Hello,

 

i prepared a microsd card with the Armbian_5.90_Odroidxu4_Debian_buster_next_4.14.127 image and started my ODROID XU4.

 

However the problem encountered is the failure of the NetworkManager, which of course is  a main service to operate the ODROIDXU4.

 

Sofar ARMBIAN images had been very reliable and stable in the past. The failure of starting the Network Manager  something unusual for ARMBIAN.

 

Enclosed you'll find a error messages. I appreciate very much your help and supporting comments!

 

regards, Ireng

maybe you need to complete your armbian update firstly successful?

if the update isnt complete you maybe have some old network-manager packages which should be updated before the new ones can startup successfully?

This is a new image, downloaded from the website, never been touched (never been upgraded, etc) before, as mentioned in my starting post !

It seams that "good software & support" of the ARMBIAN Distro is something from the past !

Keep in mind that Armbian is a distribution relying on external packages.

If something is broken, it is not necessarily Armbian fault !!!

Not true. Downloading packages from mirrors.dotsrc.org  (as seen on the screenshot) is 100% not a default setting. This can only be changed manually or via armbian-config.

You are not using clean official build and putting a dirt on our work :(:angry:

Thanks for your numerous comments and advice!

 

i downloaded the image from this website. if there are any mirrors involved i did not know, since there was no inform or advice about it!

 

Only the loopback interface was included in /etc/network/interface and no eth0 interface. My Fritzbox showed the ODROIDXU4 in its webinterface, however pining was not successful at all.

 

How should i update the installation without eth0 interface an internet connection ???  By prayer ? By Inspiration ?

 

Please, advice about an URL for downloading a genuine, non corrupted image! Thanks!!

 

best Regards, ireng

Armbian from the download section works, but I can't give my hand into the fire (and can't double check since I am out of office) that Debian Buster is already in a pitch perfect condition. It was tested, also on XU4 ... Try Stretch, try previous version of it. That one was downloaded/installed many many times that we can have some reference point.

 

Possible (weird) explanation:
- your SD/eMMC card is broken, is not overwriting with the new content 

- you are using 3rd party Armbian images

Check this way: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/#how-to-check-download-authenticity

- there is something fundamental wrong with Buster and manifest only on Odroid XU4

I downloaded the stretch image, dd it to a clean, unused micro sd card ===> received the same weird messages, that network interfaces could not be raised and Network Manager failed to rasie the interfaces !

 

I added the eth0 interface to /etc/network/interfaces ---> rebooted the system-----> eth0 interface disappeared!

 

it is such a nuisance !

Now do the same with previous version, used by many many people ... in that case you face hardware issue. Network must work out of the box without altering the configuration.

 

sorry, can't double check by myself.

i am facing the same  problem on my hardkernel ODROID XU4, on my CUBIETRUCK 3...prior to the upgrade everything went fine...since the upgrade ===> DEBIAN 10. Buster its all the mess! I use the same hardware, power supply, etc. nothing changed,..... except the software !

 

The port on the switch is open, the network cable works with my notebook.......

You have been warned that problems with Debian Buster are expected and since you wanted to have it, you have it!

in all cases i use STATIC IP addresses!

 

Stop here. Does your Cubietruck with a fresh image receive address when you boot it up? Free support stops here, commercial starts now:
How do you set IP? You did an upgrade from Debian Stretch to Debian Buster? (we don't recommend that since problems are expected, not in our power to fix and most of users are not able to fix them)

I took "the risk" today and installed my fresh compiled Armbian_5.91_Orangepipc2_Debian_buster_dev_5.2.0

on my OPi PC2 ;)

 

I has the same issue with the NetworkManager wait online :(

[FAILED] Failed to start Network Manager Wait Online.
See 'systemctl status NetworkManager-wait-online.servce' for details.

So (as I always do) deconfigured the network-manager.

 

First I did try to configure eth0 via armbian-config, but armbian-config did enter the ip-data in /etc/network/interfaces

to the device lo and not for eth0 :(

Booting with only lo-device  configured took a long time because of the PC2 couldnt raise eth0/network:

A start job is running for Raise network interfaces

 

So I edited this manually via nano to eth0 and rebooted.

 

Now the network could raise up fine and fast :)

 

@igor So the OPi PC2 is also a H5 device - maybe the non-booting H5/A64 devices the last days suffer from starting fine the network and only seems to doesnt boot?

Possible. Strange is that it was working for me without a problem ... damn.

I got the same NetworkManager-issue at this moment with the freshly compiled image for a NanoPi K1 Plus :(

After reconfiguration like my Opi PC2 is also do work now - without Network-Manager - fine.

It has to work with :) Can you rebuild with deleting rootfs cache? And by using NEXT kernel.

 

I checked on the only hardware I have around (Nano PC T4) and Debian Buster image, made from sources and with rootfs cache that is downloaded from our servers, works perfectly fine.

How do I delete the rootfs-cache?

(and it doesnt have anything to do with these values we have to accept for getting actual buster packages?)

remove from build/cache/rootfs

 

and also build with option 

ROOT_FS_CREATE_ONLY=force

That's a good sign and "only" images rebuilding with up2date rootfs will be needed. Can someone check Odroid XU4 to have a check on 32bit userland? Without using cached fs.

Did try to compile for the NanoPi K1 Plus with the clean rootfs-cache option and now I do get this error-message :(

[EDIT] after some more retries it did work again :)

The compile did work again - BUT I had for the PC2 the same NetworkManager Error.....

Also the new compiled image for NanoPi K1 Plus does have - for me - the NetworkManager Error :(
