yeah, after reformatting eMMC (using nand-sata-install), I have a blank armbian running on eMMC. Now I can push my backop on eMMC and roll again This helios64 has too much failures, I will transfer the disks back to the helios4 I still have, and the server software to a Intel N100 mini PC...

OK , I can boot from USB. Let's see what happened... EDIT: and access to the eMMC and disk 1 (system + swap). Both seems OK. Will reformat eMMC and see what happens

Hi! My Helios64 crashed, rebooted, then refuses to continue. Seems something is corrupted : the eMMC module? The eMMC contains the /boot folder, then the rootfs is on 1st disk, sda1. So I didn't lose anything, I guess. I will try to boot an microSD card with armbian and if it works, I will boot from it. With the sd card, it doesn't boot, I will disable eMMC with the jumper as documented in the wiki Is it fixable?

I am stuck on pwm->chipdata that is no more accessible in 6.10 I am no linux expert, just have good C knoledge So I will stay on kernel 6.6 for now.

Hi, I am trying to update the patch for kernels 6.10 and 6.11 (same code). My first try was not successful (compile error), I will try again, I think I've understood what the patch will do, but there are a lot off differences between kernel versions 6.6 and 6.10, maybe some new lines need to be patched too. Once it compiles and runs fine on my helios 4, I will provide the patch 😉 Kind regards, Xavier.

Hi @Heisath I saw that the mvebu kernel patches exist for kernel 6.10 but the Helios4 fan patch has been disabled what is the status of this patch for kernel 6.10 ? How can I help for? Xavier

Hi, I am testing kernel 6.7 and I don't have crashes for now. It seems stable. Will confirm it after some weeks of operations.

I still have NFS issues & kernel panics with the updated u-boot and patched kernel 6.6.8, I will investigate, this is probably not related to Helios64 and those patches (vanilla kernel do also have crashes with NFS). No issues with kernel 6.1.70

Hi!, I finally reverted to 6.1.* kernel series because I have NFS hanging with kernel 6.5. This series is very stable.

I don't use the 2.5Gbps interface, since I have old 100/1000 switches...

the fix is also present in 6.5.8 🙂 DWC3 USB ports are back !

Hi!, I tried kernel 6.5.2 vanilla make oldconfig, + enable JMicron PATA driver USB is working but I don't know if dwc3 is by chance reset or due to the fix... EDIT: dwc3 reset still doesn't work, waiting for the fix So yes, please freeze your kernels

Hi, I also have dwc3 usb issues since kernel 6.4.12 (mainstream vanilla). It seems there is a regression. a patch is recently in discussion: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/ba6285cb-f9ff-8047-ad53-1f4534517b66@synopsys.com/T/ Kernel 6.5 doesnt boot, I will check if I enabled the PCI SATA bridge So, try to keep kernel <= 6.4.11
