I installed Debian 12 (Bookworm)XFCE from the official Armbian website onto the NVME SSD of the board. Everything works fine except the 4 hard drives that are connected to boards SATA connectors. They do appear and work when i boot into the Debian provided by Radxa, so I know hardware isn't an issue. I think that they also worked during the very first boot of the system but after ``` apt update && apt upgrade ``` and reboot, they stop working. Any advice would be much appreciated. ``` rock-5-itx:~$ lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS mtdblock0 31:0 0 16M 0 disk mmcblk0 179:0 0 7.3G 0 disk mmcblk0boot0 179:32 0 4M 1 disk mmcblk0boot1 179:64 0 4M 1 disk zram0 252:0 0 11.6G 0 disk [SWAP] zram1 252:1 0 50M 0 disk /var/log zram2 252:2 0 0B 0 disk nvme0n1 259:0 0 476.9G 0 disk └─nvme0n1p1 259:1 0 472.1G 0 part /var/log.hdd / ``` https://paste.armbian.com/qiwimusofo

Logs excerpts are usually useless. Provide logs as suggested from the build output: Try to build from main instread (I assume you tried 24.05 branch)

Armbian doesnt seem to see sata harddrives.

@Popolon indeed this issue rot for a long time. I cleaned up my backlog to have more time for armbian. Also I still have quite a few processes to learn about armbian board maintenance still to this day.

But you confirm that with mainline 6.12 all is fine ? But, indeed no HDMI out and no audio. I still have a patch for mainline 6.12 in the pipe about a race condition between SATA chip and nvme as far as I remind. I will prioritize data vendor kernel debugging if this mainline patch is not required (and indeed mainline still lacks any multimedia capability, this might be a showstopper for most users) even though I am close to complete testing and send PR for this one.

As of now I have confirmed that this mainline patch set does not help vendor as the vendor branch has a hack that workaround the issue that mainline faces about this SATA/nvme race.
