  1. as root in the virtual machine

     

    do-release-upgrade

     

    and a reboot fixed everything. Is this supported? It appears to have taken care of my issue here. It would make sense if repositories had changed.

     

    There were many failed downloads and 502 errors during the previous attempts. I started from scratch this morning and it posted a note to upgrade. So I did and wow it ran first time! I've got two builds successful now with the same config selections as were failing before.

     

    Sorry for the noise but it had me stumped.

     

     

  2. I repurposed my old build system hardware and am trying to build a new one. Nice faster box ;]

     

    On this new linux host I create a virtualbox machine and install Hirsute from the link in the documentation. I do an apt update / upgrade. I install git and clone the build directory according to the documentation.

     

    Everything seems to go well until it gets through a lot of the .o files and gives

    [error] ERROR in function compile_kernel [ main.sh:574 -> main.sh:479 -> compilation..sh:506 -> general.sh:0 ]

    the line above is always the same, although it comes after different .o files for different boards.

     

    I've rebuilt the virtual machine several times and the error is consistent. I've selected several different boards. Wether I give root a password or use sudo same result. I've got this to work fine in the past and have compiled a lot of images. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong this time.

     

    Where should I look to try to figure out what I need to change?

     

  3. Back in the day we would take a Rubidium source like an SA.22c (can be found on ebay ~$100 - $150) and make a GPS Disciplined Oscillator. The rubidium was accurate for the short period (hours) and the GPS held it really accurate for long time (years).

    can't find the project we used, but this one makes the point -

    Sounds like fun!

  4. Looks like its available from youyeetoo -

    They have it on Amazon as well.

    PRICEY but it's there!

     

    Has anyone from Armbian got a sample of this? Is Armbian going there?

    I ordered on off Amazon, will be here in a couple weeks. Perhaps EU gets it faster? Perhaps there are other sellers, I could only find this one. Actually I found it by accident on Amazon and went looking. I'm sure I didn't do an exhaustive search.

     

     

  5. fresh download just now of minimal image.

    debconf is present.

    still no armbian-config until

    apt install armbian-config

     

    during install

    not found 151.101.6.132

    failed to fetch http://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/u/unzip/unzip_6.0-23+deb10u1_armhf.deb 404 not found 151.101.6.132

     

    couldn't get a wired or wireless connection to do armbianmonitor -u

     

    second time pretty much the same

     

    downloaded again and burned image

    debconf is present

    no armbian config

    nmtui to set network

    apt install armbian-config

    not found 151.101.6.132

    armbian-config install fails

    sudo apt update

    sudo apt upgrade

    N: InRelease changed version from 10.7 to 10.8

     

    still no armbian-config

    apt install armbian-config  works

    armbianmonitor -u states there is a network problem

    armbian-config runs and is able to forget and then activate again wifi

    can ping yahoo.com but armbianmonitor -u reports network error

     

    @Wernerplease educate me on how to properly test your fix. I am coming up fast but haven't done that yet... but I do have a build system running.

     

     

     

  6. Armbianmonitor:

    On a fresh Buster Minimal install, what is required to get armbian-config fully functional?

     

    apt install armbian-config 'works' but some functions don't, for instance it fails setting the locale as dpkg-reconfigure errors as 

    usr/lib/armbian-config/jobs.sh line 839 dpkg-reconfigure : command not found

     

    EDIT:

    In armbian-config I selected 'full firmware package' and rebooted, time zone settings now work.

    Was odd that the welcome page said run armbian-config (beta) but it had to be installed manually via apt.

  7. I didn't just ditch Windows, but x86 altogether several years ago. That's what originally brought me to armbian - sbc and linux totally replaced intel / amd and ms.

     

    The ONLY reason I have a modern x86 box today is to build armbian. And I'm still fairly incompetent at that, although now I can compile an image with a few changes and it actually boots ... (I was for many years a windows x86 tech ... mastered win3.11 and nt server) I'll tech myself armbian-config yet, probably right about when you decide to change how it works lol. But I digress.

     

    While I also agree ms is a way different co than decades ago, they're still a profit company and will do what they need at any cost to stay what they consider on top.

     

    All that being said, it's still cool to see how much stuff is being ported to arm.

  8. Maybe consider amending this to allow with some restrictions. Or define better as a 'hobby' business can appear commercial. 

     

    The forum appears to be directed at hardware, but there may be potential for service. I for one am hitting a brick wall with coding some audio control hw and would like to hire someone to help. This seems like a place that might work for that.

     

     

  9. Good job placing an intermediate level between 5 and 50 Euros - 20 is wonderful.

     

    I originally signed up for the 5 Euro auto pay. The 5 Euro auto pay works fine, then I get an invoice for the 15 balance ... humorous but tedious. I know you guys are working on such things so I thought I would report, hope this is the appropriate place to do so.  But I get these emails saying I've paid but Igor hasn't picked it up yet. I gave it to ya, use it ;]

     

    So it looks like you still have something to adjust, it would be nice to just have the 20 come out of my account automagicly in one charge.

     

    With other systems where I have like issues I usually cancel all of them then resubscribe with the correct one. Would this be the course or is there a better way...

     

    Thanks and keep it up!!
