Wifi works, but ethernet seems buggy like on recent arm64 images (kernel 5.X pb with current dtbs ?). I didn't test it, but the connection was activated whereas no cable... System halts instead of reboot. can you show check the wired network with the latest 5.7.2 image ?
balbes150 Posted June 16, 2020 Author Posted June 16, 2020 Test version 20200616-dev with 5.8-rc1 core (without adding patches). On UM3, can see not only the eMMC itself, but also the MTD sections from the firmware.

Hello balbes150 , I do have a rkm802IV ( the 'old' model )stick , I can boot the old linuxium linux image from sd , (from this post http://www.linuxium.com.au/how-tos/tastytreats ) . Because it's almost 10 years ago my memory of what I read and did has become a bit rusty so I downloaded this image again and burned it to sd using balenaEtcher on Debian and indeed it booted immediately. I tried a few of your 32 images the same way ,burned them to sd but they won't boot . ( Armbian_20.05.6_Arm-32_focal_current_5.4.43_desktop_20200604.img and Armbian_20.05.6_Arm-32_focal_current_5.7.2_desktop_20200613.img ) ,the system boots to android nand .Then I tried to flash the bootloader from your link using rkAndroidtool under windows 10 ,but that was refused by the program .(check chip not ok) , well .it's a rk3188 so it refuses a rk3288 loader . In the past I read a lot of linuxium's posts and he had many solutions for booting . Not all these posts exist anymore , google+ has dissappeared so it's a bit tricky finding everything back .The next few days I'll try to refresh my knowledge .(I don't know what happened here but i've gone Italic !!) 1

My images use u-boot-2020 (for rk3288), it only works if there is no u-boot in eMMC\NAND. Rk3188 needs its own version of u-boot-2020 (I don't have this option yet). But there is also good news, when performing a number of manual steps, it turned out to run the core 5 on rk3188 (but without HDMI output, network, etc.), there is only the inclusion of indicators and reaction to the combination CNTR+ALT+DEL (the system reboots).

balbes150 Posted June 24, 2020 Author Posted June 24, 2020 Good news. Using sources with patches from knaerzche, it was possible to get the initial launch of the kernel 5 with an HDMI output for rk3188 (Ugoos UT2). Now I can see what messages the kernel gives out and I can move on, add the necessary options and Initrd for a full start of the system. 1
balbes150 Posted June 24, 2020 Author Posted June 24, 2020 Good news. It turned out to fully launch Armbian with core 5 on Ugoos UT2 (rk3188) from an SD card. Question. Are there users with models running on the rk3188 platform ? 1
balbes150 Posted June 25, 2020 Author Posted June 25, 2020 Version 20200625 with the legacy 5.6 kernel.

balbes150 Posted June 29, 2020 Author Posted June 29, 2020 Test image for rk3188 Download, unpack and burn the ArmbianTV image to your SD card. Connect to the TV box and turn on the power. The system will start automatically. https://yadi.sk/d/YXA09tNfyRhDIw 2
balbes150 Posted June 30, 2020 Author Posted June 30, 2020 ver 20200629-dev (for rk3288) I recommend the Bullseye version for desktop.

Connect to the TV box and turn on the power.

I did change the uEnv.txt file in the Boot directory to use the radxarock dtb file ,you did not mention that , but it made no difference. I also noted some boot-z img files in the yandex archive ( boot-z-rock.img ) , are they needed in some way? radxarock images usually boot on the mk802IV also. Some elementary booting did happen ,because android from Nand didn't start ,but my HDMI monitor stayed black , there was no signal. Edited July 1, 2020 by Virverus more clear what img i'm talking about

Thank you for your answer ,this clarifies a lot , I'll wait for a rk3188 version then .

