Tinkerboard S R2.0, patch to disable u-boot console & logo

[SuperMaximus]

@jock I do appreciate your valuable hint regarding 8723ds driver adding in manual kernel compilation, but everytime I do sudo apt full-upgrade eventually I get my driver wiped out from the system.

Could you please advise what should I do in this case to avoid it?
Should I manually patch kernel manually again? 

[jock]

@SuperMaximus don't do full-upgrade until the driver is enabled in mainline armbian. I'm going to do merge the config bits right now, but I don't know when the next kernel update will be upstreamed to armbian repository. Could take days, or weeks. Perhaps @Igor may give a hint about.

 

edit: yet consider that your board is not officially supported, because it is a Tinkerboard S R2.0; I'm not aware about the differences from the regular Tinkerboard S Rev 1.01. Support is best effort.

Sadly can't be more precise about that. I have tested upgrades last week, but system is on POC level.

If this is too much., then please do not remove our logo from your product, ok?

@Igor Not yet:) I am using Tinkerboard to automate a house boiler room so far.
But, nevertheless I just joined the donators as I consider this forum helpful!

I am OK to be Tinkerboard S R2.0 tester to make it fully supported by Armbian.

Then apologise. People usually wants to change boot logo on commercial deployments.

But we don't need that, as we have bugs on the list for several years already.
