salas Posted May 26 Posted May 26 Is there any working image for orangepi5-pro? I am having trouble to understand a few things in the https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-5-pro/ It says: Quote PCI support is broken on vendor kernel (6.1.xx) on versions higher then 24.8.1. Use this version and freeze kernel (armbian-config -> system) prior to updating OS. PCI works on other Rockchip 3588 devices, while fixing this on all represent expensive technical challenge which we will be able to proceed once your donations for entire project reaches at least 1000 USD per month. With Orangepi devices we have extremely high negative support budget. Alternative operating systems that relies on our work face the same problem. We appreciate for your understanding. But downloding the image on that page brings Armbian_community_25.8.0-trunk.38_Orangepi5pro_bookworm_vendor_6.1.115_minimal.img.xz which is version 25.8.0 and that image wont boot. 0 Quote
Werner Posted May 27 Posted May 27 Check assets at community releases as csc hw is ususally not on mirrors but on GH: https://github.com/armbian/community/releases 0 Quote
salas Posted May 27 Author Posted May 27 Hi @Michael Robinson, thanks for the help, but one of the first things i did was check the build process. Unfortunately there is no orangepi5-pro board in the v24.8.1 branch which makes that warning about 24.8.1 version even hard to understand. I tried to compile new versions, but none of those new versions boot. Hi @Wernerthanks for the tip, but unfortunately the oldest version on github is 24.11 and they do not boot 0 Quote

CNCJIM Posted May 30 Posted May 30 I have an Orange Pi 5 pro - with a 256GB M.2 SSD drive - I have kernel 6.115 running . Booting from SD - root is mounted on nvme0n1p1 (the SSD). Armbian 25.8.0-trunk53.-bookworm. I have three issues with this - 1:- no audio out of the 3.5 inch jack. 2: No internal Bluetooth 3. Have to use the SD card for initial boot. PCI is working on that version. I would like to use the RT-Pre-emptive kernel. It doesn't seem to be available. And the 6.1.2 kernel images do not find the SSD drive at all on orange pi 5 pro. 0 Quote

Maybe missing node in device tree. 9 hours ago, CNCJIM said: 2: No internal Bluetooth Maybe missing firmware blobs or same as above. 9 hours ago, CNCJIM said: 3. Have to use the SD card for initial boot. Expected since neither SPI nor eMMC are present by default. Direct boot from NVMe isn't support by any Rockchip soc. 0 Quote
CNCJIM Posted June 1 Posted June 1 I have questions about 1 building a full image that supports the Orange Pi 5 Pro. From my understanding of building the kernel - the supported modules for the chipset need to be built for the specific SBC card. I can easily access the correct kernel I would like. What I am lacking is an understanding of what source images to install on my build platform for the modules and what the the configuration settings specific to the SBC. Can someone clue me in? I haven't built a kernel in 20 years. I can try to make a case for Armbian to support the OPI 5 Pro or Max. But this isn't the right forum for that, I prefer the Pro or Max over the Plus as I do not need all those HDMI ports. My goal is to build two kernels - one on SMB Pre-emptive and one RT PREEMPTIVE - specifically for the Orange Pi 5 PRO and two images with all the I/O functional. Evidently the Armbian official builds are for the Orange Pi 5B and the Plus. I haven't exhaustively gone through all of the community supported offerings. 0 Quote
Werner Posted June 2 Posted June 2 All images are specifically made for the board. Some share the same kernel package since they are from the same soc family (for example, there are a lot of boards using the rk3588/s soc so they can have the same kernel package. Board's components are defined in device tree). Sample board config: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/config/boards/orangepi5pro.csc BOARD_FAMILY is rockchip-r3588 The sources config: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/config/sources/families/rockchip-rk3588.conf Pro, max and ultra are community contributions and for now entirely unsupported since there is also no support from the vendor for us for these whatsoever to make its software better. 0 Quote
CNCJIM Posted June 4 Posted June 4 Werner - thanks - I did check the community and only found builds for 6.1 -- I did a build and had added three lines in the .conf file CONFIG_ PREEMPTICE_RT=y CONFIG_PREEMPTION=y and CONFIG_PREEMPT=y as I recall. did the "make" "make modules_install" and then the "make module" and there were a string of questions - during the make about some of the pre-emption options, which I was unprepared to answer. Not worried about those. I was concerned that the modules_install and the module make commands were installing the necessary routines. I do not understand how the orangepi5pro.csc file gets incorporated into the build process. I was on an Orangepi os to run the krtnrl build. Now moving back to Armbian 6.1.115. I am downloading a Armbian community supported 6.1.115 download for orange pi pro. I will then download the rockchip-rk3588.conf file - and the orangepi5pro.csc file - not sure where the board config file goes and how it ties into the kernel build process - might need a pointer for that Jim 0 Quote
CNCJIM Posted June 4 Posted June 4 CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y. I was hoping to use the OrangePi5 Pro - with Linuxcnc - for machine controls - This would require predictable response times for precision cutting routines. The kernel build settings in the current release do not include the Setting for PREEMPTIVE_RT. Debian for X86 defaults to having it setup to support a Fully Preemptive mode. I am wondering why this hasn't trickled down to SBC builds. Byte2bot sells a shield card for converting the Pi 20 pin header to a Parallel port for connecting to CNC motion control cards - roughly $50 without having any manual wiring. Really slick - but at the moment - its would be good for Raspberry pi 4 and 5 as they have the Realtime kernel build available. I have a Tower PC with PCIe parallel on debian bookwork setup for machine control for a milling machine. So the Orange_Pi_5 is a much better solution . Please let me know how if I am on the correct track. I will copy the config file to the .config file in the kernel build directory -- This should be found in the /boot directory or the /proc directory - and add in the PREEMPT commands for fully PREEMTIVE that I found listed in the Kconfig file. Then I have to figure out where to place the orangepi5pro.csc file you pointed me to. At that point I should try to find some reference material about the Preemption settings the make process is going to ask me about. make should complete, and then "make module_install" - Then "make modules" At that point - the build is done. I will have to sort out how the /boot files need to be modified. Sorry for all the questions - If there is some reference material - that is clear about the Image Uinitram the Armbian Environment - and other boot related topics please point them out. 0 Quote
