Hi, I can only find legacy images on the website. Is there a place to get mainline images so I can test docker? Thanks in advance. Regards, Michal

I have dd'd Armbian "stretch" onto a 16GB SD card and it's booting my CubieTruck fine. But I have no clue how to move it from there (mmcblk0p1) to my attached 128GB SSD (sda1). I've tried the nand_sata_install shell script but it appears to be a bit old (2 years), created a bunch of weird temp directories: root@cubietruck:~# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on udev 939M 0 939M 0% /dev tmpfs 202M 4.0M 198M 2% /run /dev/mmcblk0p1 15G 1.1G 14G 8% / tmpfs 1006M 0 1006M 0% /dev/shm tmpfs 5.0M 4.0K 5.0M 1% /run/lock tmpfs 1006M 0 1006M 0% /sys/fs/cgroup tmpfs …

Hello, I tried to install the four versions available for orange pi plus 2e, and none of them works. I can't even log in via SSH. I know they are nightly versions, the version with legacy kernerl works great... I just write this, because I have a spare orange pi plus 2e, and i'd like to offer to try any new version.

Sometimes it's unclear if my Nanopi NEO2 is still running, or fully locked up / FUBAR. Ping and SSH give no result. As there is no HDMI, I have no way to check if it's still there. So I was thinking: can I let the green LED flash each x seconds as a sign of life? Quote from Igor: "Both are accessible via sysfs, green is configurable while blue is not lit and reacting to anything. ". So a crontab script that writes something to /sys/ <LED> ... ? Feedback appreciated.

It is one of the smallest board featuring H5 soc. Since it has an on-board HDMI connector, i think it would be great to have a Desktop image for this board. Other H5 /similar boards like PC2 and Prime already have various desktops available (xenial / stretch with xfce).... Do u guys have any plan to release one in the future? and thanks a lot for the tremendous amount of effort u have put into this project :)

Hello there. I've got an Orange Pi PC+ SBC running desktop Armbian Xenial 5.38 kernel 3.4.113 from its eMMC that showed up pink screen after intermittent Power Up. I was using a 5V power adaptor that became faulty and intermittently became on and off. After replacing the power adaptor and booting up my device to a HDMI monitor, I found out that it now displays nothing but pink screen! Here's what I've done to no avail: 1. Turning on the HDMI monitor before and after I turn on the machine 2. SSHing from UART0 and suing command h3disp -m 5 (or 6 or 33 or 34...). No dice 3. Booting using the same Armbian OS but from SD card. SSH shows me the hostn…

Hello; It was tried with armbian buster, stretch and bionic. Orange pi zero connect wpa/wpa2 networks without problems, but connect to open network. I was trying different methods and wpa_supplicant conf file (key_mgmt=NONE) and different version of armbian. It cannot connect to open network. I need a solution for this problem. Thanks.

Hi there, I have 2 OPi PC+, one was with Jessie, then upgraded to Stretch, Working almost fine, only one issue was "systemctl start postgresql.service" not working. I used a workaround, "su - postgres -c 'pg_ctl start'". Postgres not from repo (previously was from repo) but compiled from source, as I need at least version 10 for "logical replication". Not at some point of time, I noticed message, that kernel package is to upgrade (3.4.112 to 3.4.113). After reboot graphics don't start. "No screens found". Ok, so I tried to upgrade (apt update, apt upgrade, apt dist-upgrade after changing name in /etc/apt/ files). Now it's almost crash: - graphics …

Hi, I'm using Armbian Linux on a Cubietruck A20 device configured as a media, file and backup server. Unfortunately while trying to fix a persistent SATA-cable connection problem I accidentally pushed the FEL button on the device. Now the device is always booting in FEL mode searching for USB devices, and I'm unable to reverse this. I have been looking at multiple pages about the FEL mode but I'm unable to find useful information on how to quit or exit this FEL mode and to have the cubietruck booting as it did before. Although I'm not a Linux novice, the information about FEL is quite complex and I have to admit I'm clueless about how to fix this s…

