Thank you very much.

There are no pre-made Armbian images yet. However you can make your own using the build framework: https://github.com/armbian/build

last image burned my ethernet port 😐
installed apt-get update / apt-get upgrade / reboot
and it stopped linking to my router even with static IP
tried my last ubuntu image and it's still not working

Moved to rockchip forum as this is not an Allwinner board

Is it possible apt update/armbian-config flashed my SPI flash and that's why i have such issues ?

[linhz0hz]

As a datapoint, I tried one of the archive images and it booted successfully (bookwork edge 6.5.2 xfce) on my sd card. However when I attempted armbian-config install to NVMe (with bootloader written to MTD of course) it did not boot.

Thanks for the image, I'm using the November 30 2023 release (Bookworm Kernel 6.6); everything is working fine except ethernet port:

- router shows a bunch of RX FCS errors, after some hours it's getting disconnect but works back if disconnect and reconnect cable
- I'm using two VLANs and for some reason packets always goes trough both VLANs, ignoring the routing table metric

 

Using it for SMB and Emby with external HDD (via USB 3.0) and it's working good.

Hi,

 

I saw the debian CLI release, but was looking for the Ubuntu 22.04 CLI release.  So I tried to build my own (1st time) and when I got as far as the Armbian menu to choose the board, I didn't see the Orange Pi 3b in the list.  I checked github and could see it listed here

 

https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/config/boards/orangepi3b.csc

 

Not sure if this is what is used during the compile...

 

I also noted that Joshua Reik is going to start building for this board under his latest commits

 

Comparing v1.32...main · Joshua-Riek/ubuntu-rockchip (github.com)

 

Hopefully this will bring this board onto  Standard support soon.  It seems like a great price / performance SBC.

 

@magus  What ethernet issues are you getting?  Does it not work at all or just some times?
