Image build error : Unable to locate package armbian-firmware

[vlad59 23]

Hi,

 

After building a DEV Pine64 image successfully, I wanted to build a Dev BananaPI image to update 2 banana pis. Unfortunately I have this error (using this commit  id : e7aeffb1) :

I'm trying to generate a new image. It's only the second image I'm trying to build, so maybe I forgot some cleanup somewhere.

 

Thanks in advance.

If an image was generated successfully there is usually no need for cleanup by users hand.

That's strange indeed. I did a git pull. I'll try to remove all the cache.

Fixed with a reboot ..... still don't know why but at least it works.

I am sorry for posting in this older thread, but it is actually the first relevant google search result.

 

I am trying to create an flashable image for my A64-LTS board with LCD/DSI support. more to it here. The script always fails with the Image build error : Unable to locate package armbian-firmware error.

 

 

My setup is:

• current Virtualbox with Ubuntu 18.04. minimal image

• tweaked build script from https://github.com/GavinBa/build.git containing all the necessary fixes for working LCD and touch

 

What I do:

• ./compile.sh LIB_TAG=v9-a64-dsi

• I select following options: Full OS image for flashing, Don't change the kernel configuration, Target board: pine64so, Kernel next (Mainline), Target OS: stretch Debian 9, Image with console interface

 

I already tried ./compile.sh LIB_TAG=v9-a64-dsi EXTERNAL=no but that didn't help either. I am really stuck now,  could someone help me with this ?
