Raspberry Pi

I tried to replace PXVirt on my Raspberry Pi 4 (8GB RAM) with a fresh Proxmox installation. I flashed the Armbian 26.8.1 minimal image and then ran `apt update && apt full-upgrade`. I started the installation with : armbian-config --cmd PVE001 An error occurred during installation: An apt update shows Hit:1 http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie InRelease Get:2 http://security.debian.org trixie-security InRelease [43.4 kB] Get:3 http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve trixie InRelease [4,357 B] Get:4 http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie-updates InRelease [47.3 kB] Hit:5 https://github.armbian.com/configng sta…

Installed minimal debian image on my rPI5B. Then used "armbian-config --cmd PVE001" to install Proxmox. That went well with no reported errors. Navigated to the Proxmox web GUI and it looked and acted as expected. I currently have an AMD64 Proxmox cluster operating on my homelab so I am familiar with Proxmox. I wanted to make some changes to my network configuration using the Proxmox GUI. When I clicked the "Apply Configuration" button, it threw an "incompatible ifupdown2 package version" instead of applying the configuration.

I'm struggling to get the Pi Camera 3/IMX708 detected by the Zero 2W. It's an IMX708 sensor, and that is correctly showing in dmesg, but the V4L2 devices (/dev/video0, /dev/video1) for the camera are not set up. All the normal encoder devices are fine. I'm using a custom build but it's essentially minimal (and no desktop) current with trixie and no extensions, following the standard command for building an image. The dmesg log reads as follows: [ 10.719672] imx708 10-001a: camera module ID 0x0302 [ 10.719876] imx708 10-001a: ctrl(id:0x9f0902,val:0x232aaf80) is not handled [ 10.722275] imx708 10-001a: ctrl(id:0x9e0902,val:0x2b20) is…

I recently got a Raspberry Pi 5 and installed Armbian on it. Most things work fine, aside for some weird output issues in htop and nano. I noticed, when I go to the Raspberry Pi page on Armbian, the url refers to the Pi 4b, not the 5. I also found some articles online linking to a specific Pi 5b page (which I thought was weird since that model doesn't exist), but it just redirects to the 4b page. Then, I went searching in the archive and found that, at some point, there were specific 5b images available (https://armbian.hosthatch.com/archive/rpi5b/archive). Which of these should I use? Is the 4b image okay to use on a Pi 5? Or do you not suppo…

Hi Armbian forum people! I'm trying to setup bcache for my openmediavault. But it seems the `bcache` module is not installed? Which means I cannot use `bcache` at the moment with openmediavault. I do know that the bcache has been added only recently: * https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/9550?ref=blog.armbian.com * "Enable BCACHE on Raspberry Pi build" But no go so far.. Is there anything I can do?

Greetings, I installed Armbian Noble with gnome desktop, specifically "Armbian_26.2.1_Rpi4b_noble_current_6.18.9_gnome_desktop.img" on a Raspberry Pi 5. Updated system and installed chrome since I need to play some media from inside chromium browser. However, I checked to see that hardware accelerated video decode is not actually supported within Armbian currently. Previously I had official Raspberry Pi OS installed when I first had a look at the device and there it was enabled. It's kind of a minor thing but I've used different hardware with Armbian before and it would make things a lot easier for me if I can keep using Armbian on Raspberry Pi 5 as well.…

hi, using rpi5, sometimes swap with rpi400, I have problem with the last upgrade, after reboot kernel does not boot, stuck in starting system. One or two of theses pkg fail. Thanks in advance

How can I fix this or was signing simply forgotten? Thank you!

I've observed a significant difference in SSH login speed between DietPi and Armbian on Raspberry Pi 4B (headless setup). Environment Raspberry Pi 4B (headless) DietPi (recently installed) Armbian (previously used) Both systems use default settings Observations SSH login to DietPi is consistently faster than Armbian by a few seconds with default settings. Initially suspected MOTD settings, tested files under /etc/update-motd.d/. Discovered that 10-armian-header adds approximately 1 second to login time. Disabled this component but SSH login to Armbian still remained slow. Found related discussion on Ra…

I'm having trouble with the raspberry omv builds. The latest build I can get working is 24.11.1 which doesn't survive an upgrades (I've tried holding the various packages that seem to cause issues which used to work but doesn't work anymore. The suggested trouble shooting on the download page doesn't work either. Currently the 25.11.1 build is stuck in a bootloop, the only irregularity I can identify is failure to load console-setup.service message. I had a working system that lost my soundcard/DAC-hat after trying to address update error messages which's what started this whole refresh process

