Looked at a lot of other forums posts and it seems to be a common problem for the Orange pi 5B, but all the solutions i've tried hasn't worked. Most of the problems they seemed to have is not updating the armbianEnv.txt to include the "b" for this specific model from the opi 5. Below is the error message I always get whenever trying to boot from the EMMC. Using 6.1 kernel sometimes I can't see the EMMC in /dev, after installing the orange pi Ubuntu image I can see it. After I run armbian-install I can't see it in /dev. I put the orange pi image back on the sd card and I can see the EMMC was installed, the boot/armbianEnv.txt also does have the "b". Using the 6.12 kernel the EMMC in /dev is always there after updating the armbianEnv.txt file though it is blk1 instead of blk0, but after installing it onto the EMMC I still get the same message below and a lot of things don't work like the HDMI. Not sure what else to try, it just doesn't seem to want to load with the emmc.

I have attempted this with the vendor kernels and the mainline kernels, and they both do the same thing. The vendor kernel cannot see the EMMC at all after running updates on it. So that version would kill itself when updated even if it did install and boot off the emmc. The wifi also doesnt work on the mainline, so the options are mainline with no wifi or vendor with no emmc. Install to SD card --> to through setup wizard --> change firmware to 5b instead of 5.--> reboot --> armbian-install --> boot from emmc, system on emmc ---> spends a long time on counting files ---> file transfer screen flashes by in 1 second. --> shutdown ---> boot from emmc. ---> completely dead, the lights on the board never even flash green like they do with an SD inserted This has worked in the past, many many versions ago, but it did not do this when it worked "spends a long time on counting files ---> file transfer screen flashes by in 1 second" Files appear to be there though when mounting the filesystem. Correct uuids in the armbianEnv and fstab I also attempted to just burn it from the sd to the emmc with dd, but that also didnt work How can I load a current version of amrbian onto my emmc for the orange pi 5b?

Rk3588 boards now share the same linuxfamily as rk3568 and rk3566 boards. It means rockchip-rk3588 kernel won't get update longer. Here is some steps for migration: sudo sed -i 's/LINUXFAMILY=rockchip-rk3588/LINUXFAMILY=rk35xx/g' /etc/armbian-release sudo apt update sudo apt install linux-image-legacy-rk35xx linux-dtb-legacy-rk35xx linux-headers-legacy-rk35xx sudo apt remove linux-image-legacy-rockchip-rk3588 linux-dtb-legacy-rockchip-rk3588 linux-headers-legacy-rockchip-rk3588 NOTE: The steps are currently for beta branch only. Don't try on stable branch.

Hello: I am tyring to build the latest version of moonlight-qt (6.0.0). Up until now, I succeded by removing the disable-libdrm and disable-wayland to enable hardware acceleration and use H264, H265 and AV1 all of them through hardware acceleration. However, I get huge decoding times and they are even variable, ranging from 40ms to 300ms depending on what is going on in the streaming. The 4.3.1 version provided by @amazingfate works very good at 4ms decoding time but I would like to test the new AV1 encoder and features from the latest version. What steps should I follow to get it working correctly? Thank you in advance

I have a problem i cant install armbian to orange pi 5b - i change armbianEnv.txt file (change to 5b) and when i use sudo armbian-install and choose 2nd option install mmc installer hangs and saying everything is allright but i cant boot after install without sd card. I have video of this: https://youtu.be/GKfPTD2PKRM Please help

when updating my orange pi 5, I got the following error. What can I do to fix it? ``` update-initramfs: Armbian: Symlinking /boot/uInitrd-5.10.160-legacy-rk35xx to /boot/uInitrd ln: failed to create symbolic link '/boot/uInitrd': Operation not permitted update-initramfs: Symlink failed, moving /boot/uInitrd-5.10.160-legacy-rk35xx to /boot/uInitrd renamed '/boot/uInitrd-5.10.160-legacy-rk35xx' -> '/boot/uInitrd' update-initramfs: Armbian: done. ```

Hello everyone: I own an Orange Pi 5B 16GB. Today I updated from Armbian 24.2.1 to 24.5.1 stable. This new release includes the 6.1 kernel. When I issue the apt upgrade command I correctly get updated to 24.5.1 version but I am still in kernel 5.10. So, in order to be at kernel 6.1, I use armbian-config. The problem is, after doing this and rebooting, the board no longer boots, I dont' get SSH, anything... Another thing that I updated besides armbian itself where sobre libraries like libv4l or libmpp from @amazingfate, before updating those 6.1 kernel switching worked. Any help in how can I debug (like reading UART port) or solve this? Thanks in advance

Hello, everyone. I need a case for the orange pi 5b with compartments for 2 or more 2.5 HDDs. Maybe someone has an stl file for a 3d printer? or a 2D drawing.

