thanks a lot ! @hotnikq
Very important infomation for me, I will try your method later
 
is your 4G/32G box only using the emmc without sd card?

I bought the new one 😁, 8G 64

@hotnikq
I have downloaded the firmware root.img and update.img
When I use RkDevTool v2.86 to select the Firmware update.img follow step1, there is a error "Loading firmware failed!" at the RkDevTool 
Is the reason for the error due to the fact that the firmware is not FIT firmware?  
How can I flash the two firmware, THX!
 
 

@hotnikq How to mount the emmc boot partition?

This FIT image needs to be flashed on the internal storage, this board don't have SD CARD Reader.
Just Press the RESET Button when connect male-male USB 2.0 (BLACK) to Desktop
MAKE Backup Rockchip Firmware emmc
Install Drivers, Driver Assistant Download
RkDevTool Download
Upgrade Rockchip Firmware eemc
Maskrom mode
Loader mode

when the Board Boot UP you will need to conect RJ45 LAN, Find the IP Addres on your PiHole, Firewall or  Lan Router
and SSH to the ubuntu.
 


First BOOT COMANDS:

🏆 help to add this board in armbian standart, you don't need to be a programmer to help the community,
just need a copy of the V56 board and a x86 computer to compile new versions.

Base Parameters to build:
H96-MAX-Uboot-legacy.img
Partition-Parameter.txt
H96-MAX-8gb-MiniLoaderAll.bin
H96-MAX-4gb-MiniLoaderAll.bin
DTB + DTS + rockchip_defconfig

SDK Used into this Build:
SDK 4.19.219 LINUX to RK3566 H96 MAX

Please, Use a debug Tool TTL UART
Baud rate: 1500000
Data bit: 8
Stop bit: 1
Parity check: none
Flow control: none
☑️ CP2104 TTL Tested!
☑️ CP2102 TTL Tested!
☑️ CP210X TTL Tested!



Rockchip boards are unbrikable
in a worse case  you need to short the EMMC CLK pin to GND on the other side of the board 
and upload the righ LoaderALL.bin File from a linux machine that you backup.
to connect the RK3566 on Desktop USB Maskrom Mode.

Let's debug it!

Good job!!!  Does this box have to be equipped with an SD card Slot to boot linux? THX
