Hi people, I need your help, I have been struggling to make this method work (https://github.com/zador-blood-stained/fel-mass-storage or https://github.com/ThomasKaiser/sunxi-armbian-flasher-osx) on the A20 processor for several days, but nothing works, I use Einstein-A20 (https://mega.nz/#F!ZtwxCCJC!AIYHcTqz-ucjuzKnE9qD7A?5xZ3iT4J) and enter the FEL mode using the special button UBOOT_SELECT. I made my own support for this board for uboot (_defconfig, .dts) and compiled u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin (Scroll down). script.bin took from cubietruck. That is, I use the h3 folder, only: zImage, uInitrd, boot.scr Сonnect the board in FEL mode to a virtual machine on VMvare Worstation 12.5.9. Ubuntu Bionic (armbian build system). j @ ubuntu: ~ / fel-mass-storage $ sudo ./start.sh [sudo] password for j: Connect device in FEL mode and press <Enter> 100% [=============================================== =] 4575 kB, 545.8 kB / s 100% [=============================================== =] 47 kB, 478.2 kB / s 100% [=============================================== =] 2230 kB, 548.6 kB / s 100% [=============================================== =] 0 kB, 15.3 kB / s U-boot log: After that, in Windows 10, a device appears with an error in getting the descriptor (USB\VID_0000&PID_0002\5&330350CB&0&5). I have already reread all the topics on the forum related to uploading an image to eMMC, but as a rule, they are addressed to the H3 board. The goal I’m following is to download a previously compiled armbian image to eMMc. With the preliminary partitioning of the file system using LUKS. Perhaps there are some other ways to work with eMMC (without preloading and subsequent transfer from sd card)? Please check files on my Git: https://github.com/evgenyhawk/einstein-a20

Hi All The "real time" kernel patches are included in Igor's Armbian build tools, but are disabled by default. Enabling them are simple. (Thanks Igor) Build "real time" kernel images by doing the following: refer to https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib Execution apt-get -y install git git clone https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib--depth 1 cp lib/compile.sh . mv ./lib/patch/kernel/sun7i-default/0014-patch-3.4.108-rt136.patch.disabled ./lib/patch/kernel/sun7i-default/0014-patch-3.4.108-rt136.patch ./compile.sh Press "Enter" to continue Confirm you are running a RT kernel by checking "uname -a" output for PREEMPT e.g Further reading Benchmark with tar xvfz rt-tests-1.0.tar.gz cd rt-tests make sudo ./cyclictest -p 80 -t5 -n Your feedback on tests are welcomed Enjoy

Nice to see adafruit recommending armbian in his projects: https://learn.adafruit.com/circuitpython-on-orangepi-linux/initial-setup

device: orange pi (any type) os: any orange pi desktop os should be fine reward: $400-900 paypal if swf runs in standalone (must show video proof) I am having issues installing deb package crutziplayer I need it to atleast run on one of the orange pi models, it installs and runs fine but the tough part is getting it to work with a flash plugin libpepflashplayer.so to run an swf, crutziplayer is open source python you can read through the code if you install it, they say its made for Linux mint/Ubuntu maybe not arm architecture but it installs/runs fine on orange pi just the plugin part is the problem. I am not looking for half finished gnash/spark players, I have swf running on chromium for orange pi's but I don't want it from browser, just standalone. Thanks. about crutziplayer: It executes the flash plugin, but uses xcomposite, xfixes and cairo to scale the output from native swf resolution to fullscreen. It's only been tested on Ubuntu 12.04

Hi There! I noticed the EOS for the OrangePi+ and that the OrangePi+ 2 is still supported. Since boards are almost identical, why leave the OrangePi+? And on top of that: when I download the current version, the downloads are the same for both boards.... Or am I missing something?

Hi I have added some drivers in the kernel source code in the cache folder and I am not sure how to rebuild the kernel with the new changes. I am trying to rebuild the mainline kernel. Using compile.sh overwrites the changes with default files. I have changed the following configurations in my config file. KERNEL_ONLY="no" # leave empty to select each time, set to "yes" or "no" to skip dialog prompt 3 KERNEL_CONFIGURE="no" # leave empty to select each time, set to "yes" or "no" to skip dialog prompt 4 CLEAN_LEVEL="" # comma-separated list of clean targets: "make" = make clean for selec 5 # "debs" = delete packages in "./output/debs" for current branch and family, 6 # "alldebs" = delete all packages in "./output/debs", "images" = delete "./output/imag 7 # "cache" = delete "./output/cache", "sources" = delete "./sources" 8 # "oldcache" = remove old cached rootfs except for the newest 8 files 9 10 DEST_LANG="en_US.UTF-8" # sl_SI.UTF-8, en_US.UTF-8 11 12 # advanced 13 KERNEL_KEEP_CONFIG="yes" # do not overwrite kernel config before compilation 14 EXTERNAL="yes" # build and install extra applications and drivers 15 EXTERNAL_NEW="prebuilt" # compile and install or install prebuilt additional packages 16 CREATE_PATCHES="no" # wait that you make changes to uboot and kernel source and creates patches 17 BUILD_ALL="no" # cycle through available boards and make images or kernel/u-boot packages. 18 # set KERNEL_ONLY to "yes" or "no" to build all packages/all images 19 20 BSPFREEZE="" # freeze armbian packages (u-boot, kernel, dtb) 21 INSTALL_HEADERS="" # install kernel headers package 22 LIB_TAG="master" # change to "branchname" to use any branch currently available. 23 CARD_DEVICE="" # device name /dev/sdx of your SD card to burn directly to the card when done I have removed clean so as to make it an incremental build. I am trying to build these changes in tree to test some quick changes.

