I'm trying the same thing since Debian 12 IoT version for the orangepi3b (which works better with Wayland). I'm of the idea if you want to share your installation method you create a script that automates the configurations. I myself have many questions since I think that from Ubuntu Noble with Gnome it is easier since it already has Mesa driver installed.

@062621AM Hello, I have been an Ob3pi user for a few months. The problem that I have seen is that there are 3 types of models v1, v1.1.1, v2.1, it is in the latter where the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chip changes and also the size of the NVME (2280). For these changes to work correctly in the official distribution, they add a dts (orangepi3b-v2.1.dts). The latter is not integrated into any old distribution, since the manufacturer just distributed this board a few months ago. If you use the hardware as a server, you may not notice errors in the GPU, VPU, BLUETOOH or WIFI. Until the moment I write this comment, the only distro that I have been able to use is the Ubuntu - Rockchip project. But even this has problems with the hardware already mentioned.

I think you downloaded an image with kernel 6.1.75 (Armbian_community_24.8.0-trunk.495_Orangepi3b_noble_vendor_6.1.75_gnome_desktop.img.xz) and Igor's indication was to download an image with kernel 6.10 edge (Armbian_community_24.8.0-trunk.495_Orangepi3b_noble_edge_6.10.2_gnome_desktop.img.xz). You could try that option and tell us how it went. I also have orangepi3b v2.1. Thanks
