OK thx - rather than Jammy I think I finally got bookworm to "fly", but the freshly flashed image booted without network, and thus the initial setup is a bit cumbersome. As from the "logs" below I had to unmask the systemd-networkd.service first, before the network ports became usable ... PS: Beside just unmasking the service with systemctl unmask systemd-networkd.service it has to be enabled as well with systemctl enable systemd-networkd.service to have it started after a reboot.

BTW: How would you (easily) install armbian-config, if you don't have internet connection? 😉 But yes, as it's part of the jammy / booksworm builds: I've tried set stauts of some ports to managed, or to set a static IP address - no success.

Sorry folks, I think I'm suffering from the the same 'disease', but I'm still 'blind' to see the solution to the following issue. I'm on a v5 board to which I flashed the "new" uboot version a long time, ago. (I think I flashed flash-image-DDR3-1g_2cs_2-800_800.bin that time as I had timing issues with the version with higher speed.) Though I could get the system to boot after the reset of the uboot environment I never was able to get the i-net running on the applied images, so I gave up in the end. "Messing around" with my Cubietrucks atm I thought I would give the espressobin a second try, but still without success. To me it looks like network manager is running and when I set "/sbin/ip link set dev wan up" as suggested by @y52 the wan-port will get ipv6 addresses (I have to connections to the i-net), but no ipv4 ones. So what do I have to do to get those (in the meantime community versions of bookworm etc.) to work?

It does, thx!

Folks, it has been a long time since I messed around with my ebin v5, but just wanted give it a second chance as I need to do something about my EOL Cubietruck (and my "broken" NT4 domain). So I started a second attempt with "Armbian_22.08.1_Espressobin_bullseye_current_5.15.63" just a few days ago, but didn't got much further than updating uboot and to apt update / upgrade the system, before I got distracted again. In the meantime I noticed the new "Armbian_22.11.1_Espressobin_bullseye_current_5.15.80" and I thought it would be a better idea starting from scratch with that version. However, when I boot this up from SD the only interface shown ("ifconfig") is lo. (I 'see' the other port with "ifconfig -a", but I don't get an IP set (via DHCP) whatever physical port I use on the topaz switch, though the leds are happily blinking indicating a proper link.
