Reboot is not working

[alm]

I have an issue with the latest releases since Yammy on a Orange Pi Zero LTS. Reboot is not working (system shuts, but not starting again)

Providing logs with 

armbianmonitor -u

 helps with troubleshooting and significantly raises chances that issue gets addressed.

I have experimented with changing kernels and when I install 6.6.16 it is still working.

https://paste.armbian.com/akaceraduc just made with kernel 6.12.20

And now loaded with kernel 6.6.16 https://paste.armbian.com/kecigabete which is working

Hi @alm,

You should try with the legacy kernel, 6.6.75. That still has reboot working on my (first gen) Orange pi zero.

Grt,

The same bug also occurs on the Orange Pi Zero non-LTS board: shutdown instead of reboot (Armbian 25.5.1, kernel 6.12.30).

[alm]

Does anyone know if this will be solved in new releases or should we use an old kernel 6.6.75 as alternative?

Then the next question : can we avoid an update of the kernel when using the apt command upgrade?

 

Already found the solution: Use armbian-config and disable upgrade of firmware

I have the same problem, and for me it seems unrelated to kernel revisions. I have a whole bunch of Orange Pi Zeros, all running the same kernel and all with the same updated packages. However, the ones that run from old SD cards and have been updated from earlier releases, they reboot fine, while those that running from relatively recently flashed SD cards struggle and halt instead of reboot. Since this is super annoying, I wish to find out what's causing this, so I will do some diffing between the systems to see if I can find the culprit.