Hi, With armbian-config i have installed the system into a pendrive (still boots from emmc). I want go back to full emmc system without formating emmc or reinstalling. Any ideas? Sorry for my english

I have been using Armbian with orange pi for a while now, PC+, Zero+ 2 and other H3 models, recently with Armbian 5.59 (also tried 5.62) I have been encountering an issue where WiFi is not properly working, I add WiFi credentials to "/etc/network/interfaces", then reboot, the WiFi is up for a few seconds after booting and DHCP server assigns an IP to the board, then WiFi just goes down again, this is the log on serial interface: Oct 4 18:09:44 localhost wpa_supplicant[1213]: Delete '/run/wpa_supplicant/wlan 0' manually if it is not used anymore Oct 4 18:09:44 localhost wpa_supplicant[1213]: Failed to initialize control int erface '/run/wpa_supplicant'.#012You may have another wpa_supplicant process alr eady running or the file was#012left by an unclean termination of wpa_supplicant in which case you will need#012to manually remove this file before starting wpa _supplicant again.

Hi there, Is there a way to make an automatic switch between AV and HDMI when HDMI connector is connected/disconnected? ie By default AV composite signal is ON, if HDMI is detected while booting, then video and sound are output to HDMI instead of AV/L/R output. I read that if both TV out and HDMI are enable at the same time it can result in artifacts on HDMI and for that reason TV was disabled by default. So is there a way to detect if HDMI is plugged in, and if so disable TV out. I would say it needs 2 .bin files with each config, but how to detect if HDMI is present before loading .bin and load the right .bin according to situation? Also is it possible to rotate display by 90 or 180° ? Would it be possible to have : - by default AV with 180° rotation - if HDMI detected then HDMI without rotation? Thanks! (for H2+/H3 board)

I've tried various methods. None work. What are the recommended Armbian ways to a) enable IPv6 temporary addresses b) disable IPv6 Thank you.

Hi everyone viewing this post, here is the situation.

It appears that btrfs root images built with ROOTFS_TYPE=btrfs are currently broken. E.g., attempting to boot with a btrfs root: Starting kernel ...

Try passing init= bootarg. Rebooting automatically due to panic= boot argument [ 11.978967] reboot: Restarting system INFO: PSCI Affinity Map: This happens with both BRANCH=next and BRANCH=dev builds (4.14 and 4.18). ext4 roots work fine, of course. Interestingly, if you boot an ext4 image on an SD card, and then use armbian-config to flash the image to eMMC using btrfs for the root filesystem, then the same boot problem occurs. Something seems to have broken in terms of btrfs support in the initrd... Any ideas?

Hello, I try to set "channel=acs_survey" in hostapd.conf but this option is not recognized and hostapd can not be started with this. Was hostapd compiled with this option? Or does it come from something else? Thx ps: sorry for my poor English...

I followed instruction of adding overlay at http://linux-sunxi.org/1-Wire This resulted in an error during boot and non functional 1-wire: Removing "#" comments from armbianEnv.txt resolved the issue Can you please confirm if comments are allowed in armbianEnv.txt? Thanks

hi. i am new to armbian and i want to start learning python i use below tutorial but it does't work https://youtu.be/D_N2K2fTH2M any body have other reference for me to install python 3.7.0? i am using orange pi pc. thanks.

Hi, Have Arduino (microcontroller) clone with CH340 USB/UART (USB serial port). Does armbian support it? regards Peter

I need gc2035+vfe_v4l2 module, but the mainline kernel does not support it. So, how to build armbian with legacy kernel?

Hi, Got a bit of a strange situation here. Trying to get H3 I2S working in both playback and capture. Tweaked script.bin and got the I2S0 up and running. Playback in 96K and 192K tested and is ok. Capture though is giving me a headache. When I try to use arecord it does work and generates a wav file but upon playing the file with aplay and although the samplerate (96K or 192K) and channel numbers (Stereo) show ok on screen, the audio result from this recording is always mono and looks that the included samples numer is divided by 2 thus the playback time is shortened accordingly, eg if I record 10 sec, a 5 sec playing time happens. Verified the actual I2S HW lines with digital scope and they are ok with proper time periods/frequency and samplerate or bit depth. So, my question, has anyone any experience with a working I2S in H3 ? Is it actually working or the I2S driver is misbehaving? Is it tested in 96K and 192K capture? Can someone point me to where the pcm script.fex parameters are documented? The official sunxi does not show them.. -> http://linux-sunxi.org/Fex_Guide Christos P.S. Boards tested/used are NanoPi NEO & OrangePi ONE

Now. the whole booting to login position coast 30 sec. I need reduce it to less than 10s(or 15s). Any reference, links, stuffs? Thanks at all !

I have 1 Armbian installed in the SBC. I want to login but I don't have any idea what is the root password. I saw there are few methods of breaking it and can bypass / reset password. I noticed that this method is 1 of the easiest way, but it doesn't work.