I have several orange pi 5B running Armbian Bookworm Cinnamon doing various task and they are working quite well. when i want to check up on a system that was booted without a monitor connected at boot time i get no video output on the HDMI. when reboot with the HDMI connected the HDMI outputs video just fine. Are there any settings i can change so the HDMI will output video if a HDMI monitor is connected it boots with no monitor connected

Configure Orange Pi 5B with Armbian OS so that it displays as a microphone and speaker when connected to a PC via the Type-C port, need to ensure the correct setup of the sound card. When connect Orange Pi 5B to PC via the Type-C port, it should now recognize the Orange Pi as a microphone and speaker. Please provide detail guide and suggest to achieve this setup

I installed the armbian image on an SD card and it runs fine. Now I would like to run it from the EMMC for long term reliability. i tried following what Dara Ó hEidhin did in this thread but am not successful For some reason google drive is not letting me download the driver assistant so RKdrivetool doesn't see the orange pi board like the video referenced in the thread so i cant flash it that way. I tried running it from the SD card and editing the armbianEnv.txt in the /boot folder from fdtfile=rockchip/rk3588s-orangepi-5b.dts to fdtfile=rockchip/rk3588s-orangepi-5b.dts and am able to see the EMMC drive. then i try a sudo armbian-install option 5 to flash the boot looder and option 2 to install to the EMMC but i don't believe the boot loader part is working as i don't see a /boot partition on the EMMC I am sure I am missing something simple but I don't know where to go from here. I don't remember having these problems with armbian for my Orange pi zero plus 2 h5 that I am using for klipper on 3D printer.

I'm trying to enable i2c3 on my orange pi 5b, according to the user manual, i2c is disabled on the 26 header pins by default, and to enable them, you need to edit the /boot/orangepiEnv.txt file, however, my orange pi doesn't have that file. I tried creating a new file and copying the required instructions, then restarted linux, but it still didn't work. Has anyone encountered a similar issue or does anyone know how to resolve this?

Hello, I need your expert help to resolve an issue on my newly purchased orange pi 5b. I was able to install armbian xfce desktop os on emmc but am unable to correctly run a purchased csi mipi camera module (OV13850). Attached are some screen grabs, I do see rk3588-ov13850-c1 appear in overlays row of armbianEnv.txt upon toggling the selection in the armbian-config. Cheese application shows message "There was an error playing video from the webcam" upon opening the application (i also installed flatpak cheese as per some comment in a forum to test). I also tested connecting camera on rk3588-ov13850-c3 but face the same issue. Is there anything I am missing here? Appreciate your feedback, thank you.

Does armbian for orange pi 5b provide headless wifi setup like raspberry pi? on raspberry pi, I can modify the sd card. like `touch ssh` and assign wifi login and password in the .conf to achieve headless wifi setup. I don't have a lan cable, monitor and keyborad to set up.

I apologize in advance if I wrote to the wrong branch. Dear community, a question about OrangePi 5B (board without SPI-flash!). There is only an eMMC on the device. The computer is successfully running on the OS from the Orangepi website, recorded both on the SD card (Baleno Ether) and with eMMC (MaskROM+RKdevtool). At the same time, I see the devices themselves and their partitions, SD card and/or eMMC. The Armbian OS for OrangePi 5/5B/5 Plus (CLI or GUI) written to the SD card loads and works, BUT disk commands DO NOT SEE eMMC, only SD card partitions. In Armbian-config, there is only the Insatall/Update bootloader on SD/eMMC item, which does not change anything. If you write Armbian images to eMMC (MaskROM+RKdevtool), they are successfully recorded, but at startup, no further initramfs loading occurs. If I try to boot from the UEFI-boot (EDK II) located on the SD card, then a cyclic reboot occurs, and when I enter the UEFI-menu, I cannot save the changed settings. As far as I understand, I need to place bootfs of third-party OS on eMMC. Actually, this is the question - how to do it? Ideally, I wanted not to touch eMMC at all, but to boot from a USB HDD/SATA/Flash drive, but this is the second question that cannot be solved without the first one.))) To all those who answered, thank you in advance!)))

