I have no idea if it works. Probably it does. On 5/19/2020 at 7:58 AM, manuti said: the internal Wi-Fi din't work Expand This box came with at least two different onboard wifi chips, which means you have to play with a device tree blob configuration to make it work. Drivers are most likely present in the kernel for all variants.

Thanks. Expand Yes. Besides some essential system packages that may be installed via apt as common the required toolchains, the source cache stuff will be in th same directory. One exception is ccache which will be under /home/<youruser>/.ccache My current build directory without clearing anything has 41G and ccache has 4G.

I have 21GB free in the /home unit, and the script warned when only have 9GB. I really love these pieces of junk, the Beelink X2 and the Sunvell R69, and armbian to give they a decent Linux live.
vlna Posted July 20, 2020 Posted July 20, 2020 I've built fresh image for Beelink X2 on 2020-07-18. Focal with Xorg only. It looks even wifi works out of box. Download image at https://mega.nz/file/z0IlgKiQ#UNdKk68q4XmZ8hb7zrYoGkdh_NtcbiuI-5XEZPvMPQ8 2
manuti Posted July 20, 2020 Posted July 20, 2020 Thanks @vlna tomorrow I give a try. And share my thoughts.

Try with fresh image from https://github.com/armbian/community and install armbian-firmware-full package (via armbian-config or by hand) since there are some errors that it couldn't find firmware files.

Dario Pulcinelli Posted November 9, 2022 Posted November 9, 2022 Hi Igor, first of all thank you for your prompt response. By flashing the bootloader you mean something like this ? dd if=u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1024 seek=8 Thanks
