I've installed the latest Armbian Bookworm Cinnamon desktop image to the EMMC of the Banana Pi M5, but it does not display anything on the HDMI output after startup.
Here's what happens when I start the system:
- Starts loading the kernel (I can see the startup messages)
- Shows the "Armbian" loading screen (with the spinning icon)
- Switches back to the startup messages for a bit
- Shows a black screen with a single "_" in the top left corner
- After a few seconds my screen says that there is "No Signal"
The Banana Pi still seems to be running, I can see the lights.
Any idea what happens and how to fix it?
FYI, this is how I installed it:
- Flashed SD card with latest minimal armbian image
- Boot from SD card
- Mount USB with latest Armbian Bookworm Cinnamon desktop image on it
- Install bpi-tools and copy new image to EMMC
- Shutdown, remove SD card, and restart