Since the specific USB hardware support is now in place, I thought it would be good to discuss pitfalls and remedies for transitioning to a modern kernel. I have now tested the 6.8.5 based Armbian. None of the latest packages (.408 - .411) come up with HDMI output. You have to have a serial console connected, and then correct the problems. 1) This is what you are greeted with: [ 6.828040] panthor fb000000.gpu: [drm] *ERROR* Failed to load firmware image 'mali_csffw.bin' To fix this do apt install armbian-firmware-full and reboot 2) The 8821cu driver has performance problems. Also, the stupid "windows" adapter comes up as a CDROM, and has to be cycled by removing and inserting with its driver loaded, for the wifi to be recognized. These seem minor fixes, firmware repackaging etc... Hopefully we can document results from testing and workarounds in this thread. A big hurray, for Armbian bringing mainstream to OPI 5..... Gullik

i am using armbian 24.2.1 debian bookworm inn orangepi 5b. At first i used sd card to boot. then i wanted to use emmc to boot. so i went to armbian-config and install os in emmc from there from sd card. now it is booting from emmc if the sd card is not connected but if the sd card is connected it is booting from sd card. The worst part is, if i connect a sd card where there is no OS, it will not even boot. How can i set a order like if there is bootable os in emmc boot from there and use the sd card as storage if not boot from sd card ?

I burned the .img file via RkDevTool to eMMC according to the manual, however when I try to upload I get the following error: "Gave up waiting for root file system device. Common problems: - Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline) - Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?) - Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev) ALERT! UUID=cff1be9d-0892... does not exist. Dropping to a shell!" blkid says: /dev/mmcblk1p1: PARTUUID="d0bc2961-01" fsck /dev/mmcblk1p1 says: error 2: no such file or directory cat /proc/cmdline says: root=cff1be9d-0892... rootwait rootfstype=ext4 splash plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles console=ttyS2,1500000 console=tty1 consoleblank=0 loglevel=1 ubootpart=367002d3-1140... usb-storage.quirks= cgroup_enable=cupset cgroup_memory=1 cgroup_enable=memory swapaccount=1 Obviously I should replace "UUID=cff1be9d-0892..." with "d0bc2961-01", but how do I do it from inside the initramfs and which file needs to be edited?

hello, i was trying to set up a 2 pin fan on my orangepi 5b and i connected it to pin 25 and 26 (GND and PWM1). When i first started this task, the output from gpio readall would show me all 26 pins on the board. As i was digging through some forums to try and get the PWM pin to operate as on/off, i came across wiringOP and when i installed it, the output of `gpio readall` changed to only show 8pins. I am unsure of what went wrong and why it only shows 8 pins. I tried removing wiringOP and it still has not made a difference. Thanks

Are there any plans to make a version with the new Rockchip 6.1 kernel available for Orange Pi 5/5+? Joshua Riek seems to have had some success, he even got the Panfork drivers running. I run a headless server though so even without graphics it would be interesting but I use Debian.

Hi, is is possible to port the kahdas-edge2 changes (https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/6335) to the OrangePi 5b device tree?

Since I am interested in the connection ability, I figured the info we gather should go into ONE thread. I have tried to build new kernels, but can only see USB controllers and devices two ports. I have seen a lot of work by Sebasitian Reichel @ Collabora, and his patches, but these do not seem to have the desired result on my test board. Orange PI 5. There seems to be an issue with the port mux, FUSB302, that either connects the last USB to the "vertical" port or to the "USB C" connector. I will comment my findings and attempts to correct this in this thread, and think we could find out where we are if you add your findings, successes and failures, rather than cluttering everywhere Regards, Gullik

I tried for hours last night and I couldn't get a single emulator to work, and most of them simply don't exist for this version of Debian Has anyone had any luck and with what OS

I have managed to install mainline u-boot on my 5B. i copied the 5It boots from both MMC and the SD. To boot from the sd, you have to interrupt the boot process and tell it to boot from MMC0. the default boot order is: mmc1 mmc0 nvme scsi usb pxe dhcp spi I've tried a number of things to correct the issue but none worked. In the aliases section of rk3588s-orangepi-5b.dts, I had to device sdchi as MMC0 (it really is MMC1). Not it boots like it should. Is there a better way to get u-boot to boot from SD card first? Thanks!

Suddenly after updating via armbian-config I lost ssh access and found the port closed. I rewrote the latest armbian version, stuck the sd card in, connected to ethernet cable via router and started up. The red and green lights were on as they should be and the internet cable was flashing green. Waited 3 minutes and checked the ports with nmap. And the port is closed again. Not responding to ping at all. I am still new to this topic. Please help and sorry if the translator translates crookedly.
