Difference between Armbian 24.5.0 6.1.xx vendor and 24.5.0 6.9.xx edge ???

It seems like the Radxa Rock5B has been downgraded from standard support to community support for the image downloads but not (yet) for the forum.

 

Are the vendor images for the RK3588 and the 6.8.x images the same except for the kernel?

(Can I expect to just replace the kernel to switch from the vendor image to the edge image.)

Yes. Both kernels vendor and edge have pros and cons.

Usually switching is possible via armbian-config.

Conclusion:

the only kernels you can switch between with armbian-config are the 5.10 legacy and the 6.1 vendor kernels with the current setup.

 

You did mention "Usually", but basically I guess the "armbian-config" and "exchanging kernels" route only is only recommended with "standard support".

There is much which can go wrong and I did end up reinstalling (starting from SD is no guarantee your NVME is not ending screwed up).
