I've installed a pristine copy of Armbian_5.38_Nanopiair_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.15 onto an SD card, booted up my NanoPi Neo Air successfully. I even managed to get wifi to work, etc. When trying to enable the SPI interface (ls -la /dev/ | grep -i spi returns no devices) I ran sudo armbian-config which suddenly started to flash my eMMC. The strange thing is that my keyboard seems to be just fine, no other application on my machine is "typing automatically". The screen during the flash is also seemingly broken. Did anyone experience the same? Thanks. (Is there another way to enable SPI without the armbian-config utility if it indeed seems to be broken?)

Hi there, I'm trying to run luma.examples using an SSD1322 display via an SPI interface. I think I got the wiring right but the software is responding with errors. The app is expecting D/C and RESET parameter via a GPIO pin numbers to control the display.. I'm not sure how the Nano PI NEO Air physical pins are mapped to a GPIO port under Armbian. Where can I get a list of mappings for the physical pins to the GPIO pin numbers? How does this work? Is this an OS specific thing? Thanks in advance.

I have a NanoPi Neo Air (Allwinner H3 SoC) with onboard wifi and a serial interface. Unfortunately during some late hour hacking I managed to accidentally connect 5V onto its TX pin, I think effectively screwing up its UART0. I can no longer connect to it via a USB to TTL Serial cable. Looking at the NeoPi Nano Air's pinout diagram, it seems to have more UART devices (UART1 and UART2 even) so I wonder whether there's a way to set up armbian to communicate via these during boot? Another idea I had was to try to bypass the UART completely and to hook up the board via the wifi. Now, without having any access to a serial console, I need to try getting armbian to connect to a wifi automatically and run an SSH service so that I can control the board. How does one go about this? Do I need to get a bootloader config in place somehow? How do I do it without having another Allwinner H3 device? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
