There are already several boards with the small SPI flash installed. This is perfect for the u-boot storage. Than the board starts from this SPI flash and looks for the /boot folder on SD card and USB storage. I've moved the system from the SD to USB HDD included the /boot folder and removed the SD card. When I power-on the board, the HDD starts and everything works fine. But when rebooted, the HDD is suspended at the shutdown end and the u-boot doesn't wait until it starts again and the booting fails as "No USB storage found". Is there any way how to disable the HDD suspend in the system? I was looking around how to disable this function somehow in the HDD itself ( Maxtor HDD), but nothing found. I've tested several other USB HDDs and external USB/SATA adapters and it's common for all of them.

Today I've used fresh install Armbian_5.24_Orangepipc_Debian_jessie_default_3.4.113 and used my favorite WiFi dongle based on RTL8188CUS. But when tried to connect with nmtui, it halts the system and reboots. The WiFi is connected via a powered hub and the OPi PC has strong power supply too. It's not related to the power issue for sure. I've seen a lot of issues at the previous version, but guess that it was all solved before the version release. EDIT: the driver issue still persists in this last version. When rebuild the driver, as described above, it works.

Hence I've modified a image a lot, don't want to do is again. What to modify to get it working on older image than from today?

Oops, but I have OrangePi PC, which is not listed. When it will be fixed for this board?

I have the same issue, may be it's still related to use of HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. At Jessie I've used the h3disp utility to set the -d parameter. But with the mainline there is dtb instead of bin boot configuration file and therefor no this utility anymore available.