Hello community Here are the versions I’m using: Kernel: 5.15.48-sunxi OS: Linux nanopineo 5.15.48-sunxi #22.05.3 SMP Wed Feb 19 15:56:03 UTC 2025 armv7l GNU/Linux I’m having a problem. Sometimes, during boot, I see the following log: After this message, the system halts. The only way to fix it is to flash the image again or to boot from an SD card and mount the EMMC which fixes the file system. I noticed that the device doesn’t use the overlay_prefix variable from /boot/armbianEnv.txt. It shows this message: I tried adding the overlay_prefix variable manually in the boot.cmd file, but it didn’t help. …

Hi all I have a project where I'll be deploying the same configuration (including IP addresses) to a multiple Orange Pi Zeros. There will be some slight differences (hostname, information in one script) but largely identical. I was thinking about using a Linux VM to run a script that changes a base image (from a pre-set up machine) makes the changes and burns an image onto microsd. Is this a viable approach? Will I need to change anything else (MAC address related stuff?) Cheers!

I have installed the 'watchdog' package (apt-get install watchdog' on an Orange Pi Plus 2E, and it does not seem to be working as I would expect. If I write output to /dev/watchdog the system will reboot, but if I stop the watchdog service (and wd_keepalive) the system does not reboot. I did un-comment the path to /dev/watchdog in the settings file, but have generally not changed anything else. Is there some other required setup needed to allow this to function?

Hello, I've recently purchased an Orange Pi Zero and have Armbian 5.25 (Linux version 3.4.113-sun8i). My problem is that the network fails after some time (sometimes couple of minutes but half an hour at most). I'm not able to ping it at all. I've checked the logs in /var/log and can't find what is wrong, at least to my knowledge. Here is the boot log http://sprunge.us/gRjf, so if anyone has any idea please share. Other logs are uploaded as well orange_pi_zero_logs.7z

Hello, I'm using the last Kernel (4.13.3) and U-boot (2017-09). I noticed that the device does not reboot each time we ask for it. It sometime get stuck and I have to start it manually, this is really annoying for my needs. I figure it out that the Device Tree from 4.13.3 introduce some improvement on AXP209 and power management. I tried Device Tree file from 4.11.x and everything seems fine. Does any body noticed it ? Thanks

Hello Everyone, At first I'm sorry for my English I started working with Ubuntu server version -> Armbian_5.30_Orangepipc_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.4.113. For my purposes I needed to enable watchdog on my board. It took me a while, but I managed to do it. After setting up whole configuration, and then start stop tests everythink seems to work just fine (watchdog reboot my bord). To finish whole process I wanted to enable wdog to start at boot, but it didnt activate after reset. After some digging in Internet and investigation i figured out that in watchdog.service file one line is missed which was in all other services. So after a…

I can't get my Orange Pi working... After writing image to a SD card, the system boots up and the green LED lights up. Everything looks ok, until "Starting kernel..." line. After that the screen goes all black or displays artifacts. I tried different HDMI cables but still same issues. I've been trying with 5.25, 5.30, 5.35, 5.38 Ubuntu versions. I found out that the only way to get the system up and running was installing version 5.30, because the system boots with 720p mode. Other builds use 1080p mode. However when I "apt upgrade" the kernel, system boots with 1080p and the issue shows up again. Is there a way to "force" Armbian to use 720p mode by default?

I was struggling to make SPH0645 I2S microphone to work with H3 mainline kernel (4.14.87), on NanoPi Neo Core. After weeks of distress, I finally made it work! Maybe some will find it useful. Here's what I did: 1- In file sound/soc/sunxi/sun4i-i2s.c, change the following line { SUN8I_I2S_RX_CHAN_SEL_REG, 0x00000000 } to { SUN8I_I2S_RX_CHAN_SEL_REG, 0x00001000 } You may have to download the linux-source package for your kernel version, or you can build your own kernel. It's weird that in legacy kernel, this register was assigned 0x00001000 by default (and the mic worked easily on that kernel). Not sure why it's changed. I'm not …

