This issue is about Nanopi M6 model without LCD, but there is no tag for Nanopi M6, even though it has Platinum support, so I had to set nanopi-r6c tag. The Ethernet interface can't receive settings from DHCP with errors: [ 12.894724] rk_gmac-dwmac fe1c0000.ethernet: IRQ eth_lpi not found [ 12.894866] rk_gmac-dwmac fe1c0000.ethernet: Looking up phy-supply from device tree [ 12.894876] rk_gmac-dwmac fe1c0000.ethernet: Looking up phy-supply property in node /ethernet@fe1c0000 failed [ 12.894892] rk_gmac-dwmac fe1c0000.ethernet: supply phy not found, using dummy regulator [ 12.894948] rk_gmac-dwmac fe1c0000.ethernet: clock input or output?

I saw someone using ZFS on their Netgate hardware and their eMMC fails in a year. Would BTRFS significantly shorten lifespan of eMMC/SD card, like ZFS does?

I see from photos of the FriendlyElec metal case (without display) for the NanoPi M6 that there appear to be two holes for wifi antennas. Does anyone know if the optional wifi card sold by FriendlyElec comes with antennas? If not, are they a standard size which I can buy somewhere else?
