if this is possible or not since I don't know anything about what Batocera is. Unless Batocera uses the same booting process as Armbian, it is unlikely.

@remolaan If your box has the s805x cpu (not s805 as your title indicates), you might have success following these instructions: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/17106-installation-instructions-for-tv-boxes-with-amlogic-cpus Using the meson-gxl-s805x-p241.dtb or meson-gxl-s805x-libretech-ac.dtb and the u-boot-s905x-s912 uboot file I'm not aware on anyone having ever tried this, but it might work.

@Ulltrium That version is multiple years old. I don't think there is anyone around the forums that can provide help on that old of a version.

@Cesar Inacio Martins Have you tried to use armbian-config to configure your networking? From the armbianmonitor output it appears you have valid eth0 and wlan0 interfaces.

@w114514 What box do you have? What image are you using?

What do you mean by this? There is no output at all, or no output after boot? What image are you using? Have you tried different hdmi monitors and different hdmi cables?

@Juan Arias You have not provided any useful information about your problem. Lets start with, what box do you have? What image are you using? What instructions are you following? What steps have you done in preparing your sd card for booting the box? What dtb/uboot are you using? What errors/messages are you getting?

In looking at past threads on this box, I would suggest trying other dtb files (if your box is s905x, try all the meson-gxl-s905x-* )

Why?

@Igor Per this post, it looks like there is a corrupted stable build.

Welcome to Armbian. I would suggest you read: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/16976-status-of-armbian-on-tv-boxes-please-read-first and https://forum.armbian.com/topic/17106-installation-instructions-for-tv-boxes-with-amlogic-cpus As for your question, I would recommend using a stable build not a development build. Also if that doesn't work, try a server (CLI) build. I've been seeing reports in the forums about hdmi not working across different builds when running desktop builds.

moved to correct forum

@yopp I assume you are following these instructions: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/17106-installation-instructions-for-tv-boxes-with-amlogic-cpus And you specifically are following this note: 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. If you have previously booted coreelec, armbian will not boot.

@Igor This has come up multiple times in the forums. Could/should https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/4954 be backported to 23.02? I'm not sure of the criteria for putting out patch releases for previous releases.

Already fixed: https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/4954

What dtb and u-boot are you using? No TV boxes are supported. Some work better than others, some not at all. Are you following the instructions here: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/17106-installation-instructions-for-tv-boxes-with-amlogic-cpus

What build are you using? What is the exact box you have? What steps have you taken to prepare your sd card?
