    EtlARM got a reaction from CubieTourist in CubieTruck: File not found /boot/boot.bmp   
    Is this problem back again?
    https://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/690-upgrade-error-with-armbian-500-on-cubieboard2-running-from-nand/
     
    I also experienced problems with the 5.24 (or was it 5.23?) upgrade made during Christmas. It also bricked the system on NAND, but I don't remember what went wrong. I reinstalled from scratch because no supporting tools where available far away from home.
     
    With the right tools to hand it should be possible to recreate the boot files on NAND with the help of the linked thread.
     
     
    As I have to do the 5.25 upgrade in the next days, I would appreciate when this problem gets sorted out sooner than later...

    "Good" to hear other have the same problem... after the workaround went fine on my CubieBoard2 I bricked my production system CubieTruck the same way, you described. The workaround trick went fine on the CubieTruck. But after reboot the system does not start anymore:
     red power LED near power jack is lit  network LEDs show some activity  SATA disk stays off  front LEDs stay off  VGA has no signal  no other reaction observable  
    I had similar NAND boot problems in the past, so I assumed it is the same case again. The last time it was sufficient to leave the board unpowered for some hours (discharging battery a bit), but this time nothing helped. So I migrated my complete system back to SDCARD, and it is working like before.
     
    After thinking a night about the problem, it might be sufficient to manually update all kernel files on NAND1. I did not test that.
    Do you have a serial cable to watch the boot output? (I don't have one.)

    When doing apt-upgrade to get the latest linux-jessie-root-cubieboard2, it fails with this error message:

    When /boot is on NAND it is not possible to link files there, maybe that is the problem?

    Workaround: manually remove 
     
    dpkg -r linux-jessie-root-cubieboard2
     
    and install
     
    apt-get install linux-jessie-root-cubieboard2

    I can prove, that your intended setup is working on my CubieTruck and also on the CubieBoard2:
    I'm booting Armbian from NAND and a SDCARD, a HDD and USB drives can be mounted as expected.
