Hi everyone,
I'm experiencing a severe boot delay on my Banana Pi M5 running Server Armbian Image (v25.2.2 - Banana Pi M5 - Armbian Linux 6.12.21-current-meson64) when no HDMI monitor is connected. The board itself is working fine, but without an HDMI connection, the system takes several long minutes to complete the boot process.
Details
The system boots normally and quickly when an HDMI monitor is attached. However, without a monitor, in headless mode , the boot process is significantly delayed several minutes (approx. 4 minutes). Blue led blinking normaly.
I've Tried modified /boot/armbianEnv.txt by setting:
display_autodetect=false
disablehpd=true
hdmi_force_hotplug=1
Unfortunately, these changes did not resolve the boot delay issue.
Do you please have any suggestions or insights on how to modify the boot process to fix this problem?
Thank you in advance.
