I have a rockpro64 that i use as a NAS. It recently started to behave unexpectedly and after investigating the issue i realised that the RAM has defective block. after searching for a solution (because i'd like not to waste 80$ to get a new board and my BGA soldering skill are far from whats needed to change the RAM module) there seems to be one that is called badram. It basically tell the kernel not to use a set of known bad addresses. saddly this is not a standard package but a kernel patch made for debian and ubuntu that i have no idea how to install on ARMBIAN. I was wondering if it would be interesting and possible to add this option to armbian. the way i see it it would be a module in the armbian-config tools that check the RAM and if badblock are found the user is promoted if they can be added to a blacklist.

Actually, I spoke too fast : I redid everything on a clean system, and using your PPA was not enough. Here is the full list of commands that worked : ``` sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jonathonf/zfs sudo apt update git clone https://github.com/nathmo/makeZFS_armbian cd makeZFS_armbian sudo python3 makeZFS_armbian.py sudo apt install zfs-dkms zfs-zed zfsutils-linux ``` (the whole RockPro64 NAS setup is on github (i'm not allow to paste the link nor modify my previous post. Sorry about that) if of any use to someone : nathmo/makeZFS_armbian) I Had to fork from the original script to fix a broken tab and the python version that was deprecated. I also document the rest of the instruction to duplicate my setup

Thank you Jonathon. I'm running Armbian 22.08.2 Jammy with Linux 5.15.69-rockchip64 (RockPro64 as a NAS server so ARM64) and it worked for me. here is what i did : sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jonathonf/zfs sudo apt update sudo apt install zfs-dkms zfs-zed zfsutils-linux sudo zpool status i can't thank you enough.
