Hello ,
I'm new to Armbian, I'm trying to create an SD image for an Olimex A13 Som card (https://www.olimex.com/Products/SOM/A13/A13-SOM-512/) + A13 Som WIfi (https: //www.olimex.com/Products/SOM/A13/A13-SOM-WIFI/open-source-hardware). After successfully executing the build and transferring the image to SD with Etcher, the boot starts correctly but hangs on Starting Kernel ...
Do you have any idea how to solve the problem?
Thanks in advance!

Board: Not on the list

This is usually the symptom of wrong DT.

Also, make sure to have "verbosity=7" and "console=serial" and use USB-TTL Serial Debug to look the details of boot process.

Thanks for the reply,
I tried again to make a build but the result is always the same!
I noticed, however, that the card that is called from the config file is Model: Olimex A13-Olinuxino
and at the start there is an error!
U-Boot SPL 2019.04-armbian (Apr 17 2019 - 17:05:21 +0200)
DRAM: 512 MiB
Failed to set core voltage! Can't set CPU frequency
Trying to boot from MMC1
I have not made any changes I have only set Olimex A13 Som as the type of card ... is there a problem with the DT of origin?
I searched a bit in the various folders and I don't see any other references to the SOM A13 but only to the A13 olinuxino and olinuxino micro board.

 

The boot log:

I don't think this error is the source of the problem.

Unfortunately, searching in the forum did not reveal any people getting success with this Olimex A13 Som.

Since I don't have such board, I can't even trying it myself ...

Your chances are tiny, maybe you should stick with Legacy image provided by Olimex.

Unfortunately I had also tried a solution on the forum but with a negative result.
I will try to experiment the same in case I have to come to a solution I will put it here at the disposal of the community.
Thanks anyway for the answers Martinayotte. Thanks to the Armbian team for the wonderful job.
