I have created a small patch and pull request to package the linux-libc-dev headers in the Armbian build process. https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/6408 I'am open to work on suggestions if you notice anything.

Hi, I recently noticed that after updating to 24.02 the package "linux-libc-dev" did not receive a update. I have checked the current armbian archives and couldn't find anything for any arch. Just to be sure i've also built armbian 24.5 images for bananapi (noticed this on a bananapi board) and rpi4b (as a well supported board) and no linux-libc-dev[...].deb was built. It seems that with the buildsystem change the files packages/armbian/mkdebian and packages/armbian/builddeb were retired (commit e98c66b, v23.11.1) which previously handled building the kernel packages and included linux-libc-dev. Unfortunately linux-libc-dev is a dependency for libc6-dev and in turn also linux-headers... To build such a package i think one would have to add the function to lib/functions/compilation/kernel-debs.sh, similar to the way linux-dtb is built and add it to artifact_map_packages in lib/functions/artifacts/artifact-kernel.sh to be built in the process. Does anyone agree with this observation? I'm not sure as I am pretty new to the armbian build system... Is anyone aware of this and working on it? Thanks, valium

try setting the switches to 11 (UART) or 00 (Flash). The boot mode selctor tells the board which bootloader should be used. armbian images don't contain the bootloader (u-boot) on the sd card so this setting won't work. if you still run into issues try booting the sdcard.img provided by the manufacturer and update the bootloader per their description.

I'd suggest renaming this topic to clarify armbian boots from an microSD but not with the dip-switches set to sd as this makes a big difference...

the boot dip switches select where u-boot is loaded from afaik. to boot from sd the image would have to contain two extra partitions with u-boot and the firmware like the sdcard.img from starfive https://github.com/starfive-tech/VisionFive2/releases
