Still pay attention on how things behave, since all the rk3588 code in 6.x is new. I for example still experience some strange behaviour on the OPi5+ with latest edge kernels, where irq / rtc-hym8563 process uses constantly around 10% cpu. I have not tried to look into it yet, but it is for sure not normal that IRQs are used nonstop like crazy.

I took my OPi5+ apart and inserted the M.2 to SATA to see how it goes with the edge 6.7 image. Works just fine. See below. I did not do anything special, since PCIe3 support is there. It should work with the 5.10 kernel too. If it does not get recognized for you, maybe the adapter is dead. Try it in another system.

I have no idea what this rk3588-sata2 overlay is supposed to do. But I don't think you need it. For you adapter, I guess you have one of this M.2 to sata adapters like this? https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0B6RQHY4F I am pretty sure I tried to use this adapter directly some time ago and it was visible too. But that was the classic Orange Pi 5. In lspci, you should see something like this. 05:00.0 SATA controller: ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1166 Serial ATA Controller (rev 02) Try to load the edge kernel 6.7 image. That one has received a lot of hardware support for the rk3588. All what it needs is the ahci driver. I do something similar on my OPi5+. I have a M.2 to PCIe riser card. In there is a pcie switch card with a ASM2812 chip. This card has 2 M.2 slots. In there are M.2 to SATA3 adapters with an ASM1166 chip (each 6 ports).

If you used the 6.7.0-rc7 image, then check what overlay and dt file you have configured. This image defaults to the dt file for the original non-plus version. Check and adjust in /boot/armbianEnv.txt the following 2 lines. overlay_prefix=rockchip-rk3588 fdtfile=rockchip/rk3588-orangepi-5-plus.dtb

@Endian, yes bootsize=512 creates a bigger boot partition. The old default is to small when you run an upgrade. It typically runs out of disk space when you do kernel upgrades. Thats why I made it bigger on my test builds.

Without knowing what you did exactly, the following creates a bootable image. ./compile.sh BOARD=rock-5b BRANCH=collabora RELEASE=bookworm KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no BUILD_MINIMAL=no BUILD_DESKTOP=no COMPRESS_OUTPUTIMAGE=img BOOTSIZE=512 You may also need to clear whatever is in your SPI flash.

Getting a ethernet cable is the easiest thing for the initial setup. Otherwise you can use a serial connection and do the first boot setup via serial. Armbian images are not like the Raspian images, where you have a fat partition, that you can easily mount and store some files on it. You could of course do some hacky stuff like mounting the boot or root partition from the img file and pre-configure some stuff, if you know what to do. It will definitely not as easy as just creating an empty file.

I love the Collabora kernel. Finally PCIe 3.0 support. Have a PCIe card connected via a M.2 to PCIe riser adapter. 😎 marco@loop ~> ssh -l pi 192.168.2.212 ____ _ ____ ____ | _ \ ___ ___| | __ | ___|| __ ) | |_) / _ \ / __| |/ / |___ \| _ \ | _ < (_) | (__| < ___) | |_) | |_| \_\___/ \___|_|\_\ |____/|____/ Welcome to Armbian 23.08.0-trunk Bookworm with Linux 6.5.0-rc1-rockchip-rk3588 No end-user support: built from trunk System load: 1% Up time: 8 min Memory usage: 2% of 7.76G IP: 192.168.2.212 Usage of /: 9% of 29G RX today: 12.4 MiB root@rock-5b ~# neofetch root@rock-5b ------------ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ OS: Armbian (23.08.0-trunk) aarch64 ███████████████████████ Host: Radxa ROCK 5 Model B ▄▄██ ██▄▄ Kernel: 6.5.0-rc1-rockchip-rk3588 ▄▄██ ███████████ ██▄▄ Uptime: 1 min ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ Packages: 538 (dpkg) ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ Shell: fish 3.6.0 ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ Terminal: /dev/pts/0 ▄▄██ █████████████ ██▄▄ CPU: (8) ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ Memory: 178MiB / 7944MiB ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ ▄▄██ ██▄▄ ███████████████████████ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ root@rock-5b ~# lspci 0000:00:00.0 PCI bridge: Rockchip Electronics Co., Ltd RK3588 (rev 01) 0000:01:00.0 PCI bridge: ASMedia Technology Inc.

