bolet75 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Hi armbian team ! I've been running my Odroid C2 for almost 2 years with the only then available distro for my board : odrobian. As that distro is now left without maintainer, I'm turning to other distros and am glad to see my board supported by armbian (which I currently use on various Orange Pi boards). Is there a path to migrate my Odroid C2 installation from odrobian to armbian with minimum downtime ? (it's a server) Or should I consider installing everything from scratch on another board and copy my configuration there ? Thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not very much familiar with Odrobian details so it's hard to say. In case of troubles ... you will need help from both sides or some dedicated person with a lot of time. I would say rather go with a clean build. Remarks. Mainline kernel works somehow but is not yet recommended for any production environment, while the standard kernel is updated at least to the hard kernel level. In any case, I would suggest waiting for next small bugfix update. There are some small things which need attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolet75 Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 Thanks Igor, I'll take the clean install path then, even if I had a slight hope for an easy migration trick. And I'll use the opportunity to upgrade the server to an Odroid-HC1. I read somewhere that you were running this forum on an Odroid-XU4. Both sharing the same hardware, I believe you'll take special care of maintaining armbian for that platform :-) I'll sure wait for the bugfixes, no emergency on my side… Cheers !
