Hello Andreas, I think on the mainline kernel (&ubuntu) something like zram-config can be used zram is configured to take precedence over sdcard swapfile in swap gr@bpi:~$ swapon -s Filename Type Size Used Priority /home2/swap file 1953120 0 -1 /dev/zram0 partition 102548 356 5 /dev/zram1 partition 102548 388 5 http://packages.ubuntu.com/wily/zram-config

FYI, I probably have the same issue on lamobo-r1, I was never able to use the "OTG" microusb port

@Igor it seems the image boot / reboot I have tried SSH (then the session stops) login as: root root@192.168.1.15's password: Access denied root@192.168.1.15's password: Access denied root@192.168.1.15's password: Access denied root@192.168.1.15's password: Access denied root@192.168.1.15's password: Server refused to set environment variables You are required to change your password immediately (root enforced) Welcome to ARMBIAN (Debian wheezy 3.10.93-odroid) Changing password for root.

Moin Tkaiser, the AX88179 is an extra USB3-ethernet dongle (**) the onboard usb3-ethernet is r8152 (**) in case I later replace the lamobo-r1 with XU4 for Internet over fiber.

FYI boot from my spare sdcard (not Armbian)

@Igor, I have make an Odroid XU4 image (kernel 4.2.6, trusty) but realized after unzipping & burning the sdcard both /dev/sdb1 and /dev/sdb2 file systems are broken from the raw image (same sdcard used to test an image for lamobo-r1 kernel 4.3.3 with "master" branch) I will make an new image later in the afternoon, back from work note : I had error messages on the first build, I deleted "trusty.tgz" , error messages disappeared

(see EDIT below first) EDIT: The call to recompile the dkms script is probably fine ok in fact the mistake, the pre-remove "image" script shall not remove all the dkms sources because when the recompile dkms script is started, there is not any dkms to compile at all :-)

I will be looking more closely at the links when possible With the ssd I didn't get much better than 160 MB/s (with SanDisk SSD PLUS 120GB SDSSDA-120G-G25 -- 35 Euros!) So I have switched to Seagate Momentus 5400.6 ST9500325AS [500 GB] 5400 rpm as gigabit ethernet max at 100MB/s for a NAS gr@odroid:~$ sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sda /dev/sda /dev/sda /dev/sda: Timing cached reads: 1978 MB in 2.00 seconds = 990.41 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 226 MB in 3.00 seconds = 75.23 MB/sec Timing cached reads: 1974 MB in 2.00 seconds = 988.95 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 226 MB in 3.01 seconds = 75.18 MB/sec Timing cached reads: 1976 MB in 2.00 seconds = 989.91 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 226 MB in 3.01 seconds = 75.20 MB/sec the eMMC 32GB is faster! gr@odroid:~$ sudo hdparm -tT /dev/mmcblk0 /dev/mmcblk0 /dev/mmcblk0: Timing cached reads: 2034 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1019.14 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 308 MB in 3.01 seconds = 102.38 MB/sec /dev/mmcblk0: Timing cached reads: 2042 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1023.01 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 310 MB in 3.01 seconds = 103.12 MB/sec EDIT: I will be testing Armbian for XU4 when possible

buddies, ok, new test kernel 4.3.3-sunxi, built @18.15 Good Nice fixes. thanks installing the Armbian kernel *.deb the package installed dkms sources are removed completely, so they are not reinstalled/compiled for the next boot. This very same process / package sources are working fine with Ubuntu 14.04 amd64 My workaround is "Unpacking frandom-dkms (1.1-0centrych4) over (1.1-0centrych4) ..." Where do I put a feature request, please? github?

I got my USB/UART for odroid XU4 from Hardkernel/South Korea, for testing.

