Go to https://www.armbian.com/rk322x-tv-box/ and download Focal xfce desktop stable with 5.10.y kernel and follow procedure for installing image to nand or sdcard.

Yes, you are right it, is not so bad performance wise between 4.4 and 5.9. Any clues why is 4.4 unstable, for sure, it is cheap and slow computer but new kernel works without issues and there was no problems with Android on it? Firefox crashes (Chromium is great) but system does not stops working because of it, 5.9 works flawlessly.

After nothing was successful with legacy (4.4) kernel, I have found that image with current 5.9 kernel does not have any stability issue with my Scishion V88 Mars device. I´m happy with that, even though performance is much worse.

My fault, I jumped "Jump start".

Booting from sdcard does not work with Armbian images. I erased flash with bootable multitool.img and after that with etcher flashed focal legacy image but it does not boot. Librelec image boots. I also tried buster legacy image, but it was also not successful.

I have issue with using v88 mars android box with Armbian Focal xfce kernel 4.4.194 (legacy). Installation to nand with multitool every time progress and finish without problem. Also rk322x-config and armbian-config progress without problem. But when I start apt-get upgrade after successful apt-get update system crashes from X to terminal with many kernel messages (see image). Power adapter is original 5V 2A. I reinstalled system few times and it was always without problem. sudo rk322x-config successful and can be seen on images. As this box does not have fan I installed usb powered small fan and cpu never goes over 55 °C, when there was no fan CPU was over 80 °C. I also experienced freeze in X when starting Firefox.

I hoped maybe this problem is fixable through settings editing or something similar. Also I have no programming skills, so much about diving into the code, but I will look about it around. Inače, prije dan dva sam shvatio da je armbian susjedski, slovenski projekt iako ga koristim na Orange Pi pločama već duže vrijeme. Hvala Vama i cijeloj ekipi. Pozdrav iz Hrvatske.

Here is uploaded image showing problem with text overlapping. I googled without success, so if anyone could suggest how to try fixing it. Chromium version is 76.0.3809.100 (Official Build) Built on Ubuntu, running on Ubuntu 16.04 (32-bit) on Orange Pi Lite. It is not big deal, but if there is easy fix why not to try.

Is there way to configure sound over hdmi? Display is working ok (configuration for 1366x768 and 1920x1080 was made manually), but there is no sound.
