@sfs  This is not a valid submission.  The dtb you reference is not part of the distribution.  So a new user couldn't follow the general installation instructions and get your results.  As was mentioned in the instructions, you need to only use files from the distribution.  You can add comments about how other settings/dtbs/tweeks improved your installation.  Also if you are referencing external code, I would request that you also include or link to source code not the compiled objects (i.e. dts vs. dtb).  That way in the future someone may be able to maintain this addon/feature as changes to the underlying kernel/environment require.

what configuration files you used?

With SD not managed to boot. In the second USB during the start of the download should be empty. Try another USB Flash

Thanks. But the newer version of the images  don't follow  same instructions and u-boot.ext was not working for me. So I started looking for the older image files

That worked perfectly for me. I have installed  it in eMMC and working great. Currently using  it as a headless server for my home network with Adguard and samba  server with External  HDD. USB 3.0 and  Gigabit Ethernet are working great.

Same issues that you had, cannot get it to boot, tried USB sticks and SD-cards, configurations.. Do you have links to the files you used, mainly the old image file? I am also going to use my H96 MAX X3 as a headless server.

@ravijol1  per this information posted above, you can see that (by looking at file sizes) he is using the u-boot-s905x2-s922 boot from the distribution.  If you were to follow the instructions in the FAQ item (https://forum.armbian.com/topic/17106-installation-instructions-for-tv-boxes-with-amlogic-cpus) this is the uboot file that should be used for this cpu.
