xaja34 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Orange Pi 5 plus. It seems that in the 'edge' kernels, ssh is disabled by default. Since HDMI doesn't function this is a problem. I used the debugging UART and after setup I got the message "ssh.service is disabled" I enabled the service and all is well. Any reason why ssh would be disabled? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 moved ssh is enabled by default on all images. Check if there is further information in journal why it did not start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xaja34 Posted April 18 Author Share Posted April 18 Here is the partial boot log Starting ssh.service - OpenBSD Secure Shell server... sshd: no hostkeys available -- exiting. ssh.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE ssh.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'. Failed to start ssh.service - OpenBSD Secure Shell server. ssh.service: Scheduled restart job, restart counter is at 1. Starting ssh.service - OpenBSD Secure Shell server... sshd: no hostkeys available -- exiting. Not sure what to do as keys have not been generated yet. Thanks, Bill 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 have you tried to run dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server so a fresh bunch of keys is being generated? Seems like for some reason key generation fails on first boot.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xaja34 Posted April 18 Author Share Posted April 18 After first boot and initial setup and login, I can enable and start the openssh server with no problem. I'm not sure how generating a set of new keys would help. This happens with numerous images. Armbian_24.5.0-trunk.429_Orangepi5-plus_trixie_edge_6.8.6_minimal.img Armbian_24.5.0-trunk.429_Orangepi5-plus_trixie_vendor_6.1.43_minimal.img Among others. Legacy image with 5.10.160 kernel does not have this problem Regards Bill 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xaja34 Posted April 18 Author Share Posted April 18 Werner Looks like it's just trixie. built an image with Bookworm (bookworm_edge_6.8.7_minimal) and works with no issues so far Bill 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Ah okay. Trixie is an unsupported userspace anyways. So this might be fixed at some point on the way when it reaches stable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Schirrmeister Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 A while ago I debugged the ssh problem and added some comments in this thread here. I don't remember if I used bookworm or trixie. Seems to me a timing issue or in which order things start. For now, whenever I do some dev work, I just do either another reboot after the first setup or restart the sshd service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