I discovered the issue earlier sys/type.h while trying to compile a module. But I have libc6-dev testing again EDIT : ok I have reinstalled the *.deb files and it is gone so I guess there is a problem when I have compiled the "make scripts" in the headers

ok, thanks @tkaiser @Igor @Tido Reading http://linux-sunxi.org/LeMaker_Banana_Pi on the lamobo-r1 with "Armbian 5.00 mainline kernel 4.3.3" sudo /sbin/agetty --keep-baud 115200 38400 9600 ttyS0 vt220 using putty on my Trusty-based PC with Prolific cable serial /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 now creating my /etc/init/ttyS0.conf Et voilà merci à tous.

I guess it would help Igor. @all https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseNotes#Linux_kernel_4.2 A new kernel for the Raspberry Pi 2 has also landed in the official archive. I haven't tested anyway. Revamping 15.10 with jessy and ubuntu kernel ???

@Igor (?) Sunday morning are hard, sleeping is better. just a little fix, only functions can be local, not variable (at least with bash from trusty) I am testing "dev"/ branchless also thanks for the picture in the thread "lamobo-r1" and USB-uart but you have missed your little precious comment as the picture is from bananapi.com what is the uart (uart0) or another one please? thank you

@Toast @Igor would know better ** File not found /boot/.next ** .next is used for mainline kernel The only piece of advise as "newbie", can you try to write the image from a linux machine with dd or better dc3dd tool ? so we can make sure there is no "options" making the sdcard badly written dcfldd has also a nice "on the fly" hashing mechanism (so to avoid complex md5 or sha*) => dc3dd & dcfldd are improved forks of dd Also, after writing the sdcard, "sudo fsck /dev/sdX1" would be nice as "** Unrecognized filesystem type **"

Hello, I am using for the first time a cable Neuftech PL2303HX I was looking @ lamobo-r1.fex file and cannot figure out which pins are the default uart for boot-up (not skilled enough yet) both links mention P13 as default, but I cannot get any messages from USB-uart cable (double checked UART RX & TX + ground) http://linux-sunxi.org/Lamobo_R1 http://www.bananapi.com/index.php/component/content/article?layout=edit&id=59 Thanks!

Buddies, ok again my bad sorry. I have been using an old broken .config => the kernel was unable to boot Also playing with KERNEL_KEEP_CONFIG="yes" made me wrong for a long time! 1/ tested an image... booting ok 2/ replaced the whole set of files it seems like it works like a new image at restart "Restart is required" (previously I wasn't applying "linux-trusty-root-next-lamobo-r1_5.00_armhf.deb for kernel upgrades) happy with "master" branch!! thanks EDIT: FYI I have noticed this warning message

Buddies, I have made 2 tests: 1/ installing 2/ burning to sdcard (master branch, next kernel line, uboot 15.10 + sunxi-ss hwrng patch) Both ended with "starting kernel... " and stalling, see screenshot thanks!

@zador.blood.stained @Igor ok my bad!!!!

more testing...

one more detail @zador.blood.stained you think like one of the "Armbian lib" tool writer/dev I think like an end user wishing to patch the kernel as quickly as possible, messing as little as possible with "lib" *.sh and folders, getting my kernel debian files to update my device. So having as little as possible to understand the internal of the "Armbian lib" Thanks for you help

little suggestion (bash only): trap '{ echo "Hey, you pressed Ctrl-C. Time to quit." ; exit 1; }' INT would be useful as CTRL-C can break one script and the others can keep going on.

I my mind, userpatches is to avoid messing with lib/patch (minimizing changes in lib directory, so being more "portable" / configurable, I don't like much git conflit when "git pull" the armbian lib (git saying "save your changes" or you cannot update)

btw I would suggest to add in main.sh edit: also in configuration.sh, else it cannot be used by [ -z $USEALLCORES ] && USEALLCORES="yes" # Use all CPU cores for compiling EDIT 2:I mean a quick switch between ALLCORES and a single core is useful to catch compile errorr faster. CCACHE is here to help with single core compile... if possible

btw I would have suggested to add in lib/patching.sh in advanced_patch () mkdir -p "$SRC/userpatches/$dest/$family/$device" mkdir -p "$SRC/userpatches/$dest/$family" so next-time the user can fill the proper directory with the patches without having to add logs and read patching.sh