This is a set of files to replace the core+DTB in the image. Because of the old u-boot, have to use the binary bundle kernel+DTB+initrd, processed by a special utility. And to replace the DTB, you have to rewrite the entire block. To do this, use the command dd if=boot-z-XXXX of=/dev/SD_CARD seek=24576 11 hours ago, Virverus said: Some elementary booting did happen ,because android from Nand didn't start ,but my HDMI monitor stayed black , there was no signal. Have you looked at the router to see if there are new devices on the network or not ? If HDMI does not work, you will be able to connect via SSH if you start successfully. HDMI behavior may be affected by the startup process. I completely erase NAND on UT2 with a utility from PC and when starting from SD card only u-boot and parametr from SD card are used. I have HDMI running (only console, no DE) with all boot-z options, but the LAN only works with the core for UT2. Old Radxa Rock images work the same way without problems with HDMI to UT2. So I think UT2 uses the same 66121 chip as Rock. Log start focal to Ugoos UT2 kernel 5.6 http://ix.io/2qCM
Virverus Posted July 1, 2020 Posted July 1, 2020 @balbes150 Hi , I managed to solder a uart interface to my android stick and reflashed your bulseye rk3188 test image to my sd card this is the serial output: DR Version 1.04 20130517 In 3 3 DDR3 222MHz Bus Width=32 Col=10 Bank=8 Row=16 CS=1 Die Bus-Width=8 Size=2048MB Memory OK OUT BUILD=====3 SdmmcInit=0 0 FwPartOffset=2000 , 0 run on sd0 OK! 15747 unsigned!

Virverus Posted July 2, 2020 Posted July 2, 2020 @balbes150 Hi. To rule things out I reformatted my sd card as recommended in Getting Started on the Armbian website and burned a fresh bulseye test image . It made no difference . I also dd'd as you explained the sd with boot-z-ut2.img and boot-z-cs968.img and boot-z-rock.img ,the uart output stayed more or less the same but I also tried an usb-stick and sd and usb combined , although the results stayed the same I sometimes noticed disk activity (burning led) on my usb stick , which means the device was not completely locked up ,although there was no serial output , it probed the usb stick . So I searched for log files and found 2 new files in /var/log : armbian-hardware-monitor.log and armbian-ramlog.log . These files where only created when I booted your unaltered image or with the boot-z-rock.img ,with the other 2 dtb's cs968 and z-ut2 these files where not created.I tested this several times.Also sometimes after a while on uart showed a long string of hooked zero's like this: [00][00][00][00]........etc..This also happens with serial output text when you choose the wrong baudrate , then all your output shows as hooked zeros.So it seems the rock dtb image does boot in armbian but somehow the uart and hdmi interfaces are corrupted . armbian-hardware-monitor.log : ### Activated 1 lzo zram swap devices with 1000 MB each ### Activated Armbian ramlog partition with zstd compression ### Activated lzo compressed /tmp armbian-ramlog.log : Mounting /dev/zram0 as /var/log/ Mon Jun 29 17:40:11 UTC 2020: Loading logs from storage sending incremental file list alternatives.log armbian-hardware-monitor.log bootstrap.log btmp dpkg.log faillog fontconfig.log lastlog wtmp apt/ apt/history.log apt/term.log chrony/ cups/ journal/ openvpn/ runit/ runit/ssh/ speech-dispatcher/ sysstat/ unattended-upgrades/ sent 969,578 bytes received 273 bytes 1,939,702.00 bytes/sec total size is 968,132 speedup is 1.00 These are the files created on the first run with a fresh unaltered image. Perhaps it's possible to get in armbian through ssh , but I have never worked with ssh so that's complete new territory for me .

balbes150 Posted July 2, 2020 Author Posted July 2, 2020 Can you pull the parameters file from the SD card (which runs with the UART log)? Command to get dd if=/dev/SD_CARD of=parametr.img skip=8192 count=2

balbes150 Posted July 2, 2020 Author Posted July 2, 2020 In the log I see that 66121 is used on this model, I think HDMI should work (with the correct DTB parameters). 0.947429] IT66121 probe success.

I'm not the developer of these images ,that's balbes150 , I'm just the consumer and I did not even boot succesfully into a desktop (!), so why ask me?