Hi, I successfully installed and tested PiClone (or also called SD Card Copier) in Armbian 25.8.1 Trixie on a Raspberry PI 4b with SD cards and SSD via USB adapter and vice versa. Might also work on other Debian based distro's. I just leave my personal instructions here in case others need PiClone too to make copy of good working Armbian install and configuration. To be clear I am not a very advanced user, so others may know to do more efficient. But it is working here without issue. Moved to Armbian because was fed up with annoyances in DietPI, certain things being too different from pure Debian that I use on "regular" computers. Raspberry PI OS i…

Hello! I have an RPi5 8GB board that I bought off of AliExpress, along with a Waveshare PoE M.2 HAT+ ( https://www.waveshare.com/poe-m.2-hat-plus-b.htm ) Initially I tried to use the Noble XFCE image, by following the recommended installation procedure via rpi-imager via a USB drive, hoping to install the system to a Toshiba (Kioxia) NVMe drive. The RPI5 was connected to a CrowView Note. What I saw was that the firmware loaded up the necessary files from the USB drive (then later the micro-SD card), and the initramfs loaded up too, then systemd started up, and probably when the screen usually goes blank for a short time (probably switchin…

Hello, I have installed NextcloudPi on my Raspberry PI5. Current OS is installed currently: Now, I would like to make an upgrade and get the following issue. What can I do? I am very grateful for any help.

Actually using a zero2w but same image obv as rpi4... unable to login (refused ssh). had to switch back to the 25.2.3 build

Upon reading the content of RPi5 about 6.12 from this and this , I was under the impression that it's okay to upgrade the Armbian 24.11 based NextCloudPi to a 6.12 kernel. Well, I was wrong and the RPi5 current stuck in the RPi Logo on a black page. Net address seems to be 0.0.0.0. I could really use some advice on how to restore this, perhaps some `chroot` method from another Linux machine to get the right kernel package and intramfs. Here are the steps that got me to the current situation. Maybe a hint on how to restore? 1. Mark `raspi-firmware`, like what was recommended in 1st post. sudo apt-mark hold raspi-firmware [sudo] passwo…

I am currently developing an application that requires using monitor mode with RT8821CU chipset (rtw88 kernel driver). Previously I was using RaspberryPi OS and everything worked great, but I am moving to Armbian mainly to be able to target more SBCs. The problem is in Armbian, the WiFi monitoring performance is much much worse (at least with the RT8821CU) than with RaspberryPi OS and with my Arch laptop, and I cannot guess why could this be. I have tested on the rpi4b the following: * Build the rtw88 driver with debug and debugfs enabled just in case. * Test with all the three kernel versions available (edge 6.16, current 6.12, legacy 6.6). None of them …

I use a Raspberry Pi 5 and use I2C1 with external eeprom. With v25.5.1 up to kernel 6.6.63-current-bcm2711, /dev/i2c-1 is there (activated in /boot/firmware/config.txt with dtparam=i2c_arm=on) and communication with eeprom works fine. With newer kernel versions, communication works not, /dev/i2c-1 does not exist anymore in this case without changing any configuration, just selected newer kernel using armbian-config Any ideas why this happens?

I tried to follow below guide, but I wasnt able to install as the model isn't listed in it. I tried cups and gutenprint but even when the printer was added to cups dashboard, but when I send "Print Test" then nothing prints out. What options do I have here ?

I'm generating an image version and I noticed that WIFI is not being activated. Until the Armbian-unofficial_24.11.0-trunk_Rpi4b_jammy_current_6.6.58_minimal version it worked and after that it stopped. Can someone help?

Hi, the title says it all: this is the message I get when booting. I rebooted several times, to no avail: same message... The resizing did not seem to occur, as I don't have enough space to install a few packages. Looking at the armbianmonitor log, it seems that resize2fs is missing... Installing e2fsprogs then rebooting fixes the issue. It's on trixie Minimal / IOT image. Best regards. [Edit] typo: lof->log

Hi I am new to this forum and to Armbian but am enjoying the work of all those who have contributed. having installed Armbian for the first time could someone please confirm or otherwise if WiFi is supposed to be working on the RPI5 internal adapter? my install does not even see it at all it’s like it does not exist can it be turned on in simple terms for a noob?

