Werner Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 armbianmonitor -u Either there are additional usb ports available via GPIO or some other components - whatever it may be - are connected internally via USB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply because there is nothing wrong if they are (on this particular board) and it would require either a test or seeing documentation to be able to know which to enable.

It's just my lack of insight on hardware level (gpio, low level boot sequence, how components connect etc) appears, never had to go deeper than simple minicom. What's an MR?