First, thank you Igor for the wonderful images! I have a cubieboard1 which I haven't played with for a long time. This week I found Armbian and decided to put it on my CB1. I have an HDMI-to-DVI cable, so I connected CB1 to a Dell monitor with 1280x1024 resolution. I tried several of your images for CB1 and they all stuck during boot with blank screen. After several tries, I decided to try on a real HDMI with 1920x1080 resolution. Of course it worked. Did some google search and found out I can change one parameter in the boot.cmd/boot.scr from disp.screen0_output_mode=1920x1080p60 to disp.screen0_output_mode=EDID:1920x1080p60 and it will try to auto select screen re…

Since I upgraded to Armbian 23.8.1 (Kernel 6.6.31) I cant copy larger files from a CIFS share to a local attached sata disk on my banana-pi. Copy starts and gets stuck at around 4GB of transferred data ... its independant if I use rsync, cp or mv to transfer files. What I can see in the logs directly after the transfer gets stuck: root@nas03:~# dmesg [ 1280.477240] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 1280.477276] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 4182 at lib/iov_iter.c:316 _copy_to_iter+0x3bd/0x3c4 [ 1280.477372] Modules linked in: cmac nls_utf8 cifs cifs_arc4 nls_ucs2_utils cifs_md4 fscache netfs zram evdev axp20x_adc lima gpu_sched drm_shmem_helper sun4i_gpadc_i…

I noticed that the Cubie a5e would reboot when anything that draws moderate power (>100mA) was connected to the USB3 port. Thought it was my power supply or USB cable, but after changing that out and doing some testing, I have determined that the reboot problem doesn't happen with the Radxa Bullseye image, only with the Armbian Trixie. I haven't had a chance to test older Armbian builds to see if it broke somewhere along the way, but that's what I'll do next.

I've set up a HE.net IPv6 tunnel on my CubieTruck, which announces itself in the network as a router for IPv6 network traffic. However, when I transfer data from other computers via the CubieTruck, bandwidth is very bad. rsyslogd causes a very high load on the CubieTruck and transfer rates are only up to several hundred KB/s. However, when I test downloading files from the CubieTruck itself, load doesn't increase and I can use my full line speed of 4 MB/s. As rsyslogd is the logging daemon, I looked into the syslog and found hundreds of page allocation failures like the one I attached to this post. What's wrong and how can I fix this? exception.txt

Hello I received my first OrangePi today, a Zero, and I'm a bit lost. Installed armbian xenial, upgraded to beta/dev and installed dev kernel as documented. (working!)

Hi all, today I tried ubuntu xenial (dev) with kernel 4.9.4 for OrangePi Plus2. seems to work fine, but the screen resolution is 3840x2160. That is cool but a smaller resulution would be better. I tryed to change the screen settings over Settings -> Display, but it is not possible to change the values there. I also tried it with: sudo h3disp, but it is not installed on my system. What is the best way to change the screen res?

Why not to add lirc_gpio support to NanoPiNeo Air ? Even if it is not planned, I try to use this patch : https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib/blob/master/patch/kernel/sun7i-default/0050-lircgpio_and_raw.patch Kernel compilation is ok for me : apt-get -y install git git clone https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib --depth 1 cp lib/compile.sh . ./compile.sh I try to apply this patch now : ~/crosscompile/lib/patch/kernel/sun7i-default/0050-lircgpio_and_raw.patch I expected to have a lircgpio.ko somewhere, but nothing. Is there a procedure or a tutorial or some help to build a driver ?

Hi, I am running Armbian Jessie (4.11.6-sunxi) on Banana Pi M1. For reading and writing SD cards I use linux dd cmd on another box. I do not have a Windows system. My question is this: My SD card is a 16Gb device. With gparted I can reduce the size of the system to a partition that would easily fit on a 4Gb device. But when writing the .img file dd will still see and write an image of 16 Gb There must be a way to make an image that can be written to and booted from a smaller device to save resources on the backup disk. Can anyone point me in the right direction ?

