Yes, but AFAIK on other TV boxes an internal install shouldn't touch vital portions of the emmc. And Rockchip devices should still boot from SDCARD?

Is it possible to install Armbian into internal memory without jumping though hoops?

Hello, I'm thinking of a possible use case for this box, but I would need to use the internal emmc. Is it still not possible to install armbian internally? What are these 2 partitions? SDcard? Well, I did post that image after @Lizzo69's request and you only have 2 posts more 😉

Ok, get the files from here: https://mega.nz/folder/oSESxDTJ#9U3_TGFAGGW_8ep9z_aCKw I wrote the .img to an SDcard and then followed the instructions for the .dtb file. The SDcard has two partitions, inside the first there are the boot files and a folder named "dtb", I copied the "rk3528-vontar-dq08.dtb" file into the "rockchip" folder that is inside the "dtb" folder. I then edited the "armbianEnv.txt" file, changing this line: fdtfile=rockchip/rk3528-evb1-ddr4-v10.dtb into this: fdtfile=rockchip/rk3528-vontar-dq08.dtb

@jpegqs Thanks! I've been able to successfuly compile and test it. I'm a bit disappointed since I expected a bit more performance from the CPU on this thing. One last question: What does the multitool.img do?

Hello, I have one of those TV Boxes (DQ08) and I'd like to try to use Armbian with it. Since it's not a supported device I can't find info about what to download and what to do; Could someone point me to a tutorial or give me some info? Thanks.
