tediwildan Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Launched the "overclocked" version on MX10 (rk3328). Installed in eMMC. So far, everything is stable. At first glance, it works faster than with the default u-boot. Full-screen video in the browser from youtube with a resolution of 1080p works almost without brakes (previously I could only play 720p without brakes on this model). There must be a fan, with it the temperature under maximum load does not exceed 55-65 degrees. http://ix.io/2rxgHow about s905x, can you make it too?Sent from my SM-C9000 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am currently testing a performance increase for 3328 and I need volunteers to evaluate the results (how stable it is and how much performance increases). When testing on MVR9 (rk3328), after switching to the "overclocked" version, I get a noticeable increase in performance. Dusted my MX10 and tried to boot focal desktop from https://yadi.sk/d/DSO6euzB3ahemo/ARMBIAN/20.07/20200714-933, unfortunately doesn't boot.

If it is Phantio MX10 it is most likely Allwinner H6 and not rk3328. You may first want to verify this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Updating specialized versions of Armbian for rk3328. The kernel 5.7.8 and u-boot-2020.04 are used. @balbes150 Hi , I noticed their are now two folders with kernel 5.7.8 for rk3328 , one with postfix 763 and one with 933 , could you enlighten us with the purpose of this ? (I guess it has something to do with your speed experiment ). By the way, I have a v88 mini III with rk3328 ( and the ssv6051 wifi you love so much ) , these images boot into desktop from sd with most dtb files for rk3328 , I used 933 Armbian_20.07_Rk3328-tv_focal_current_5.7.8_desktop.img Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usual user Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 For my NanoPC-T4, I want to be able to install multiple kernel versions at the same time and boot a specific one by default. In addition, I would like to be able to select which kernel to start if necessary: Armbian_20.07_Arm-64_focal_dev Boot Options. 1: linux-default 2: 5.8.0-rc4-arm-64 3: 5.8.0-rc3-arm-64 4: 5.8.0-rc2-arm-64 5: 5.8.0-rc1-arm-64 6: linux-test To present my solution, I have used "Armbian_20.07_Arm-64_focal_dev_5.8.0-rc4.img.xz" and "u-boot-rk3399-nanopc-t4.img 07/10/2020 8:50am" on a microSD: Spoiler With Armbian_20.07_Arm-64_focal_dev_5.8.0-rc4 running: First step: prepare kernel versions cd /usr/lib/modules/5.8.0-rc4-arm-64" cp --preserve --recursive /boot/dtb ." cp --preserve /boot/System* . cp --preserve /boot/config* . cp --preserve /boot/zImage . For other kernel versions prepare /usr/lib/modules/<kernel-version> in a similar way in other images and copy /usr/lib/modules/<kernel-version> over. Second step: prepare for dristro-boot mkdir /extlinux Copy the attached extlinux.conf into /extlinux/extlinux.conf over. extlinux.conf The single image dependent value is PARTUUID, "9df910cf" is the one setup by "u-boot-rk3399-nanopc-t4.img 07/10/2020 8:50am". If you are using a different MBR use "blkid" to check out and adjust appropriatly. "ln --symbolic 5.8.0-rc4-arm-64 /usr/lib/modules/linux-default" will determine which kernel will be used by 1: linux-default. "ln --symbolic 5.8.0-rc5-arm-64 /usr/lib/modules/linux-test" is for convenience to pull in e.g. 5.8.0-rc5-arm-64 by 6: linux-test. So flipping linux-default/linux-test changes the used kernel without further intervention. Third step: activate distro-boot Inform uboot to search at the second partition for its configuration: fdisk /dev/mmcblk1 Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.34). Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them. Be careful before using the write command. Command (m for help): a Partition number (1,2, default 2): 2 The bootable flag on partition 2 is enabled now. Command (m for help): w The partition table has been altered. Syncing disks. Reboot and use distro-boot. All copied files do not interfere with the old boot scheme and can coexist. The content of the /usr/lib/modules/<kernel-version> directory is rootfs agnostic, i. e. it can be used in any image where the kernel fit the device. It is even working with Fedora userspace for me. The old boot scheme can be reactivated by disabling the boot flag again (redo third step). With this scheme in place I am able to pull in a new kernel without the need to port over my local image configuration to a new image. If the new kernel is not working as expected all previous available ones are just a reboot away. If the new kernel version is suitable for boot on demand just a new boot stanza in extlinux.conf is nessesary. The mainline uboot for NanoPC-T4 has not yet enabled USB keyboard support. Therefor the on demand selection of a boot option will only work via the serial console keyboard. The build of uboot with the same options in nanopc-t4-rk3399_defconfig as it was done for Pinebook Pro and rockpro64, should probably enable it in a similar way. This means that only HDMI display and USB keyboard are required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the card name is correct. You can use aplay -L to verify the card name in the script. If it still does not work, you can try with alsamixer on the device. -R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbsharpe Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I've managed to install Armbain to EMMC (internal storeage) for the first time (Armbian_20.06.0_Arm-64_focal_dev_5.8.0-rc3_desktop_20200629.img) on my 8/2Gb s905x p201 box by following install-aml-s905-emmc.sh by hand, line by line and it boots reliably from internal flash but with reduced RAM. Can anyone provide a bootloader/uboot for s905x 2Gb as mine is only showing about 800Mb after flashing with /root/u-boot/u-boot-s905/u-boot.img . I'm able to build u-boot source and BayLibre u-boot but no idea what the output does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was working in previous images. 3. As expected with kernel 5.8 CPU Speed and governor is functional now. There is remarkable improvement in controlling SOC temperature at the cost of performance. htop has stopped showing CPU temperature so I had to use lm-sensors. -R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ztrawberry Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I installed the latest focal current 20200723 image and the new locale settings are a disaster. Just because my IP address is from an arabic country all my default locale settings are changed... On this image, you boot straight into root password change. This is a regressive move in my view, just because as an example your IP is from France doesn't mean you speak French etc etc etc. This is almost like websites where you cannot find the option to change your language... armbian-config should be used for this type of change, not a default change you cannot override at 1st boot time. And I know this is not from this image created by you, but please Mr. @balbes150, speak to our comrades at ArmbianHQ to revert :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
