The UP 4000 is a credit-card / Raspberry Pi-sized single board computer based on an Intel Apollo Lake processor. AAEON sent me the model with an Intel Atom x7-E3950 quad-core processor, 4GB RAM, and a 64GB eMMC flash, and in the first part of the review, I installed Ubuntu 22.04 since the board would initially only boot to the UEFI shell out of the box. I’ve now spent more time with the board, and in this article, I will report my experience with the UP 4000 SBC running Ubuntu 22.04 checking out features, performance, video playback, power consumption, and so on. Ubuntu 22.04 System info Let’s check out some information after I’ve upgraded the system to the latest packages: [crayon-634e2b0112936361662365/] Everything looks good with an Intel Atom E3950 processor detection together with 3.68GB RAM and a 56.53GB rootfs EXT-4 partition.

Proposal to create a Community Supported config for Amlogic based TV Boxes to pickup the work that was done previously by balbes150 but is no longer supported by him. This also provides a place where development can occur within the Armbian framework since others on the internet are producing builds called Armbian that are not done from within the Armbian community. The strategy for Amlogic based TV Boxes has been to reuse the native u-boot that comes installed on the box on emmc. Through a process called 'multiboot enabling' a u-boot script is run to change the default u-boot environment to have the boot process look for a chain-loaded u-boot on either the sd card or usb. If found that 'u-boot.ext' file is loaded and the boot process continues on the armbian image on sd or usb via configs in the extlinux.conf file. So currently the armbian build process creates and installs a u-boot in the image, but that isn't actually used (as the boxes emmc u-boot is what is used). The 'chain-loaded' u-boots (u-boot-* , different ones for different cpus) are currently pre-built and included as binary blobs. The installation instructions currently exist in the forums.armbian.com TV Box forum and are the same as for the balbes150 builds that previously existed. (basically the user is requested to copy the appropriate u-boot-* binary to u-boot.ext for their boxes cpu and edit the extlinux.conf file with the appropriate dtb file for their box). Things seem to work about as well as they did with balbes 5.9 kernel based builds, although I generally focus testing on server builds and don't do too much with desktop builds, There is one issue that needs some sort of resolution however. On the s905x2 box I have (H96 Max X2) the armbian build kernel (meson64) can't read the sd card. However an unpatched mainline kernel works on this box. I have tracked down the offending patch to be: general-meson-gx-mmc-set-core-clock-phase-to-270-degres.patch Without this patch the box boots fine, with it it fails to boot. I'm not sure how to work around that. All comments are welcome. I essentially cloned the lepotato config. I choose aml-s9xx-box for the name, as that kind of follows jock's naming convention for rk based tv boxes, but am open to any suggestions.

Description Although the u-boot of rock5b supports ext4, when using ext4 as a whole root partition, sometimes it will take a long time for u-boot to load kernel image, which will cause pd negotiation timeout. So a single /boot partition is still needed.

Translation of Jetson Nano to use a startup with efi\grub (this model does not require an installation procedure on eMMC, so it can be immediately transferred to this startup option). A separate grub-arm extension allows not to break the current state of the grub extension.sh and will allow to smoothly switch to a two-level scheme in the future. All common data for x86 and arm are placed in the upper level (in a common file extension grub.sh ), and specific additions are distributed at the third level (files grub-x86.sh and grub-arm.sh ).