Hi, After installing latest version of Armbian 5.59 Stretch, I found that CPU temperature was shooting up too high, and I figured out that the GPIOL6 controlling the VDD_CPUX between 1.1V and 1.3V is not set properly as a result the Pullup resistor R455 is holding the FET gate always high and it is always running by default at 1.3V, even though scaling_max_freq was set 912MHz. After manually switching the GPIO to OUTPUT_LOW the temperatures aren't going that high anymore. Just thought the DEVs should know. Thanks

Hello, I currently installed Opi0 plus2 h3_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.78 but when I boot up my device, red led blinks 2times then pause and repeating again. What does it mean? I have never seen this blinking red led behaviour in previous Armbian releases.

Because today I did get my Black-Friday NanoPi Neo2 LTS 1GB I swapped my old Neo2 against this new 1Gb LTS-version. After assembling the new LTS to the fresh heatsink I did a testdrive and all went fine (network etc). So I did try to put the faceplate back on the case but it doenst fit. At the time when I did buy the case there was also a faceplate for the normal H3 Neo delivered. So for the new LTS Neo2 I had to use the faceplate for the H3-Neo, because the new LTS Neo2 has the USB-Port aligned like the H3-Neo . The old Neo2 has his USB-Port (on the main Neo2-PCB) a bit shifted against the Network-port. Also the new LTS …

Just for info from cnx-software. Orangepi 3 H6 chip is launched!!!!

It is possible to drag backlight control slider to far left position and this completely dims the screen's backlight. This might cause a lot of trouble, if backlight levels get saved by systemd service, as it will persist across reboots and will require you to shine a flashlight on a screen to actually see something and turn backlight back on.

I just wanted to report that Armbian Buster image for Orange Pi 2 there SSH does not work. I tried installing it twice and also tried taking all updates. I had no skill to analyze or fix the problem, so just wanted to report it as is in case if it is not known. SSH does work on the Bionic Image for Orange Pi 2.

Greetings, Some time ago, I built armbian with kernel 5.4.51. I applied a patch to two dts files that allowed for the OV5640 camera to work. By "work", I mean /dev/video0 was present in the system and /dev/media0 was also present. I could set camera parameters with media-ctl pointing to /dev/media0. Now, I've updated, and using a legacy kernel, 5.4.65, I cannot reproduce this. I've applied the same dts changes, but upon booting this image /dev/media0 is missing. I've compared the two kernel configurations, and there are very minimal differences: # diff config-5.4.51-sunxi /boot/config-5.4.65-sunxi 3c3 < # Linux/arm 5.4…

Hi, I am having a hard time getting Armbian to boot on my Cubietruck. I have recorded some serial output but it does not show anything helpfull (at least for me). It just stopps at "Starting kernel". Verbosity is set to 7. Serial output 21.02.3 https://pastebin.com/DMWRzTgn Serial output 21.02.1 https://pastebin.com/a9Hasywc I tried the same SD-card and power supply with Arch for ARM. Arch boots fine. Serial output Arch Linux: https://pastebin.com/bMPf3gfx What further options do I have to debug this? As I am not really familiar with Arch I'd rather run a Debian / Ubuntu based OS.

I have armbian cli from armbian website for orange pi 3 SBC Putty refusing connection Orange pi 3 holds a still red light

From the CLI that is. I plan on using the OPi as a headless MIDI processor, and I'd like to be able to switch remotely the audio output of ALSA between the default audio-out, the HDMI out and a USB sound card (CM108-based, tested working with the current kernel). ALSA documentation isn't well maintained, most of it is old and doesn't correspond with the current state of the software (config files locations and names, contents etc). I tried various examples I found on several bulletin boards, but none really worked since Armbian seems to do things a bit differently. So I'm asking here: on Armbian, how do I switch remotely the output audio device in ALSA? No remote …

Hi, for all my automation projects I use BananaPi and BananaPro. As far as I know the difference is the script.bin file. Is this right? I will not maintain two Images. Right now I use the Image for the BananaPro 5.14. I changed the sym-link to BananaPi.bin. But the hardware-info after login shows "BananaPi Pro". Is there anything more I have to do? Thanks. Steffen