A while ago (February '24), I downloaded and installed Armbian_23.11.3_Rpi5b_bookworm_current_6.1.68_cinnamon_desktop. It is running OK, and I only have a few issues with it. One issue is that the vcgencmd is not working. I posted a question about it on the forum and received a reply saying that this would be solved "when possible." However, it is still not resolved. Without this command working, I cannot get the CPU temperature, so I cannot control the cooling fan. I checked for a newer release today to see if this issue is fixed. I was shocked to see no Bookworm with Cinnamon release available. I'd like to know if it is in the works or has been dropped and wil…

Hello guys! Probably some of you know me as the MadEDoctor from Youtube. For those of you who don't know my channel and don't know what I am doing at the moment - Long story short I got my hands on a 16GB RAM chip that should be compatible with the Raspberry Pi 4 hardware. But there is a problem I am facing... That is I am unable to boot any OS different from VMware (arm version) and RISC OS (that is pretty much useless). When I try to boot Raspbian for example - It shows the rainbow square and then gets stuck on a completely black screen and it draws around 500mA...

Hi, New user here - I Just download the current version of Armbian today with the hopes of using it on my Raspberry Pi 5B. After unzipping it, I created an image on a usb stick using Raspberry Pi Imager - use custom. However, it is not booting. It only shows a few lines on the screen, the last being: Begin: Running /scripts/local-block ... done. (screen shot below) What am I doing wrong?

Hello all, I am using Armbian (Debian Bookworm), Gnome with Wayland. everything is working just fine. The problem is with sharing or presenting screen with OBS-Studio, Jitsi, Google meeting or other. If I share a tab in Chromium/Firefox with Jtisi or Google meeting, that's work, but I can't share a window or full screen. I am wondering what is the main cost of that. This when I share full screen, it doesn't work properly, it shows like this: This when I share tab, it's working just fine.

Today, I set up SSH public key authentication on my RPI5B running Armbian-unofficial 24.8.0-trunk Bookworm. During the test, I noticed that the initial SSH session message displayed the CPU temperature and other details. Unfortunately, the vcgencmd utility provided by the Raspberry Pi Foundation doesn't work on Armbian. I'm looking to understand how the temperature, CPU clock, and GPU clock are measured, and if possible, I'd like to receive some code to do so.

Reverting "linux-firmware-raspi" from "12-0ubuntu1" to "10-0ubuntu1" resolves this issue.

I am unable to see how to setup the Pimoroni NVME base for the Raspberry PI 5 with Armbian 23.11.3. Are there published instructions? Is this supported?

I installed Armbian from Armbian_23.11.3_Rpi5b_jammy_current_6.1.68_cinnamon_desktop.img.xz downloaded today (February 11th 24) After installation, I performed an upgrade/update. I have not yet installed any additional software. Issues; 1) when cinnamon desktop starts there is message displayed: Your system is currently running without video hardware acceleration 2) vgencmd always gives an error: VCHI initialization failed, no matter if I run it with sudo or not, or with which parameter(s) I run it. armbian monitor -u gave link https://paste.armbian.com/lurunopoyo

Hi, where can I find kernel headers for RPi5 jammy? linux-headers-6.1.68.current-bcm2712 ? This version of Armbian is really usefull because it is the only one that can run a version of ROS natively on a RPi5, but I need the headers to build drivers Thanks

I'm trying to get to the point where I can read time from the DS3231 RTC module on a Raspberry Pi 4. From what I understand, I first need to activate i2c bus, then load the kernel module that would work with the clock itself. So far i2cdetect tool fails to detect anything. There are no i2c-* devices in /dev either. I've read about "Hardware" option in armbian-config, but it's not showing up in the menu. I've also read that it's a matter of adding a device tree overlay. Does that apply for RPI4? The folder structure in /boot seems different from what documentation and several threads describe for other boards. What would be the steps for acti…

I'm attempting an install to the eMMC on a CM4 (mounted on an Axzez Interceptor) using armbian-install. I've booted Armbian 23.5 Jammy CLI from USB, and armbian-install runs fine, (boot from eMMC, system on eMMC) After transferring the rootfs I get the "Cleaning up ... Almost done." message, and then the following: Error while creating U-Boot loader image with mkimage Error: no u-boot package found, exiting I've run a full update / upgrade and installed armbian-config with no change. What's missing here?

I noticed there's a community overlay module that adds a "first boot" script which, among other things, allows you to connect to wifi without ever connecting a monitor or keyboard. But, this overlap doesn't seem to come with the current raspberry pi 4b image (Armbian_23.5.1_Rpi4b_jammy_current_6.1.29.img). I tried downloading the build script, but I don't see an option to enable overlays in that either. Is this supported at this time? Also, I know I could just use raspbian if I want this feature, but I'm hoping to work with armbian because I want my build process to be reproducible on other boards.

