  1. Thank you Werner. I'm not into Armbian enough to understand how the hardware is supported across all the kernel versions. The best I can do is to test different versions until I find the mininum support for the things I want to do. Till now, kernel 6.1.99-vendor-rk35xx works more or less, but SATA HDDs are not always detected at boot. OS is installed on a NMVE pcie drive, while the main storage is given by 2 4TB drives in RAID1. HDMI output doesn't work for me when kernel 6.12 is used (I have rock 5 ITX - Board version 1.12). Kernel 15-rc solves the SATA support, but audio doesn't work. I went throught many webpages to check if I can solve some issues here and there, but my limited knowledge doesn't allow me to really understand what's going on and the interactions between elements of the system. I have to rely on the hard work of the developers community, waiting for better support in the future, if any.
  2. [Solved] Moved to kernel 6.1.99-vendor-rk35xx Everything is detected correctly.
  3. Hello, I'm quite new to SBC and linux. On one hand I'm learning a lot, but on the other hand I'm struggling to make it work as I would like. I already have a low performance Zimaboard (just 2GB Ram) that I use as a NAS and I want the ROCK 5 ITX 8GB to be used as a general purpose apps server for home automation, streaming music, listening music, etc. One of my use case I'm playing with is the following: 1) music files are on the NAS 2) Music files are played from the Rock5 ITx via the speakers plugged into the headphone jack, 3) The music player is controlled remotely using Lyrion Music Server + Squeezelite. I've already tested the above using the official rock-5-itx_bookworm_kde_b3.output.img.xz image and it works: no rocket science . Unfortunately the vendor official image is not very stable: the docker containers crash randomly and even if the SATA drives are detected and mounted at boot time, the got disconnected randomly after some hours. That's why I decided to go experimental and now I'm playing with the following setup and 6 containers running: OS: Armbian-unofficial 25.05.0-trunk bookworm aarch64 ?******************; Host: Radxa ROCK 5 ITX '*n` .'`^,;;,^`'. ,cc.

Alsamixer works: Hereunder other outputs, but I'm not expert enough to understand what's going on and why audio is not played by the speakers plugged to the board. No sound with "speaker-test" and "/etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf" doesn't exsist. HDMI audio is not detected, but I can live without for the moment. cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [rk3588es8316 ]: rk3588-es8316 - rk3588-es8316 rk3588-es8316 sudo dmesg | grep 'snd\|audio\|firmware' [ 0.000000] psci: PSCIv1.1 detected in firmware.

  4. Ok, that way 😁 I've an old USB-to-serial debug device. This article states that the Rock 5 ITX works at 1,500,000 bps and my iron doesn't reach that speed. I gave it a try and indeed nothing on the screen because the max baud rate is lower than the needed one.
  5. I'm not an expert, the logs from Cockpit probably helped me. I found this (Rock 5 ITX Version 1.12): I'm testing 6.14 rc4 right now: everything seems to work.
  6. Unfortunately 6.12 doesn't work for me: whatever flavour I use (official, unofficial current, edge), it boots but stay black, no HDMI output to the monitor. 6.1.99 works, but SATA HDDs are not detected. I had to use a workaround: start with 6.1.99, do the first setup, configure SSH, change the kernel with armbian-config and reboot. The monitor goes black but I can control the system remotely and SATA HDDs are detected. Still investiganting why the HDMI ouput doesn't work with 6.12 (maybe power supply: I've an external 75W power supply plugged directy to the motherboard).
  7. Just tried one of the latest images, but the HDD is not detected. To be more precise, it's detected randomly.
  8. I'm a beginner and I'm new to armbian and linux in general. I have a NVME + SATA HDD plugged on my Rock 5 ITX with the problem of the HDD not detected. I tried different sever images listed here &nbsp, but the HDD was not detected. The debian 12/kernel 6.1 based image from Radxa works, the HDD is detected, but it doesn't match my needs of a minimal server image. As a tentative, I built the following custom image based on Ubuntu Jammy and the SATA HDD is detected at every boot (sda 1TB). v25.5 rolling for Rock 5 ITX running Armbian Linux 6.12.19-current-rockchip64 Packages: Ubuntu stable (jammy), possible distro upgrade (noble) Last login: Sun Mar 16 18:46:48 2025 NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS sda 8:0 0 931,5G 0 disk └─sda1 8:1 0 931,5G 0 part mtdblock0 31:0 0 16M 0 disk zram0 253:0 0 3,9G 0 disk [SWAP] zram1 253:1 0 50M 0 disk /var/log zram2 253:2 0 0B 0 disk nvme0n1 259:0 0 238,5G 0 disk └─nvme0n1p1 259:1 0 236,1G 0 part /var/log.hdd / I cannot say if this image has other issues, but till now it's doing its job.
