Thanks @balbes150
Its seems a hard task!
Maybe I wait for someone create a dtb for A95X Max..........or someone send me some links to start....maybe to start in first step....
1. get the primary information to create an option for your model
Thanks

Hello again
I try to extract dtb file following this post, and other posts on net
the only way I can get the dtb file (meson1.dtb) is with a tool Amlogic Customization Tool that someone comments about in above post
but I try boot it in my box without success, it try to boots, jump to black screen after a 1 or 2 seconds
Update: I uses the above command to extract dtb, I extract dtb.img, and test it to boot, but some error ir won't boot, black screen after 1sec
dd if=/dev/dtb | gzip > /storage/emulated/0/Download/dtb.img.gz
can someone help me to extract a bootable dtb for my A95X max Box, help me to get access to usb to sata bridge module, to mount sata disk
Thanks on advance

You are right this is a A95X Max!
And not a x96 Max, sorry but I forget the post title and forget to say my box modelo, and this create some confusion.
Now I understand why eMMC backup and restore works in your box and not um mine. And why you say that "On X96 max there are no SATA devices."
Is this One FreakTab Link
I'm posting on wrong topic.
Maybe I Open another topic for this box
Thanks @balbes150

Photos has requested...
About eMMC backup and restore, it works using nand-sata-install, but armbian never boots....
I post a lots of related info about boot problems, and partition problems above....please scroll up, and view one image that shows the Crash on boot, related with bad partition (added to. This post)
Ir we try to mount the restored Partition, ir inspect it, we sure check that we can mount it
root@aml:~# sudo mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /mnt/mmcblk1p2 mount: /mnt/mmcblk1p2: can't read superblock
Thanks for your support @balbes150

Yes it seem that is a USB <> sata bridge
Its what I try to find, a way to use it on armbian, it works on android
Thanks @balbes150

Hi, any news about X96 MAX eMMC and sata drive?
This is the ONLY things that is missing to close/finish my new post about create a server with X96 Max with eMMC and SataDisk.
Maybe someone help me to use USB bridge with sata disk, and flash it INTO eMMC....
I post relevant info and problems above
Thanks

hello
another problem
I installed one 1tb sata disk and It appears in android OS but is not detected in armbian,has anyone have any idea why the internal sata disk (it uses usb) is not detected with fdisk, parted, usb-devices etc?
maybe is not supported in this kernel yet....$ sudo fdisk -l Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 7.3 GiB, 7850688512 bytes, 15333376 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0xb2ee51e1 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/mmcblk0p1 8192 270335 262144 128M e W95 FAT16 (LBA) /dev/mmcblk0p2 270336 15026687 14756352 7G 83 Linux Disk /dev/mmcblk1: 58.2 GiB, 62537072640 bytes, 122142720 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes $ sudo dmesg | grep usb-storage [ 2.486462] usbcore: registered new interface driver usb-storage $ sudo lsusb Bus 002 Device 002: ID 05e3:0620 Genesys Logic, Inc.

update: disk flashed, booting armbian, and ssh right now.........
awesome work, at last, our great armbian distro working on S905X2
uname -a Linux aml 5.1.0-rc1-aml-s905 #5.77 SMP PREEMPT Sat Apr 6 14:53:09 MSK 2019 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux docker -v Docker version 18.09.2, build 6247962 docker-compose -v docker-compose version 1.17.1, build unknown

Great news (again).
I try it ASAP and leave here my feedback
Thanks @balbes150
update1: where is the link to images @balbes150?
thanks
update2: link: https://yadi.sk/d/pHxaRAs-tZiei/5.77/S905X2 -
Great news.....today I Will try it on my S905X2
I leave feedback here.....
Thanks @balbes150
update: confirm it boots LibreELEC
uname --all Linux LibreELEC 5.1.0-rc1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Apr 5 13:37:17 MSK 2019 aarch64 GNU/Linux
but this is far from useful for a linux server, that is my purpose.
LibreELEC is not based on any debian distro or other distro with a good package manager
......but it have docker, I give it a try
docker --version Docker version 18.09.1, build 18.09.1
but its a start
a question is possible to use this boot kernel with armbian distro?
thanks -

So now my images no DTB for S905x2.
ok thanks, I will try in a near future
I wait, no problem.....
-
For reference - no longer uses the copy file mode dtb to the "dtb.img". To select which dtb to use, edit the file "uEnv.ini".
Nice tip.....and I tested All dtb's with copy method......eheheh....last time I installed armbian this is the method I used....
today I Will try All dtb's with @balbes150 tip
one by One, and post
my findings. I just want the Shell to setup another Linux Sever
.....

