BananaPI M1+ boot loop

Hi there! I just received three decommissioned BananaPI M1+ from a company and I'm trying to install the latest version of Armbian Buster available on them. Once I flash the image to the SD card (tested and working fine), however, the board goes into boot loop as per the video. The only error that seems to be displayed is "EHCI failed to shut down host controller". If it can be useful to find the cause, I point out that the problem occurs with both Armbian Buster and Armbian Focal regard

If you can boot the board, you can easily update boot loader and those troubles should be gone. Recovery methods are needed when you can't. 1. sudo armbian-config 2. system -> install -> Install / update the bootloader on SD/eMMC 3. reboot We used to have automated boot loader update, but that brought more problems so we went (years ago) back to manual updating.
