    It looks to me way too complex from the maintenance point of view: users may create unwanted mixtures installing things from the multitool over already installed systems (for example 24.02 bootloader on an older armbian release); and also when armbian advances I have to keep the multitool binaries updated as well. It is already very tiring keeping the thing aligned against mainline kernel on every release I don't want to add another burden.
     
    One thing that solves all the boot problems is to reintroduce the OPTEE trust os: it surely does not unwanted things in the background, but then we lose some useful features.
    Otherwise I would keep the "manual" procedure for the time being for the problematic boards, until I get the hands on one of them and can study the issue with detail, or some bright idea pops out.

    When we now see thats is a moreover need part maybe it is also a good idea to integrate a point in Multitool where a this 2MB part is flash to emmc or nand to replace the bootloader from normal Armbian image

    thats look like a power or thermal problem maybe , did you managed to try (sdcard or usb) with cpu-stability to overlays= line in /boot/armbianEnv.txt
    or verbosity=7 and look in the Serial log maybe still always same step where it break
     
    hope you have a serial adapter at the box

    but thats tooo much
     
    too much thermal stress for chip and so on ....
     
    also the maskrom mode is more to get into SD/USB boot when you have a close bootloader or when you need to flash from pc , there you short that pin shortly only to say cpu internal loader use alternate drive , you have to release the short direct after boot to use the emmc and format it
     
    please look if you can boot still from usb/sd card , please dont use usb sdcard reader only direkt sd card

    HI @audio kees
     
    first of all do you have also Ram chips at underside of the board , else i would say that you have a eMCP ( emmc + ram combination) , eMCP are now possible with multitool and armbian but sometimes instable outside android
     
    for the brick , you dont need the clock under the chip , also possible to GND the clock at a resistor or test point , sometimes also at the pad for NAND  on right side of your picture is possible
    but self with brick memory a boot from SD-Card or USB should always possible

    yes when LAN port work for you and the box get a ip adress its now possible to ssh
     
    do you have a usb cale keyboard attached to the tv box , you have to hit enter/space to except the license
    ( some wired and some wireless keyboard dont work under linux because they need some usb driver but that rare )

    but this isnt the kernel , that is the armbian base system update .
     
    my knowladge that kernel never get update at non offizial Armbain device with apt-upgrade , ever only the base system in some range
     
    also than we have the package with header linux-header-rk322x_23.x.x.....
     
    the new kernel only with new compile complete image files
     
    last year or maybe begin of 2023 i update header without base system this also break one box

    @n3o  As a moderator of these forums, I have been watching your postings.  You are abusing these forums and the people that contribute to them.  (Everyone, especially @RaptorSDS and @jock have been very willing to invest a lot of time to help you)   However, repeatedly you have been given specific information that you ignore, been given advise that you ignore and then you come back with more and more questions.  There are very limited people resources working on Armbian (and even less with TV boxes).  You alone are consuming way more developer time than any one individual has the right to receive.  This is open source, and therefore users are needed to contribute as much as they consume in resources from the community in order for this to work.  This is not a school where you can come to be taught how everything works, demanding the attention of everyone else to teach you. 
     
    Your latest questions are now venturing into very deep and difficult areas of code (none of which is expected to work on these TV boxes as has been mentioned to you).  If you want to continue down the path you are going, you first need to become an expert at these topics on known working platforms, then you can try to apply that expertise on TV boxes.  You may not realize it, but the questions you are asking, are essentially asking for weeks if not months of developer help to get working, if it is at all possible.

    I had to ask my wife if I should answer in sarcastic, honest  and friendly or funny , she said be friendly , but I can not resist a little joke to start the day .
     
    /joke on , Yes when you wait 28h 73m and 98s you will have a box that do all automatic and have the power of a i9 13990KH /joke off
     
    friendly: you know what you are doing here, that will still be at 11% because that is the part of text that is display, and this page it like every other software the licenses page.
    you know that you are in a DOS box like Linux console, you have to use keyboard like in good old times and scroll down with arrow keys and hit TAB to witch cursor location and hit SPACE or ENTER
     
    If the keyboard does not work, please try another one and leave it plugged in right from the start of the box (there are still keyboards that do not work well under linux even though there is a basic driver for generic keyboards).
     
    I don't know if flashing TV boxes is for you if you already have problems with a license text, I understand that you have already flashed the SD card correctly, but this is not windows 11 which automates everything and gets you through the setup agent with mouse and keyboard.
     
    Please have in mind following :
     
    We think that people should understand that this is all at their own risk and that they need to understand something about what they are about to do like uart adapter or working with ssh or console.

    Actually I forgot to update the first post: the FAT partition has now been changed to NTFS to overcome the 4GB maximum file size limitation of FAT32.
    I think I made a post about that, but forgot to update the first post. Sorry, I'm going to fix that right now!
     
    Despite that, the multitool works exactly the same as before.

    Yes I know you want a box that will boot Armbian only with insert SD card and you are fine, now we have some difficulties and you try to read all that can help and try to do things by yourself while waiting.

    You try to do the right steps but as last time please be more patient.

    Yes we now know that you have some exp in software but not linux and not this box. Yes we understand that you try to understand every step and try to be a good help but please dont mix topic.
    Not every box is the same, not every chip is the same, so not all pictures are like your box.
     
     
    Jock want the log files, not picture of the boot from mutitool and/or log file of trying direct flash armbian on sd card and then boot.

    We can not support Android or anything that comes from Android.

    Yes we are very, very short in describing what we expect in every single step we want from everyone who has problem and ask for help.
    But here are so many who just post not working and thats it or people who dont read first topic.
    And also we are write so often to try to help and we think that many have already followed that our topic is Armbian on this box or dont understand that this all is also our free time and hobby. We think that people should understand that this is all at their own risk and that they need to understand something about what they are about to do like uart adapter or working with ssh or console.

    Yes correct --> NAND install = legacy armbian
    but you can boot latest Armbian from SD card or USB and ignore NAND complete 
     
     
    Bootloader update only possible with male - male USB cable and rktool outside of the box
     
    there are 3 bootloader 
    1. open ones ,  SD-Card , USB and NAND boot allow , boot SD-CARD/USB also if there a OS in NAND or install Armbian legacy to nand
    2. open ones  , SD-Card USB Boot  NAND boot allow but boot NAND first , there you can try the new point in Multitool "Jump start " that always redirect boot to SD-Card   or install Armbian legacy to nand
    3 close ones (rare ones), that the ones with probleme where you have to update bootloader
     
     
    Please !!! do the simple steps first , simple install legacy to nand and try it --> flash multitool on SD-card , put image file in the folder , start multitool , save android , clean nand and install(flash) armbian to nand
     
    or flash image file on sd-card and boot armbian legacy or  newest
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    we do need them only when all other failed  , RK322x have some already inside armbian , many work with many diffirent setups and hardware already no need to do 10 step ahead
    please simple first !!!!
     
    please dont do this 10 steps ahead , i only want to say make a backup of android its good to have one also if corrupt .
