[I2S on Orange Pi H3]

And by using Armbian as build system and adding a simple 'add volumio' function to customize-image.sh (when it's not about RPi) Volumio would run on ~40 SBC already. Please read through:

• https://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/3487-soc-compatibility/

At least that's one of my goals contributing to Armbian project: Stop re-inventing the wheel again and again.

I agree with you on the principle: there is lot of effort going into lots of distro, if they were focused only on one sure we'll have a really fine tuned system. Unfortunately with Volumio we use a very peculiar mounting mechanism (squashfs + overlayfs) and we based the whole partitioning on that. I fear that just an override script won't be enough to customize armbian enough. In any case I'll give a try.

I understand you are against reinventing the wheel, and I agree on this, but some practical reasons and peculiarity of all distros are a showstopper for a "universal" OS, IMHO

Hi, we've designed Volumio to be easily ported to other platforms. You can see our build scripts here:

 

https://github.com/volumio/Build

 

You can take inspiration from the build script for Odroid for example:

https://github.com/volumio/Build/blob/master/scripts/odroidc1config.sh

https://github.com/volumio/Build/blob/master/scripts/odroidc1image.sh

 

Simply copy them as orangepiconfig.sh and orangepiimage.sh and modify them accordingly, once done add the references to :

https://github.com/volumio/Build/blob/master/build.sh

 

If you need some assistance, jump on our forum where we can give assistance if needed https://volumio.org/forum/

 

Let me know how it goes
