@theflashdesignalright, it boots fine  Though couldn't get network running, checked /etc/network/interfaces tried dhcp and static ip but nothing worked. Even if static ip was assigned couldn't ping my other network devices. Will see more. Thanks for info anyway it's something already!

NICE I've been really trying to get lakka to run on this box but it fails to boot every time

@theflashdesignhello, where is this file Armbian_5.86_Aml-s905_Ubuntu_bionic_default_5.1.0_desktop_20190514.img ?
so I need to burn it to usb and then replace dtb ? thanks

I think this is the link that I used I'm not on my PC right now.  Yes to USB I also flash the aml-update.zip file in Android (don't) check any boxes that say wipe then reboot unplug power hold reset at boot. It worked for my box but no wifi
