Stuck on jammy, can't upgrade to noble

[Domas]

Okay, where do I start....

Armianmonitor: https://paste.armbian.com/oletimumob

 

I have this ancient Opi+. AND I KNOW THOSE TYPES OF UPDATES ARE NOT SUPPORTED. Yet, they often succeeds and I want to upgrade my system via do-release-upgrade

For last six months I am stuck on this, attaching output from putty login screen AND lsb_release as a printscreen

 

My sources.list.d look like this

orangepiplus:sources.list.d:% dir
armbian-config.sources	armbian.list  ubuntu.sources
orangepiplus:sources.list.d:% cat armbian-config.sources 
Types: deb

Update package noble.tar.gz is downloaded and run, but then it results in this, not sure why?

Updating repository information

No valid mirror found 

While scanning your repository information no mirror entry for the 
upgrade was found. This can happen if you run an internal mirror or 
if the mirror information is out of date. 

Do you want to rewrite your 'sources.list' file anyway? If you choose 
'Yes' here it will update all 'jammy' to 'noble' entries. 
If you select 'No' the upgrade will cancel. 

Continue [yN] y

Generate default sources? 

After scanning your 'sources.list' no valid entry for 'jammy' was 
found. 

Should default entries for 'noble' be added? If you select 'No', the 
upgrade will cancel. 

Continue [yN] 

 

I agree to this  but then it results in buttload of Hit/Err 404 errors, for some reason, it is a small part of it:

It ends like this:

By trial and error I managed to overcome this by fully commenting out ubuntu sources (whole file) like this:

 

#Types: deb
#URIs: http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/
#Suites: jammy jammy-updates jammy-security
#Components: main restricted universe multiverse
#Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg

Then  it does not ask me twice about generating default sources. And this way today it updated around 240 packages, asked for a restart too. But the system remained on 22 jammy.

 

Not sure why it worked.

 

After I run this again i get a buttload of "no candidate ver" errors and it just aborts - this is not a full output.

 

No candidate ver:  libpython3.10-minimal
No candidate ver:  libqt5core5a
No candidate ver:  libqt5gui5
No candidate ver:  libssl3
No candidate ver:  python3.10-minimal
No candidate ver:  resolvconf
No candidate ver:  rng-tools

After this, now the system's time is approx 30 min late.

 

Cant seem to fix it either. Unable to systemd-timesyncd because some missing dependency but I will not go into details at this moment.

 

The same happens both on beta releases and stable.

 

Fully updated via armbian-upgrade

Where do I start? Clean install would be my LAST effort. I'd hate to do this

Where do I begin
