Rockpi 4A doesn't boot after package update to 25.8.1

[toine512]

Hello,

 

I just apt upgrade-ed my Armbian 25.5 from mid-August to 25.8.1 and it doesn't start after software reboot. It is usually headless, I plugged it into a monitor and all I get is a uboot logo in the top left corner. No message, nothing.

The board is the Rockpi 4A. The system is on eMMC 😩

 

What do I do now to at least roll back ? At worst make a browsable copy of the eMMC ?

 

Thanks!

Antoine

If you're still able to boot from microsd (which should be prefered over emmc if Armbian uboot is used) you can chroot into the system on eMMC and downgrade packages, either manually (apt/dpkg) or with armbian-config.
