thanks for helping sorry @Igor my post should not sound like frustration or any other bad thing!! I really appreciate the work and for sure many many hours everybody puts into this project!! I just wondered why things stop working after an upgrade which looks "easy" for a noob like me and try to find out if this is something I made wrong or if others also run into the same thing Here some more details about my setup, sorry to miss this initially Banana-Pi M1 (yes, the old one with native SATA ) Here the actual version which is running fine for me. root@gluster03:~# uname -a Linux gluster03 6.6.75-current-sunxi #1 SMP Sat Feb 1 17:37:57 UTC 2025 armv7l GNU/Linux Then I have started an update as there are two packages which are outdated root@gluster03:~# apt update Hit:1 http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye InRelease Hit:2 http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye-updates InRelease Hit:3 http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye-backports InRelease Hit:5 https://github.armbian.com/configng stable InRelease Hit:4 http://netcup.armbian.com/apt bullseye InRelease Reading package lists...

When I check the SD Card everything is fine and there are no errors .. all files seems fine ... but this is where boot ends from now on. What I am wondering is that the fsck works for exactly the device (mmcblk0p1) which was reported as not available in the next step. If there are other things needed please give me a little hint .. I am not a developer so those things are new to me as it just worked like a charm for at least 10 years until yesterday

Hi Igor; thanks for your fast answer and sorry for the wrong section!! Not sure if I got this right ... do you mean that my banana-pi isnt supported or the trunk I use is not supported? ... I checked this and dont see any repo like untested or nightly build. Its configured to just use main and stable as I see.

Hi there, after upgrade Armbian today the Device (banana-pi) doesnt come up again telling that the root fs couldnt be mount because mmcblk0p1 is not available. After checking SD Card everything seems ok, filesystem is there and doesnt have any error. But still no boot. Then after applying a backup things are fine again. Started the upgrade again and same error like before. When applying those two updates there is repeatedly a dead system afterwards. Tested on different devices now. root@gluster01:~# apt list --upgradable Listing...

Thanks!! best regards, Heiko

Since I upgraded to Armbian 23.8.1 (Kernel 6.6.31) I cant copy larger files from a CIFS share to a local attached sata disk on my banana-pi. Copy starts and gets stuck at around 4GB of transferred data ... its independant if I use rsync, cp or mv to transfer files. What I can see in the logs directly after the transfer gets stuck: root@nas03:~# dmesg [ 1280.477240] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 1280.477276] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 4182 at
