Hi,
New to this forum. Hope someone can please assist.
I recently purchased a tiny 5" display UMPC device.
See instagram/puterpi for photos. There's also YouTube video of it in action by maker too.
I installed Armbian image:

Overall, works great. However, I periodically get the following error message at boot up in console and device will not boot up. Only fix I have now is to res-install image file.
missing environment variable: boot file

The error message is obviously about ethernet coonection. I use a USB hub with ethernet port to get ethernet connection. It has worked OK.
Error has occurred only after some restarts. Have not figured why it occurs after some shutdowns and then restarts. But when it occurs, i have not been able to bypass error and continue to boot up.
Thank you for any advice.