Looks like you use an image from balbes150. You may want to ask in this thread here, which is about his images. But before asking, read the important comments a few times.

Rene, with an installation of the official image like Bullseye with the 5.10 kernel, it should work. Maybe you did some modifications? If so, try it with a fresh installation. Without any changes I can see "ttyS6". After enabling all uart in armbian-config, I can see more after a reboot. root@rock-5b ~# ls -la /dev/ttyS* crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 66 May 24 08:55 /dev/ttyS2 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 4, 67 May 24 08:55 /dev/ttyS3 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 4, 68 May 24 08:55 /dev/ttyS4 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 4, 70 May 24 08:55 /dev/ttyS6 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 4, 71 May 24 08:55 /dev/ttyS7 In the images from balbes150, with some 6.x kernel, I think you can see more ttyS by default.

Same or similar was asked here. You will probably not get a good answer. Be prepared for some harsh words. 😉 My experience from the past is, that this images work sometimes and sometimes not. Even if words like "stable" are mentioned in the rolling release section, don't count on it. I have seen this error in the past as well, when I tried for fun one of the nightly images, but my troubleshooting did not get my anywhere. Only thing I remember is that the UUID that was mentioned was at least correct in terms that it was in the fstab and armbianEnv.txt. It might have something to do with the SPI and what is in there. Maybe also not, who knows.

Could not resolve 'ports.ubuntu.com' Looks like a DNS problem. Maybe only something temporary in your network?

@Kenneth Ekman, how did you build the image? If you build like this as an example, does it work? Not sure if this pulls in all the latest and greatest packages. ./compile.sh BOARD=rock-5b BRANCH=midstream RELEASE=lunar COMPRESS_OUTPUTIMAGE=img KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no BUILD_MINIMAL=no BUILD_DESKTOP=no

Nice work! 👏 My M.2 SATA controller is also recognized. 😍 root@baldeagle ~# neofetch root@baldeagle ---------------------------- █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ OS: Armbian (20230310b-rpardini) aarch64 ███████████████████████ Host: Radxa ROCK 5 Model B ▄▄██ ██▄▄ Kernel: 6.2.0-rc1-rockchip-rk3588 ▄▄██ ███████████ ██▄▄ Uptime: 1 min ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ Packages: 638 (dpkg) ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ Shell: fish 3.5.1 ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ Terminal: /dev/ttyS2 ▄▄██ █████████████ ██▄▄ CPU: (8) @ 1.800GHz ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ Memory: 151MiB / 7693MiB ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ ▄▄██ ██ ██ ██▄▄ ▄▄██ ██▄▄ ███████████████████████ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ root@baldeagle ~# lspci 0000:00:00.0 PCI bridge: Rockchip Electronics Co., Ltd Device 3588 (rev 01) 0000:01:00.0 SATA controller: JMicron Technology Corp.

For Odroid yes. I have it as well running fine on a HC4. But this thread is about Rock 5 and I see problems on the Rock5 (rk3588). Thats why I wanted to check if there is a list of known issues or limitations, before going to deep into the weeds.

Is there a list with limitations even there are now supported images available for the Rock 5? ZFS from the Armbian repo is not working on the Jammy images.

Confirmed. Issue still present in 23.02 release. root@sperber ~ [100]# cat /var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.1.6/build/build/build.log make: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-5.10.110-rockchip-rk3588' arch/arm64/Makefile:44: Detected assembler with broken .inst; disassembly will be unreliable /usr/bin/env: 'python2': No such file or directory MODPOST /var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.1.6/build/build/Module.symvers /bin/sh: 1: scripts/mod/modpost: not found make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:169: /var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.1.6/build/build/Module.symvers] Error 127 make[1]: Target '__modpost' not remade because of errors. make: *** [Makefile:1822: modules] Error 2 make: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-5.10.110-rockchip-rk3588'

Maybe it also depends on the features or tools you want to use. I want to build a ZFS NAS and Armbian has newer ZFS packages for Jammy. But it does not work on the Orange Pi 5 yet. Hope sooner than later the OPi5 is fully supported and ZFS works.
