Recommended Posts

Posted

As Caution-Information:

Today I updated a NanoPi Neo 2 v1.1 with armbian bullseye bleeding edge-kernel-setting via

apt update/upgrade from Kernel 5.19.16 to 6.0.10 (also from armbian 22.08 to armbian 22.11.1)

and had a no-boot after restart :(

The problem was (the system did work fine before incl. restart etc), that the file

/boot/dtb/allwinner/sun50i-h5-nanopi-neo2-v1.1.dtb

was missing - and also the complete directory 

/boot/dtb/allwinner/overlay/

including 

/boot/dtb/allwinner/overlay/sun50i-h5-usbhost1.dtbo

/boot/dtb/allwinner/overlay/sun50i-h5-usbhost2.dtbo

/boot/dtb/allwinner/overlay/sun50i-h5-fixup.scr

was also mising :(

 

I had to open my silver-Neo2-NAS-case, extract the SDCard and copy this file and directory from ym other Neo2 (under kernel 5.19.16) over to the SDcard from ym Neo 2 v1.1

 

So I dont know if I get the same problem, when I try to update my 2 Neo 2 v1.0 :(

 

Anyone else had bootup-lockup(s) after the 22.11 update?

Good afternoon dear guru.
I am developing devices for myself, including drawing printed circuit boards myself, now I have a question about how to output multi-channel sound from Armbian nano pi neo and how to create an overlay correctly, I saw that you made an overlay for a 5102 chip and it works. I would like to enable tdm support. Another question, could you please indicate how it would be correct to create a file for Alsa audio so that it would be possible to output three stereo streams simultaneously to the DAC. I will be very grateful to you for your answer. Have a nice day

Today I had the same problem with my two Neo2 v1.0 :(

After Update/Reboot the director /boot/dtb/allwinner/overlay was completly missing for dtb-6.0.10-sunxi64

(and the directory /boot/dtb-6.0.10-sunxi64/allwinner/ has only -dtb files from the end of Noveber (maybe they are right))

 

But Iam was in the lucky case that my NanoPi A64 had upgraded successfully to 6.0.10 and all the dtb-files including the overlay-folde for 6.0.10 was there.

So I copied these files over to /boot/dtb/allwinner (symbolic link dtb => dtb-6.0.10-sunxi64) and

by restarting the Neo2 v1.0 did boot again, because of the missing overlays .dtbo/.scr the Neo2 V1.0 wasnt booting only to emergency mode

:(

 

If anyone need the dtb-directory for sunxi64 and Kernel 6.0.10 I will attach they here at this thread.

 

I dont know whats the difference between the Neo2 and the NanoPi A64 (both sunxi64).

The upgrade to 6.0.10 did also work fine on a Orange Pi Zero (sunxi only)

Please roll back to kernel 5.19.
Wait a few days. There will be a working 6.1 kernel.
Work in progress.

The Kernel 6.0.10 is working for me here.

Only got the problems with the not installed DTBs/Overlays - the Neo2 DTBs/Overlays I copied out of the NanoPi A64 install with Kernel 6.0.10

With 6.0.10 I can wait for 6.1 to come ;)
