Armbian on H96 Max Ultra 4K (RK3318) stuck in boot mode

[Yanzick]

Hi everyone,

I'm facing an issue with my Armbian setup on an H96 Max Ultra 4K (RK3318). The system boots up normally and works fine for a while, but after running for some time, it completely freezes and becomes unresponsive. I have to power cycle the device to get it running again. This issue keeps happening consistently after some time, and I’m not sure what's causing it.

Here are a few details about my setup:

Board model: H96 Max Ultra 4K (RK3318)

Armbian version: Armbian_24.11.0_rockchip_rk3318-box_bookworm_6.1.114_server_2024.11.01.img

SD card format: BTRFS

Things I've tried so far:

Checking the power supply to ensure it's stable and sufficient.

Re-imaging the SD card with a fresh Armbian installation.

Monitoring logs, but I haven’t found any obvious errors before the system hangs.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this issue or how to resolve it? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
