I have a problem.
I try to boot "Armbian_5.67_Aml-s9xxx_Debian_stretch_default_4.19.7_20181228.img.xz" on a S905L 3B TV box, the ditb file use the default one (it works for S905L).
I use a TTL to USB device to check signal, and it started to login stage.
However, the LAN port and HDMI port seem not work, as I can' t use SSH to connect to Armbian and I can't see any thing on the screen.
So I guess maybe the dtb file is not suitable, and there may not be a suitable dtb for S905L3B.
Could I modfiy a dtb file based on the S905L dtb file and the dtb file from the Andriod system in the S905L 3B TV box?

OK, thank you!

I have a problem. “ddbr” can not make a backup of a andriod system in a Amlogic S905 TV box with a NAND flash, see this link for more details.
When I use 'ddbr' in an Ambian system booted by USB drive, it shows below:
root@SumavisionQ5:~# ddbr
DO YOU WANT TO BACKUP OR RESTORE ?
BACKUP=(b) RESTORE=(r) b
UNABLE TO FIND ANY EMMC OR SD DRIVES ON THIS SYSTEM!!!
I think someone else must have the same problem.
Can we make an improvement of 'ddbr' , so that it can be used for a NAND flash.

Hello, everyone!
I have an S905M device (Sumavision Q5, RAM:1G, ROM:8G), I made a bootable USB with an Armbian image( ARMBIAN 5.44 user-built Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS 3.14.29, use gxbb_p201.dtb file ) .
I want to use "ddbr" then “b” to make a backup of the EMMC. However,
root@SumavisionQ5:~# ddbr
DO YOU WANT TO BACKUP OR RESTORE ?
BACKUP=(b) RESTORE=(r) b
UNABLE TO FIND ANY EMMC OR SD DRIVES ON THIS SYSTEM!!!
then I use command "lsblk", I found all partitions(cache, params, ... , data) of the internal storage (8G ROM) for andriod system are treated as seperated disks as shown below:
root@SumavisionQ5:~# lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 1 14.9G 0 disk
|-sda1 8:1 1 128M 0 part /boot

zram2 253:2 0 100.9M 0 disk [SWAP]
zram3 253:3 0 100.9M 0 disk [SWAP]
use armbianmonitor -u, a detail info is uploaded in
From that, I find something the 8G ROM is in NAND instead of in EMMC :

How I can do it?
Could command “ddbr” make a backup of NAND flash？
OK!
As far as I know，command “ddbr” can not make a backup of a andriod system in NAND flash.

I also have a device (Tianyi, TY1208-Z, RAM:1G, ROM:8G) with S905L, and I have successfully made a backup file of EMMC. The EMMC is normally recognised as shown below:
root@aml:~# lsblk

Yes, you can make a bootable USB with an Armbian image . Use "ddbr" then “b” to make a backup of the internal EMMC. The backup file will be in /ddbr of the USB device.
Restore that image file with "ddbr" then "r" to another device with same hardwares.
How to adjust device tree to Armbian boot files？

I have a TV box with S905L3B (dtb file in android system is named gxlx2_p291_1g.dtb). However, I can't find a suitable dtb file for Armbian.
So I wonder if I or someone else can adjust or modify the dtb file to boot an Armbian system if I have the gxlx2_p291_1g.dtb and gxlx2_p291_1g.dts files from the Android system(4.4.2)?
