The system was running Android (unchanged) before. I understood I needed to do the toothpick method to boot from SD card, maybe I was mistaken. I understood from this thread that for the universal image, a u-boot file would need to be used, and above in this thread, it was suggested to someone else to use u-boot-odroid-n2 on an S905. Andrew. Update: It seems that the image does actually boot with odroid-n2 u-boot, but no HDMI out. Network is working. (And yes, no toothpick was necessary to boot from SD)

Attempting to use the unified image on H96 Max X2 (S905X2). Previously, I could run Armbian_19.11.3_Aml-g12_buster_legacy_5.3.0_20191126.img from SD using the meson-g12a-x96-max-rmii.dtb and the toothpick start method. Also install to eMMC was successful after editing DTB in extlinux.conf. Now attempting to use Armbian_19.11.5_Arm-64_buster_current_5.5.0-rc6_20200127.img from SD using the same named dtb and toothpick start method but without success. HDMI output is lost when boot process should start (unsure if it gets anywhere). EDIT: I tried both the u-boot-odroid-n2.img and u-boot-odroid-c2.img for patching without success. Any tips appreciated. Andrew.
