Just got an ODroid M1S (8GB), tried current community build, and found it wasn't working (Armbian_community_26.11.0-trunk.120_Odroidm1s_resolute_current_6.18.60_minimal.img.xz).

So, a thread while I'm debugging if anyone's interested. Lets see how far I get.

boot_fail.txt

Found this thread by @Mortimer2003 , who probably deserves some kudos for identifying some fairly major issues, but were never submitted for PR.

Looks like things have been broken for a bit in the build. So, let's take a swing at it: https://github.com/tparys/build/tree/odroid_m1s

First up is the load address. The rk35xx family boot script loads data at 0x9000000, but doesn't seem to be valid for M1S?

Adding a custom boot script that loads 0xc000000 gets us booting and to first boot login.

But Ethernet isn't working (as identified).

rk_gmac-dwmac fe010000.ethernet eth0: cannot attach to PHY (error: -ENODEV)

Adding a custom boot script

FYI. Might come handy here.
@djurny made generalization / templating of boot scripts. If only loading address is different, it would be cleaner then cp whole script. In case you find time to look into. Not a blocker.
