@Tim Makarios I tested on NanoPi M1 32 bit and Pine 64 64 bit. I believe if the kernel headers install then it will most likely work. I cannot test WPA3. If it works with another adapter on the same distro/board then maybe it's the source.

@Tim Makarios made change to README. WPA2 personal worked for me. I don't have WPA3, so you are on your own there. And yes the antenna is not very good, but I get 20 Mbs going through 2 rooms with drywall board.

@Tim Makariosall set. I added BRANCH for the linux headers. I also fixed the prompt for /etc/issues asked during apt upgrade.

Good catch, I need to get the release as well. I'll fix that tomorrow. For now you can use the manual steps and "current".

I was able to get RTL8188FTV $2.00 US USB wifi https://www.ebay.com/itm/123713550193 working with a script I made from a forked project. The power saver has already been disabled in the Makefile. Check out https://github.com/sgjava/rtl8188fu/tree/arm. I've tested this on ARM 32 and ARM 64, but not x86 or x86_64. This is currently a dkms module that requires beta repos to get matching kernel headers.

@Kovács Gábor as I've stated above I've had no luck with USB wifi. I did test C1 with "Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8152 Fast Ethernet Adapter" The thing is network manager is not going to auto activate it. You'll need to go into the serial console and configure with nmtui. I do this with the NanoPi Duo since there's no wired Ethernet. The nice thing is the Duo uses the OTG port, so you can power and do serial off your PC. If you see a heartbeat then it's probably firing up. One trick you could use is to configure a C1 with same USB Ethernet and just copy the configuration over from nmtui. For instance built in eth0 is under /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/Wired\ connection\ 1.nmconnection. You'd need to figure out which network manager files to copy. I used to do this with wifi only devices. Configure on the hard way, then just make edits on SD card.

@torz77That may be why all wifi adapters cause the ping response to go up into the seconds and heartbeat slows way down. It's probably in the device tree (dtb) or uboot, show knows. This is definitely a hack way to do it, but nothing else runs current kernels or distros. But yeah, manual power cycle for now.

@torz77Any other stuff you find not working I'll add to issues. C1 was never meant to run 6.1 kernel, hahahaha

This is the image I made today with master branch Armbian_23.02.0-trunk_Odroidc1_jammy_edge_6.1.13.img. Fires up as normal using Ethernet port, no hdmi, reboot or shutdown. I'll update the original post. After boot: Linux odroidc1 6.1.13-meson #trunk SMP Wed Feb 22 20:20:05 UTC 2023 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linu

OK guys, you need to use the master branch. I started with a blank slate and updated the original post. @Kovács Gábor did you use edge on a C1? If so, did you get the blue led heartbeat? I'll try now with new edge image.

Yes, I'm finding main is hosed, trying master now from scratch.

OK seeing same error with fresh build dir. Let's try different branch.

I changed setp 1 git clone --depth=1 --branch=main https://github.com/armbian/build

I think main is now master? I'll do it from scratch, hold on...

OK, I see: [ o.k. ] Checking git sources [ u-boot-odroidc1 odroidc-v2011.03 ] [ .... ] Up to date as yours is trying to download it. Check for ./output/debs/linux-u-boot-current-odroidc1_23.02.0-trunk_armhf.deb

I never tried on a C0, only C1 and C1+. Also there's an option to compress the image, but you'd need to decompress to dd xz.

I always do a git pull before a build. Just paste your compile line and the tail of the failed build. Just for fun you might want to just do a clean clone in another dir.

I just tried this: wget -c -O ./output/debs/linux-u-boot-edge-odroidc1_23.02.0-trunk_armhf.deb http://apt.armbian.com/pool/main/l/linux-u-boot-odroidc1-current/linux-u-boot-current-odroidc1_21.02.3_armhf.deb sudo ./compile.sh CLEAN_LEVEL= BOARD=odroidc1 BRANCH=edge RELEASE=jammy REPOSITORY_INSTALL= BUILD_MINIMAL=no BUILD_DESKTOP=no KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no KERNEL_ONLY=no COMPRESS_OUTPUTIMAGE=sha,gpg,img and it works fine. Make sure BRANCH=edge as step 5 says.

Right, so look at https://github.com/armbian/build/releases and 23.02.0 looks right.

In step 4 you only change linux-u-boot-edge-odroidc1_23.02.0-trunk_armhf.deb. This is what tricks the build into using old deb.

Should work OK for you. I tried current build (5.x kernek) and found it unstable. i.e. the file system would go read only. Edge seems fine.

Yes, but only edge build seems to work. I cannot find a wifi adapter that works. The old Odroid wifi module 3 doesn't work any more. I've built a driver from source, but no luck yet. Wired seems to work fine. I believe the dtb and uboot, etc need to be fixed, but no one including Hard Kernel are doing that. I have several C1s I'd like to keep alive for projects.

@Markus_ I created a new post that has all the steps

I answered my own question, hahaha