Hi whoever can help. Just bought the Topic device. Very disappointed because of very poor docs and support. I cannot boot Armbian. There are must be something undocumented. I just burnt image desktop Armbian with dd if=image of=/dev/sdc to SD but it is ext4 on /dev/sdc1 and fsck reports good. Well I made it is bootable by setting boot flag in partition but the device is not going to boot. None of leds is lighting. The device is booting well without any SD from it's internal flash into Android. (How to put there Armbian by the way?) It is also booting into Android from SD which I burnt under Windows(!!!!) with a "special" buggy tool Phoenix (Crazy!!!) …

I'm running an OrangePi One. Having installed Armbian a while ago and gone through all the updates, I was wondering if there is any way to determine what equivalent release my installations are at. I noticed that 5.20 is out and some folks are talking about 5.21. I'm running Jessie. Also, for me to use a more recent version of Debian, I'm guessing I would have to build the image myself? Is that due to shortcomings in the 4.x kernels on the H3 platform? I've done some digging and it seems like many (most) things are working right on the 4.x kernels? Thank you James

Hi. The following happened. When power is suddenly cut off in emmc, the file contents created by fopen (), fprintf (), fflush()　and fclose () are not saved after rebooting. It seems that it has not been physically written out while being cached. If display the file before cutting off the power, the contents are correctly saved. In addition, if it is normally reboot it is saved correctly.

I've got a bunch of these boards where I'd like to use the built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi capability in a small form factor for a project. I don't need video or audio or other functionality.

I am new to OPi+2E & Armbian combo. When booted up, all outgoing traffic is fine (though speed is very slow) but no incoming traffic gets successful, e.g. SSH and Ping. I tried DHCP and Static IPs. I believe there is no firewall running. I connected to WiFi through armbian-config and WiFi also connected but no incoming on either interface. If I disconnect LAN cable while WiFi is still connected, incoming traffic works on WiFi. As soon as I connect LAN cable again, incoming stops working on both interfaces. Same behaviour on Raspbian and Armbian. Is there some firmware I need to update? Help will be appreciated.

Hi, I use OPI0+. Bluetooth works well when using WiFi as a client. In access point I got an error like"Invalid command" "ConnectionAttemptFailed". Is there any way to fix it?

Hi I would like to communicate whith an arduino(as receiver) with RF 433. On a first thought I wanted to use rc-switch lib, do you know if there is a way to use it with the PI zero(transmitter) once I have installed the wiring pi zero? if not what would be my best choice as library for OPIZ (and arduino as receiver)? As MCU are better choices to drive hardware part, would it be a good idea to interface OPIZ with a ATMEGA328 as a SPI slave which one would drive the 433 RF emitter with the rc-switch lib above? This would be the overkill situation as I'm new to SPI (and OPIZ). thx

Hi all, I'm new here at the Armbian board. I operate a self made house automation based on a Raspberry using a self written PHP server and Homegear. To have a better wireless connection to a differential temperature sensor, I built a Homegear Gateway based on a Nano Pi Neo with Armbian OS and a 868 MHz CC1101 module. For the network connection I use a Realtek USB WLAN NIC (Realtek RTL8188EUS-Chipset). Most of the time the gateway works. But around 2-3 times per week the gateway hangs and I cannot log on anymore. A hard restart by unplugging power is required. The only indications I find are 2 dumps of the RTL8188EU driver in kern.log…

Hi gang. I am having a consistent problem changing the board over boot from the SD with the system on any kind of USB attached drive. The drive I want to put it on is a 1t ssb, which otherwise formats fine, over and over again, burns images on it fine (though rpi doesn't like how much power it grabs). But I duplicated the problem with a formatted SD card in a reader in the USB port as well. The same error message appeared. Now I have to say that I have read this post here: to see if there was anything unique to the H3 to accomplish this, but Igor said there to just follow the simple directions at Getting Started, which though dated, still work close…
