Wrong Image linked in /boot when updated after upgrade from 4.4 to 5.10 kernel

I originally installed Armbian witk Kernel 4.4 on my Nanopi.m4 and later upgraded it to 5.10 via armbian-config. Things work fine but whenever I got a new update via  apt update, things get messed up a bit 

 

the /boot/Image got linked to vmlinux-4.4.213-rk3399 instead of vmlinuz-5.10.35-rockchip64 

while others 

uInitrd -> uInitrd-5.10.35-rockchip64

dtb -> dtb-5.10.35-rockchip64

 

The result's the board couldn't boot-up, when I restarted it. And, I need to correct the Image -> vmlinuz-5.10.35-rockchip64 and doing mkimage -C none -A arm -T script -d boot.cmd boot.scr from another linux machine to the SDCard.

It  works fine afterward but I wondered if there is the right way to fix this issue for good. 

 

Thank you,

So you used the switch kernel feature, correct?

Yes, that is correct.

Maybe there is an issue with switching to a different board family which is usually not the case

From armbian-config -> System -> Other, here are the options I'm seeing

 

linux-image-current-rockchip64=21.02. 5.10.21-rockchip64

…

linux-image-dev-rockchip64=21.02.2 … 5.10.16-rockchip64

…

linux-image-legacy-rk3399=21.05.1 … 4.4.213-rk3399

 

I don't see an option of rk3399 with 5.x kernel. 

 

Do you know which dtb it's for those with 5.x kernel from the Download page:
