Armbian 24.2.1 Bookworm CLI Kernel: 6.6.16 did not work for me ...

[tamsoftware]

... however Armbian_23.8.1_Helios4_bookworm_current_6.1.50.img.xz worked well and was then upgraded through apt to 24.2.1 / 6.6.16. I was then able to install OMV 7, Plex media server and Transmission on top.

 

warning - the ethernet ports change, breaking scripts where they're hardcoded, e.g the wol service.

 

changing the port in two places in the file and running

systemctl daemon-reload ; systemctl restart helios4-wol

 

seems to be running ok. This details the patch:

I have not been able to get the sys-oled to display however - it is detected ok but only shows gibberish. I tried all models to no avail.

To get the code running, I had to install python3-luma.core and python3-luma.oled.

 

Any ideas? Thanks
