try using the x98h image.

@Nick AJust tried, couldn't start with SD. It's worse than before.😔.Currently, it can only run on the SD card using the x96Q-tvbox image. However, writing data to the SD card causes data loss or system crashes. I've already tried almost 10 different models of SD cards. Why is this happening? Have you encountered similar issues before?It usually freezes, and the box's light turns red. Occasionally, it crashes with the error shown in the screenshot.

@ARx8X98h has a similar AIC8800D wifi chip. You could probably use the wifi section from x98h dts.

 

I have never had problems with my sdcard. Maybe it’s a bad solder joint?

@Nick AThe possibility of a cold solder joint is very low since both devices (with identical eMCP chips) exhibit the same symptoms. Additionally, SD card read/write functions normally within the Android system.

Are there any alternative methods to install the OS onto the eMMC?

@ARx8 try miniarch.  https://github.com/warpme/miniarch/releases/tag/f3b14fbae071

 

I think this box is having the same issue as yours?

@Nick AI don't think it's the same issue.Later, I entered the Android system and used the dd command to flash the x96q tvbox IMG file into the mmcblk. It successfully ran the armbian via eMMC.Next, I will try the x98h Wi-Fi chip driver.Thanks
