dev-null

I don't have a device for that. Which one would you recommend getting? I might try it out later when I get time (not soon so if anyone else is able to post logs?)

@Werner Which logs would be usefull? I have a full image from the broken state. Kern.log is empty (0 bytes) syslog only has log from the last shutdown and ends there dmesg is from last startup before the system broke

Just a warning for everyone, the new kernel update (6.18.xx I think?) absolutely wrecks the system (atleast it does on Ubuntu Noble). It doesn't boot at all anymore I needed to recover an old kernel from an old backup I had and overwrite the current kernel from rescue mode/petitboot. Kernel 6.12.xx seems to work fine(ish) Just a heads up because I don't know enough to pinpoint the exact cause. p.s. for me the kernel means the files in /boot not sure if I used proper terminology

Latest kernel upgrade broke the odroid again, executing the command by @jbergler (with manually changed kernel version) fixed it again.

I upgraded the kernel today via apt-get update/upgrade and it seems kernel for armbian 23.08 is being pushed to users with 23.02 breaking a bunch of stuff. After upgrading the kernel ethernet stops working and requires the user to manually downgrade kernel, uboot (and dtb?). I am currently on "current" kernel (6.1.11-meson64) I'm thinking of downgrading to legacy (5.xx) via armbian-config, does anyone know if this is safe?

Hello everyone, Upgrading from distro isn't supported officially but I tried it anyways and thought I should share my findings. In short, it worked for me. Others have reported issues so maybe we can figure out what causes these issues. My N2+ is fairly vanilla, so I didn't heavily modify it. Running 5.10.x kernel since that is recommended for de N2+ Step 1. Fully upgrade your system on Focal sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Step 2. Shutdown you N2+ and make an image backup of your emmc using dd or Win32DiskImager in case something goes wrong Step 3. Boot up your N2+ again, disable all 3rd-party applications and PPA and change the release your sources list. sudo sed -i s/deb/#deb/ /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list sudo sed -i s/focal/jammy/ /etc/apt/sources.list Step 4. Update sources sudo apt-get update Step 5. This is were the tricky part starts, upgrading packages. Apt will ask to automatically restart services, allow this. Apt will also ask to replace configuration files, personally I kept all my configurations after manually checking them. sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Step 6. Reboot the device And if everything works fine Step 7. Re-enable 3rd party applications and PPA and change the release sudo sed -i s/#deb/deb/ /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list sudo sed -i s/focal/jammy/ /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Step 8. Do a last reboot and done, you should be on Jammy. Remember manually upgrading like this is not officially supported by armbian!
