I'm running Armbian_20.09_Arm-64_focal_current_5.8.5_desktop on a Mini M8S, wifi works fine and connecte to internet. Now, I want to share the internet connection with a STB over wired internet. I have tried the simple method by setting the properties of eth0 to "shared with other..." but that does not work. The STB needs to get an ip-address so I guess I need a dhcp server as well. I have installed it and tried to configure it according to the method described here: https://linuxconfig.org/what-is-dhcp-and-how-to-configure-dhcp-server-in-linux but I get an error when I try to start it, and I can't figure out exactly what is wrong. Can someone help?

don't remember, does your box has NAND flash? In case the answer is yes, always remember to unplug the power everytime you reboot the box.
No this box has emmc. However, I'v found that the safest (read "stay out of trouble") is to powercycle at every reboot anyway

Does anyone have the original firmware for the Q96 Home 4k tv-box with RK3228 cpu? Or any other suitable firmware that I can flash in maskrom mode to unbrick the box?

where you most probably have the readme from, which contains the lines you tried: https://github.com/hexdump0815/u-boot-misc
as this is not really armbian related, lets better do any potential follow up discussion as an issue in this github repo
No??

Ok, I'm not familiar with Github so can you please point me to where the discussion is?

this is where i have the patches located when compiling my own kernel or u-boot
So where can I get the "compile" folder?

@Reddwarf please keep on the subjects of the threads - this one here is about rk322x and not rk3328 ... to me it looks like you are trying to compile arm code on an intel machine maybe - for that you'll need to cross compile or compile native on an arm machine ... followup if needed please in a separate thread
best wishes - hexdump
Started a new topic about building problems on ARM platform, can you please help?

@hexdump Trying to compile your uboot from github I get this error:

Am I missing some files or what?

you might have a look at this, but you are on your own then (no warranties or support from my side) - for me it worked to get my h96max h2 which cannot boot from sd card too working by installing an adjusted u-boot - https://github.com/hexdump0815/u-boot-misc/blob/master/readme.rk3328-no-sd-boot
Been trying to build this SW on a Linux Mint laptop, when I get to "make PLAT=rk3328 DEBUG=1 bl31" the result is:
CC bl31/bl31_context_mgmt.c
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-mstrict-align’; did you mean ‘-Wstrict-aliasing’?
make: *** [Makefile:1070: build/rk3328/debug/bl31/bl31_context_mgmt.o] Error 1Can somebody more experienced than me please give me a hint on what to do about it?

Thanks, might need a bit modifying, I'll have to read me up on rk3328....

My hypothesis is that you are in loader mode, so you can upload a firmware update but can't upgrade your loader.
To be able to upgrade the loader also you must be in maskrom mode. To enter maskrom mode you can either gate the clock of the eMMC (via the screwdriver trick of the unbrick section) or run rkdeveloptool rd 3 while in loader mode.
Once you're there, first you have to "download" the loader binary on the soc (that's called usbplug in this stage) to initialize DDR memory and load the basic services of the SoC, and then you can finally upgrade the loader itself (see the rkdeveloptool db and ul commands on the first post on how to restore backups).
You may take a look to this repository for binaries for rk3328
Thanks, how can I determine what binary I should use for updating the loader? If I run Cpu-z on the original Android is says that the cpu is a 3028, what is correct?

@Reddwarf Searching that box through google, I find an RK3328 device. Unfortunately I have no experience with rk3328, but I guess the general rules about rockchip socs probably applies to this one too. You may profit from the first post, specifically from the unbrick section and the rkdeveloptool instructions to make and restore backups/images.
You probably need a male-to-male USB cable to do such low-level tricks, but if you grab the original Android image you can probably be able to restore at least the original functionality.
Yes I have the original Android image and can flash it with the factory tool. But I want to run Armbian and the problem is that the box does not boot from sdcard or usb with the factory bootloader. I'v tried to flash a new bootloader with the rkdeveloptool but the response is "this operation is not supported". If I flash Armbian in the box it does not boot. However, the factory tool is capable of flashing bootloader (I can see it does that while flashing Android), so if there is a way to replace the bootloader aection in the Android image I might be on dry ground.

I don't do this kind of equipment, and I have no idea what's wrong with it.
The GPS receiver is not the problem, it work just fine under Linux Mint, transmits ascii data at 9600baud. But I'm struggeling to find what port it is connected to in /dev. As I said, lsusb tells me that it is connected to bus02 - device02. Is there not support for serial usb devices in Armbian? (since there is no ttyUSBxx in /dev)?

Running Armbian_20.07_Arm-64_focal_current_5.7.9_desktop.img and trying to connect a GPS receiver via USB. lsusb tells me that the device is device002 on bus002. I would expect it to be ttyUSB002 i /dev, but there are no ttyUSB in /dev at all. What device is it in /dev then?

Well I'v read the topic and tried booting exactly as described. I presume the usb stick containing Armbian should be in USB1, The box just boots android and nothing interesting happens. I there a way to replace the uboot in the box with the one on the sdcard? Perhaps using dd command under Linux anv connect the box with reset button pressed?
No???

This is a" bad " model, it requires a lot of extra steps to run.
Use the combined launch method (SD+USB), infa, how to do it is in this topic and in the topic about rk3328.
@balbes150 I can't seem to find the topic about RK3328, I have read the first post in this forum and have tried the SD+USB method but the box does not boot from SD anyway. Is there a way to replace the uboot in the box with yours?

No I have not, I honestly have no idea what to do with it
Sorry, inaccurate answer. I know what the uboot is for, I'm not sure where to pt it. Flashing it to sdcard won't help as the box will not boot from sdcard anyway. Is it an idea to try to flash it to the box using the standard RK-dev flasher?

My bad. RK3328 is ARMv8-A processor so 322X images will not help. You will have to work with images from balbes150.
Have you tried u-boot from https://yadi.sk/d/_rQgn_FosYuW0g/U-BOOT/OLD/U-BOOT-RK3328/20191114

No I have not, I honestly have no idea what to do with it

So I have this A5X Max 4k box with RK3328 cpu, I'v had no luck booting Armbian on it. Am I lost or is there a trick to make it boot?

Well, first of all, I'm trying to get this working on just Armbian, second; I have tried ALL the recepies I could find on Google and none of them work so I'm pretty desperate....
