I downloaded and wrote the image to the SD card. I can see the U-Boot messages at the very beginning, but after a few moments, nothing is displayed anymore. I believe the OS is still booting because the activity LED on the board keeps blinking. Any idea what might be happening ? Thanks in advance for any help !

Hi, guys. I'm using the last Armbian Cubieboard image (Armbian_23.11.1_Cubieboard_bookworm_current_6.1.63.img.xz) on my "Gemei G9" Allwinner A10 tablet. But via serial/UART the boot process stuck forever in "Starting kernel ...". Any tips on how to get the kernel to start? Thanks in advance Here is my boot log: U-Boot SPL 2023.10-armbian (Oct 13 2023 - 22:19:41 +0000) DRAM: 1024 MiB CPU: 1008000000Hz, AXI/AHB/APB: 3/2/2 Trying to boot from MMC1 ns16550_serial serial@1c28000: pinctrl_select_state_full: uclass_get_device_by_phandle_id: err=-19 U-Boot 2023.10-armbian (Oct 13 2023 - 22:19:41 +0000) Allwinner Technology CPU: Allwinner A10 (SUN4I) Model: Cubietech Cubieboard DRAM: 1 GiB Core: 68 devices, 23 uclasses, devicetree: separate WDT: Not starting watchdog@1c20c90 MMC: mmc@1c0f000: 0 Loading Environment from FAT...
