I am running a headless Bananapipro server that acts as an AP. Recently I found that its WiFi net was gone. In the log I found a crash of brcm: Dec 19 02:40:14 localhost kernel: [3919907.052132] ieee80211 phy0: brcmf_fw_crashed: Firmware has halted or crashed Dec 19 02:40:15 localhost kernel: [3919908.004319] ieee80211 phy0: brcmf_fil_cmd_data: bus is down. we have nothing to do.

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?

Hi all, First post here. I have been running Armbian on my original Bananapi Pro for a long while now, and thought that it's time to upgrade from Bullseye to Bookworm finally. There were some complications with UsrMerge that I had to resolve manually (I think some boot files from the original Buster installation were both in /lib and /usr/lib), but apart from that the upgrade appears to have worked: All userspace stuff is on Bookworm. # lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Debian Description: Armbian 24.5.0-trunk.530 bookworm Release: 12 Codename: bookworm However, the kernel seems to be stuck on 5.15: # uname -a Linux bananapi 5.15.43-sunxi #22.05.1 SMP Sat May 28 08:17:47 UTC 2022 armv7l GNU/Linux This version number appears to be inconsistent with the contents of armbian-image-release: # cat /etc/armbian-image-release # PLEASE DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BOARD=bananapipro BOARD_NAME="Banana Pi Pro" BOARDFAMILY=sun7i BUILD_REPOSITORY_URL=https://github.com/armbian/build BUILD_REPOSITORY_COMMIT=85080ff3 VERSION=5.99.191113 LINUXFAMILY=sunxi BRANCH=dev ARCH=arm IMAGE_TYPE=nightly BOARD_TYPE=eos INITRD_ARCH=arm KERNEL_IMAGE_TYPE=zImage IMAGE_UUID=1b7fd79e-803f-4438-8b4c-5e9287a7b86c I saw on the download page that a current download of Armbian Bookwork for the Bananapi Pro would include Kernel 6.6.29, so there should be a newer kernel available. Can you help me troubleshooting what is holding my system back from upgrading to a newer kernel? Various posts on the forum suggest anything from "apt-get upgrade will update your kernel" to "use armbian-config". Using the latter, I tried switch between nightly and stable, which didn't offer any updated kernel to apt. The "Switch to other kernels" option retrieves some files, then shows the "Yes, I understand" screen but then immediately goes back to the main "System settings" screen, which makes me think that something is broken here. How can I find out what exactly is broken?

For a long time, for more than three years, I did not use my BananapiPro board. And recently I decided to launch it again.I downloaded new Armbian image distribution. But the system when loading gives out an error. After the initialization of the devices, a message appears: Device 0: unknown device ethernet@1c50000 Waiting for PHY auto negotiation to complete......... done Speed: 100, full duplex BOOTP broadcast 1 DHCP client bound to address 192.168.2.200 (5ms) *** Warning: no boot file name: using 'COA802c8.img' Using ethernet@1c50000 device TFTP from server 192.168.2.1; our IP address is 192.169.2.200 Filename 'COA802C8.img'.

I tried to record the image with different programs and dd from console. Also I use three different sd cards. I also tried the old images from the archive, but the situation is repeated. And the old images from 2019 have not been found. Does that mean that new images are not supported by my board? Did it be broken?

Hi, I add a custom repository in customize-image.sh by echoing it in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/custom.list and then calling apt-get update when i build i get always the following error: [💲|🔨] Ign:1 http://apt.customrepo.com bookworm InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:2 http://security.debian.org bookworm-security InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:3 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:4 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:5 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-backports InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:1 http://apt.customrepo.com bookworm InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:2 http://security.debian.org bookworm-security InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:3 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:4 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:5 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-backports InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:1 http://apt.customrepo.com bookworm InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:2 http://security.debian.org bookworm-security InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:3 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:4 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates InRelease [💲|🔨] Ign:5 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-backports InRelease [💲|🔨] Err:2 http://security.debian.org bookworm-security InRelease [💲|🔨] System error resolving 'security.debian.org:http' - getaddrinfo (16: Device or resource busy) [💲|🔨] Err:1 http://apt.customrepo.com bookworm InRelease [💲|🔨] System error resolving 'apt.customrepo.com' - getaddrinfo (16: Device or resource busy) [💲|🔨] Err:3 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm InRelease [💲|🔨] System error resolving 'deb.debian.org:http' - getaddrinfo (16: Device or resource busy) [💲|🔨] Err:4 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates InRelease [💲|🔨] System error resolving 'deb.debian.org:http' - getaddrinfo (16: Device or resource busy) [💲|🔨] Err:5 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-backports InRelease [💲|🔨] System error resolving 'deb.debian.org:http' - getaddrinfo (16: Device or resource busy) [💲|🔨] Reading package lists...

Hi! I have banana pro, 5.15.93-sunxi #23.02.2 (bullseye), and use internal wifi adapter as a wifi client. The medium btw my client and ap is instable, there are frequent rate changes (6Mbps...54Mbps), so in order to get rid of it I need to set mandatory wifi rate no more than 6 Mbps. Give me the hint, please: 1. To set wifi rate strictly to 6 Mbps. I had tried iwconfig wlan0 rate 6M - I got "Error for wireless request "Set Bit Rate" (8B20) : SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported." . 2. To adjust 802.11n parameters (rate, number of spatial streams and so on). Thank you in advance, Aleksei

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?

Hello, despite using several threads (links below) and one whole week of work, either nothing or only backlight of my display work. Could anybody provide the forum with an image or .debs, please? Or step by step tutorial (adapting existing tutorials) didn't work for me.

Hi to all, I have been using banana pi pro and m1 for some years as mini PBX with asterisk, due the stop of bananian's development that works perfectly but now is obsolete and vulnerable, i'm testing armbian but registered prompt audio sounds choppy and i can't find reasons, I tried to move files in ram disk, use usb to lan interface, increase process priority, use performance ad cpu governor, also tried Armbian 5.83 Bananapi Debian stretch next, same problem. Any suggestion ? Thanks advance.

Installed the Armbian distribution on 05.22 Jammy. In other distributions armbian, zombies are similar. Does not complete the shutdown -P. Instead of disconnecting - a kernel panic. In other distributions, the completion of work is correct. What to do? armbianmonitor -u : http://ix.io/43ZK Error: https://freeimage.host/i/wa9cWF

I've got one of these boards. It is just Kernel development that has ceased as there are no maintainers? (Had I had the skills, I would have happily maintained it. ;-( ) Also, to get the latest Kernel later on, is it as simple as obtaining the official sources and then compiling (or cross-compiling to ARM) and then install the Kernel? On this one I'm a bit like a duck out of water and if anyone can point me along the right path, all help will be greatly appreciated.
