Just tried Armbian 23.5 Bookworm, cli & minimal.   Both report the same in the console.  Board works just fine with official img from www.friendlyelec.com

Here is the terminal output.

[Armbian configuration utility]

I was informed about Armbian today, and so far from what I am reading it looks very promising.

I was on the Armbian configuration utility doc page:

https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Armbian-Config/

 

But it says nothing on how to start it. whats the command for it ?
