  1. @Andrea what is it you are trying to accomplish?  The reason I ask is that given what i see from those systems there are some significant challenges in having a boot A and boot B.  The first being that u-boot lives outside of the partitions at a specific location on the device(SD/emmc/etc).  So you really only can have one uboot, so that will be an area that won't be possible to have something to fall back to if an update of uboot fails.

    The second issue I see is that Armbian and the underlying Ubuntu/Debian push frequent software updates out via apt.  Their is no concept of firmware updates that are complete sets of updates, you get a few updates each week.  Which is good for security reasons as security updates are made available as soon as possible.  But for what I suspect you are trying to do, you will need to create a mechanism to periodically package all available apt updates into a firmware bundle to get installed into your other partition.

     

    But I'm just guessing on what you are trying to accomplish.  So a better explanation of your goals might be helpful.

  2. The Armbian build framework is constantly evolving.  As well as the software that it is building.  So generally each day a build will be slightly different from the previous days build (that is why there are nightly builds produced).  I don't know what you are trying to accomplish so I can't really help you any further than that.
