Hi slinde, I'm almost sure that it does not boot (i.e. it's not a video output problem). I'll check the networking once more and will write you back. It lits the blue status/power LED after the successful boot. This LED is purple after the second boot, it does not turn blue. Unfortunately, there is no output on the screen making it a bit harder to find the cause of this failure. I guess I could start diagnosing the problem by comparing all contents of the modified SD card with the fresh initial image/SD: I'll have to create a list of all changed files/directories and then attempt to restore half of them to the original versions. Then restore half of that half and so on until I pinpoint that file or directory that causes this problem. That would take some time....

It boots with a freshly dd-ed image, seems to be resizing the fs, but next boot always failes: only violet (blue+red) LED, and nothing on the screen. Not sure what does it damage during the initial boot. I've checked the loader at 0x4000 on my SD card, seems to be present, so it should not be the case. Also, I've tried to resize the partition on another system before the initial boot and to disable the resize2fs script. Result is the same: initial boot is successful, than I have to dd Armbian image to the SD card to make it boot once more. I think I'll try to disable few more scripts from /etc/init.d in attempt to find out what damages the installation during the initial boot.
