Pistar is convenient for hammers but too bad it only support select few arm sbc . I looked into the official site and found no clue of compiling custom image. Any enthusiast porting this thing to more sbc eg s905 ?

Finally I boot Armbian20.10 successfully ,it turns out that the bootloader in the stock firmware is too old to boot later Armbian releases . All frustration suddenly disappeared after I flashed a custom Android ROM(it has uboot inside) and Armbian20.10 boots without any isssue . Currently I'm seeking to compile RTL8189ETV driver so I could use WIFI. Topic closed and thanks for your help.

What you are currently running is a vendor kernel - i.e. a heavily patched kernel that isn't maintained. The builds you are trying to use are mainline kernel based. Because of lack of vendor support, the mainline kernels while maintained and supported are often missing functionality that existed in the vendor kernels. Add to that the vendor kernels were written to run android not general purpose linux. The last comment I would make is that because the mainline kernels are distinct from the vendor kernels, the dtbs are not compatible across them as a lot has changed between 3.14 kernel days and 5.10 kernel days.
As for latest releases like Armbian_20.10_Arm-64_focal_current_5.9.0.img , it simply does not boot at all and either boot into Andriod or Recovery .
Hopefully (not really) any suggestions ?

Spec:
ro.product.model=R3300-M
ro.product.brand=BesTVSOC:S905M-B
WIFI:RT8189ETV
EMMC:4GB
RAM:1GB
2 USB（1 microusb port） and 1 TF card slot.
Currently I'm running almost every thing is fine except that docker failed to run properly due to the old kernel version. I tried Armbian_20.10_Arm-64_bionic_current_5.9.0.img from https://users.armbian.com/balbes150/arm-64/ with meson-gxbb-p200.dtb and meson-gxbb-p201.dtb but failed to boot (no error message,just boot into recovery or android system),and I'm curious about the absent of gxbb_p200_1G_100M_RealtekWiFi.dtb (and a lot of other dtb files!) . u-boot-s905 has been renamed to u-boot.ext and proper modification has been made to extlinux.conf. What should I supposed to do next ?
I extract dtb file from box and converted to dts file so I just paste it here:
S905 failed to boot from emmc

I'm curious about the detailed procedure as well. I have some GXBB S905 P201 TV boxes with 1GB ram and 4GB EMMC. Currently I'm running Manjaro ARM Minimal from TF card and my Rocket.chat server works great on it
Things would be even better if we could fit everything into emmc without TF card .
