Hello @Werner, so is the recommendation not to do a do-release-upgrade just yet?

Does anyone know how a do-release-upgrade affect an Armbian 24.8.3 installation? Had anyone upgraded to the 24.04.1 LTS release of Ubuntu? Any gotyas when upgrading? Things to do and things to avoid? What changes to allow and which to deny? I've done a release upgrade once, it took a long time and questions were asked and options presented suring the release upgrade process. Obviously I'll take an image of the MicroSD card before I even dream of attempting to use the do-release-upgrade.

So... Taken the latest Armbian system update and on kernel version 6.6.31 no more CPU stalls. 🙂 Whoever fixed this, thank-you.

This started happening since accepting the kernel when I used apt to upgrade the BananaPi Pro sbc I've got. armbianmonitor report: https://paste.armbian.com/izuboducul @teknoid are you aware of this?

Provide diagnostic logs with ... armbianmonitor -u ... and post the link here. It'll may help others determine what the issue is.

You mentioned that it's a fake. Possibly because it is a copy it may have not be a perfect copy and that may be why you can't find firmware that will work with it. Also, the only place to find official Armbian images. Have you tried building your own image using the Armbian build tools? That way you can customise the image you're building to your requirements. Read the Armbian documentation: https://docs.armbian.com/

Have you gone through the basic troubleshooting steps? See: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Basic-Troubleshooting/

Maybe there has been a glitch in the update release process? I performed a sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade and this has pulled down an automated build. Should it had pulled down a supported build instead?

@NepT1 I think ufw and iptables-restore are not compatible with each other. Several articles on the Internet I've seen seem to mention to turn off UFW if using iptables-restore. Something I've not looked at for myself so I need to do some of my own research. To signpost you, I guess a good place to start is a Google search like, or similar to: https://www.google.com/search?q=linux+"iptables-restore"+"ufw"

@Esteve Have a look at this article: https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/switch-boot-target-to-text-gui-in-systemd-linux/ What is the result of the command ... systemctl get-default ... ?

Yup. That's an oops on my part. If you've got one, use a USB to Serial card to connect a computer to the serial debug port on the SBC and you'll be able to login to the system that way and then try diagnose the issue that way. See: https://wiki.t-firefly.com/en/ROC-RK3568-PC/debug.html When I started with my Banana Pi Pro I could not get any video to display on the HDMI port right from the beginning. When I got a USN-to-Serial bridge I completed the initial setup using that method and, mysteriously, the HDMI port started to work and still works to this day.