@pcconsult first thing after opening the box would be installing Linux
Lol
Is what I do with mine today, when it arrives
awesome hardware
I connect my tested S912/S905x USB stick in first boot with clip just for fun.....but it won't boot (it's to soon yet)
Ir keeps on boot screen....I try some diferent ports, but I'm on work, and dont have time to play with it
Tomorrow or next weekend I Will try some dtb's (startup in first to last) with above sugestted image.....and I post my finds, if it boot we are in good track, if not I wait for a new kernel, but never give up, this box is too great for a server to give up)
If someone has some stuff to test, send it, its a pleasure

if someone has any advice/tips on out to boot armbian on this SOC/S905X2, I will appreciate it...PS: my objective is only boot in linux console mode to install a server with the gigabit or wifi network card
I don't need any acelarated video, graphics chipset stuff etc, only the console/ssh version
thanksKeep the good working

Did you noticed that also in a clean install at system in idle we always have a system load that never goes under 1 caused by vdec-core in uninterruptible sleep?
This is a kernel related problem appeared in last versions and I have reported it here. Do you have some idea about what do to?
I dont know about this idle problem. But when I push system and use more resources, like push docker containers for eg, I have all cores and CPU at higher levels. But I will watch this idle for higher values.....

Nice to read you made it.
PS: Awesome Thread for setup, thanks !!!
hm docker, didn't hear about it, I start reading about it now^^
Did you do a wifi speedtest?Now I try mumble server and a website with apache and mysql.
and dont know docker! welcome
docker is the best thing that appens to IT after Linux (my humble opinion)
you have many containers already setup waiting.........with mysql, php, lamp etc just choose
install docker from my post and follow some good tutorials, and you are learning good stuff man (again my opinion)thanks to all

I Create a small post Alfawise H96 Pro+ Headless setup..............
-
This is a quick notes post for people that want to setup Armbian on AlfaWise H96 Pro+ eMMC and use it as a Headless Server for Docker Microservices
Thanks to @balbes150 @guidol and @Jeycop and all the awsome people of this forum
Tech stack used
Armbian
- Java 8
- Docker
- Spring Framework/Boot 2.0
- Node Js
- Aurelia Freamework
Download Files
- Android firmware (Optional, required in case of revert from eMMC flash)
- New H96 Pro Plus 7.1.2 firmware download By EBox
- Armbian Version
Armbian_5.41_S9xxx_Ubuntu_xenial_3.14.29_server_20180305.img
Flash SDCard or USBDisk
1) use rufus with dd, or linux disks, or dd command to flash above image
2) plug SDcard/Usb into Box
4) Plug power cable into Box while holding reset button pressed
Note:This step is only required if is the first time boot armbian after flash android firmware.....5) See Armbian booting up
8) login with `un:root`, `pw:1234` and configure it
7) reboot
8) login with root
9) start "./install.sh" and wait for finish (5-7 minutes)
(WARNING above command flash eMMC, You Lost ANDROID, dont do that if you dont know how to recovery android firmware, or dont want to use eMMC, SKIP to step 14 for the setup with SdCard/Usb Only)
10) shutdown with `halt` and remove power cable
11) remove SDcard/Usb
12) plug power cable in Box, now you should see Armbian booting up without SDCard/Usb
13) login to catch ip or scan it with `sudo nmap -sS -p 22 192.168.1.0/24 | grep -a4 -b2 00:80:0F:96:E3:01`. Change to your mac and ip
14) SSH To it, and get some info

this required some hacked script to put it to work, lost a few hours to figure it, its not pretty but works after boot and its stable
First remove all modules from `/etc/modules` to leave it initialization for `init.d` script
$ cat /etc/modules #aml_nftl_dev
Next Create a `init.d` hacked script, with some magic and optimized sleeps, without that sleep times or with lower times it wont work, Its very strange that I must load and unload module, and reload again, but its seems the only way to put this working, I know its too strange, and hard to find, maybe someone has a better ways, I belive with some knowledge its easy,
Why its working only that way, dont ask me why, I dont care, for me its not pretty, but its hugly and working, Im happy with it, who cares LOL, I dont waste more time for an elegant and pretty solution......

