I am sorry for posting in this older thread, but it is actually the first relevant google search result.
I am trying to create an flashable image for my A64-LTS board with LCD/DSI support. more to it here. The script always fails with the Image build error : Unable to locate package armbian-firmware error.
My setup is:
current Virtualbox with Ubuntu 18.04. minimal image
tweaked build script from https://github.com/GavinBa/build.git containing all the necessary fixes for working LCD and touch
What I do:
./compile.sh LIB_TAG=v9-a64-dsi
I select following options: Full OS image for flashing, Don't change the kernel configuration, Target board: pine64so, Kernel next (Mainline), Target OS: stretch Debian 9, Image with console interface
I already tried ./compile.sh LIB_TAG=v9-a64-dsi EXTERNAL=no but that didn't help either. I am really stuck now, could someone help me with this ?
