How did you flash them?

I just needed to insert the sd card and power the device. Where did you see the button? 🙈

Does it show a heartbeat on the front LEDs? If not,try flashing the SD,again. First I wrote the image as downloaded on SD card (raw mode). That didn't work nor did Etcher give me a negative feedback.Using the windows tool Mini Tool@Partition Wizard you can see if there are several volumes on the sd card.If not,you're doing it wrong. Never had any issues with Allwinner,Broadcom,Rockchip... Also I noticed I have to connect the WAN port and not LAN. Else you won't get proper access via DHCP. Which image did you use? On the Nanopi R5C wiki there's a downloadlink to a gdrive.

What a pity....didn't work wget -O - https://github.com/OpenMediaVault-Plugin-Developers/installScript/raw/master/install | sudo bash results in: This system is running a desktop environment! Please use a Lite version of the image or do not choose to install a desktop environment. This install is not supported. Search the forum for more info - https://forum.openmediavault.org Exiting... Why aren'T you using OMV anymore?

Hi, just got a Nanopi R5C (waiting for an RPi for more than a year, yet...) but I couldn't find any headless images for this little box. There's an official debian-image available running LDXE, but open media vault isn't able to run on an Desktop linux... Any chances there will be support for the Nano Pi R5C / Rockchip RK3568B2? btw: can't choose R5C or just 'others' from the drop-down when creating a new post...