Thank you.
I got it to work on my internal.
(H96 Pro+ (Plus) green mainboard with LDDR3 produced in 2017)
I used this version "Armbian_5.41_S9xxx_Ubuntu_xenial_3.14.29_server_20180305.img.xz" LINK
Installed it directly over original Firmware with "./install.sh" -script without any problems.
Important for me was to use Rufus to burn the image to a sdcard and to run it without any dtb-file in main directory on the sdcard.
To start from sdcard I pressed the reset-button for few seconds right after I plugged in the power cable.
I was just wondering about the download, because it's under "5.41_KODI-17.6" but I don't need any kodi on this box.
So do I have to clean it up at first, so no storage and performance waste on these additional installations?
Flashed in eMMC at first with Armbian_5.41_S9xxx_Ubuntu_xenial_3.14.29_server_20180305.img.xz but without backup and restore like sugested.........
Damn why I not try that LOL

I note that you dont backup/restore your partitions! You just use install.sh and nothing more!
I read and have some guide tips from @balbes150 (I think so) to
1) install.sh
2) dont reboot, and backup partitions
3) boot from SD and restore partitions (Fail here)
4) boot from emmc
I never try boot after install.sh like you do, maybe it works without steps 2,3, and 4 too
I note that you comment about remove kody, why you dont flash headless server. I burn headless server and its awsome,very clean

Yes, for me it was very easy ^^
H96Pro+ has 2 different versions. One with LDDR3 and one with DDR4, maybe thats the difference.
I opened the case and there are 2 USB extra inside but no hole in case. Now I have 4x USB ;P
1.) if you changed something on internal EMMC storage -> flash official Firmware (mine was from 12-2017) // I think it's important, so Armbian can read the correct DeviceTree?
2.) Burn image "Armbian_5.41_S9xxx_Ubuntu_xenial_3.14.29_server_20180305.img" with Rufus to SDCard (LINK)
3.) Plug SDcard into Box
4.) Plug power cable into Box while holding reset button pressed
5.) See Armbian booting up
6.) Set username and password
7.) reboot
8.) login
9.) start "./install.sh" and wait for finish (5-7 minutes)
10.) shutdown and remove power cable
11.) remove SDcard
12.) plug power cable in Box, now you should see Armbian booting up without SDCard -> finished
I think the trick is related with the firmware
1.) if you changed something on internal EMMC storage -> flash official Firmware (mine was from 12-2017) // I think it's important, so Armbian can read the correct DeviceTree?
In the past I lost original my firmware, and after a few hours try and failling and searching for a firmware/tools that works I found and use this one

This is the version I used NOW, can you confirm that is the same as yours from above pictures...
I post other pics too like boot faillure on boot with half restored /system from eMMC and my blue board version
It seems your firmware is diferent from mine
Can you confirm please, and the board is the same?
thanks @Jeycop

Hello @Jeycop
First Sorry I forget that you request something in the past,
and I forget what is it,
I think is related with my notes,
only today I received the mail from forum and I remember thatWhen I repply I was on phone and far from my laptop/notes
move on....
Note: I Note here your version is 20180305 and mine is 20180225
Glad to know you flashed your eMMC with Armbian, great achievement,
I try it in past but always I have this error
dd: error writing '/dev/system': No space left on device
it seeems that it requires a 2.0 GiB partion and mine is 1.0 GiB
I try to repartition the partition to increase size but without successMaybe I try with the same image 20180305 and using rufus,
I use "disks" or "dd" in linux to flash the image not rufusI belive is more about with that image that you flashed that is diferent
maybe that image has diferent partition sizes or a diferent install.sh script (maybe)
I will try for sure
and I will check the size of partitions and install.sh script to check diferences
My Notes from the PAST TRY to use eMMC Using Armbian_5.41_S9xxx_Ubuntu_xenial_3.14.29_server_20180225.img.xz
> Not its diferent from youre like I note in above Notes

It seems that was "easy" for you, you just
1) Flash image with Rufus
2) Boot and flash eMMC with install.sh3) Backup Partitions before reboot
4) Reboot with SdCard
5) Restore Backup Partitions
6) Remove SDCard and it boots from eMMC
can you confirm the aboves steps
(thanks in advance)

Hi koakh,
my goal is to replace my raspb3 (webserver and other services)with the same box as you (H96 Pro+)
Could you please post a (if possible) short version what you did to run Armbian on your H96 box? (DTB and Armbian version)
(Wifi is not so important for me)
Did you manage to install armbian on the internal storage?
I think the sd-reader is slower than the raspb3 one. (tested with samsung evo) So I wanted to get armbian running on the internal storage.
thanks for your time
Hello
First I must tell that I stopped at my last requirement step, that is using the eMMC, I started but when I used the scripts it gives problems, like restore the Partitions to a lower size partition (1gb),
I use the sdcard version, until I have spare time or any help, I lost a few hours with this setup now.
Right now I dont have my notes, I'm on phone, but I answear your questions ASAP
About version and dtb I already post here in this topic, please scroll...and how to boot armbian too, use the reset when boot first time. After first armbian boot is not need to use the reset anymore.
If I can help, just ask....no problem its a pleasure
