Thank you @Hqnicolas,  4g32g img did not work for me. I had no debug tool, so I don't know what're the blockers.

But I tried to install retroarch in armbian, and load the cores from https://github.com/christianhaitian/retroarch-cores, it works for me.

Can you share your experience?
I literally downloaded the 32gb image to test and everything went fine, google didn't corrupt the file "yet"

You're talking about this kernel 6.6 images?

 

the image contains many built-in features, such as kodi and internet game archive with retroarch android emulator and Windows emulator

Hello, fellow H96 musers.

I've just acquired a 4G/32G H96 Max V56, and tried to flash an image that works on an earlier 8G/64G H96 Max V56, using the appropriate 4G booloader rather than the one I used for the 8G.

The HAOS image boots fine, but everything about the Ethernet and WiFi must be wrong, as I have no networking hardware configured.

I'm curious to know if there are differences between the 4G/32G board and the 8G/64G, other than eMMC size, that might account for the above outcome?

There was some early mention of 'type 1' and 'type 2' 4G/32G boards early on in this thread. Could I be using an inappropriate device tree source configuration for my 4G/32G board?

If that's not it, then the only other thing I can think of, is that the 4G/32G board I recently acquired has different WiFi/Bluetooth and Ethernet chips fitted, and the drivers from my 8G/64G build aren't suited?

8G/64G H96 Max V56

PCB: LP6E27116A0

Wifi/BT: HC16335, S3144335

Ethernet: Realtek, RTL8211

 

4G/32G H96 Max V56

PCB: LS6E28533A0

Wifi/BT: SKI.WB800D80S.1_D40, 2023AP20230(M)

Ethernet: Maxio, MAE0621A-02C

Thoughts, board type clarification, or driver suggestions, anyone?

p.s. If anyone has the stock rom for this box I'd be entirely grateful. Through absent mindedness, I foolishly didn't preserve mine.