Using release Armbian_23.5.1_Rpi4b_jammy_current_6.1.29 on a Raspberry Pi 4b. From a clean install: $ sudo apt update $ sudo apt upgrade $ sudo apt install podman $ podman run --rm docker.io/library/hello-world Error: command required for rootless mode with multiple IDs: exec: "newuidmap": executable file not found in $PATH Podman runs fine with sudo, so for now I can use that as a workaround, but it would be nice to run rootless containers for dev environments. There is a related issue on the official podman repo, but the solutions there don't seem to apply to armbian. https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/9271

Where can I get the kernel headers for rpi4b for 5.15.92-bcm2711? sudo armbian-config does not get it

im on a fresh install of armbian cinnamon for the rpi4. i can not seem to get bluetooth working. there seems to be no bluetooth module loaded by kernel maybe? i tried to enable it using armbian-config, but it doesn't get activated by systemctl even when enabled. any ideas?

The `hardware` menu is missing on the current build - so been trying to manually install spidev module. I did add the following lines to armbianEnv.txt but I don't see anything yet in /dev/spi* overlays=spi-spidev param_spidev_spi_bus=0

Hello all, according to the hints on the ARMBIAN homepage the image "Armbian_23.02.0-trunk_Rpi4b_lunar_edge_6.1.5.img" should work with the Raspi 3. Unfortunately it does not work properly, the system does not want to boot with it.... The name of the image says that it was generated for Raspi4, but -as I said- the homepage says that this image would also be compatible for the other Raspberry systems mentioned there. Can anyone tell me what the reason could be, because I would love to use this ingenious image for the Raspi 3. Best regards from Berlin Z. Matthias

Hello all, As I have often said, I am very satisfied with this LINUX implementation on the RASPI PI4 board. In the meantime, I noticed one small thing and that was somehow related to the 4GB version of my RASPI. I often had to record a KERNEL crash here; this did not happen under the 8GB version until now. But now to my actual question: How can I activate the CAMERA port under this Linux version so that I can connect a camera there? Best regards Z. Matthias

Hello all, I have installed the image "Armbian 23.02.0-trunk.0176 Lunar with bleeding edge Linux 6.1.6-bcm2711" on my two Raspi 4 systems. One system runs via cable and the other via WLAN. At the beginning there were some problems with the IPv6 - kernel, if "apt update" was executed. I got this problem under control with "disable ipv6".... Since then, both systems run flawlessly & without problems. With the implementation of GPIO you should fall back on an existing GPIO - version, which works in any case also under this image; also for 64bit. One small thing I would like to know very much, because on the system with the cable the…

Hello everybody. I've faced the issue: Armbian_22.08.7 official image (Armbian_22.08.1_Rpi4b_jammy_current_5.15.61.img) failed to boot on RPi3B plus. The same image boots fine on RPi 4B Could not get serial console output (output is empty) Older official image Armbian_22.08.1_Rpi4b_jammy_current_5.15.61.img boots on Rpi3B plus just fine. As I've found out the reason is incorrect boot partition type set for the image. Armbian_22.08.1 (boots fine) boot partition type is "c" (W95 FAT32 LBA) Armbian_22.08.7 (doesn't boot) boot partition type is "ef" (EFI) After manually changing boot partiton type to "c" (W95 FAT32 L…

I am only sure, that Armbian_22.11.0-trunk_Rpi4b_jammy_edge_5.19.11_xfce_desktop.img.xz works with my hardware, maybe Armbian_22.11.0-trunk_Rpi4b_jammy_current_5.15.70_xfce_desktop.img.xz too. For sure I have problems with newer Armbian_22.11.0-trunk_Rpi4b_jammy_current_5.15.73_xfce_desktop.img.xz and Armbian_22.11.0-trunk_Rpi4b_jammy_edge_5.19.15_xfce_desktop.img.xz So where can I download older versions?

I con do a screenshot with scrot and a terminal, but a screenshot with the P400 and PrtScn-Key does not work. Can anybody help me please?

Armbian_22.11.0-trunk_Rpi4b_jammy_current_5.15.73_xfce_desktop.img.xz Raspberry PI400 Viewsonic VP930 (1280x1024) I checked the sha-sum and flashed 2 times a Patriot SXDC-128GB-card. When I boot the PI400 the monitors LED changes from green (power on) to yellow (standbye) for half an hour, when I start the PI400. It looks like there is a problem with this old monitor which supports 1280x1024 only. Don't know, if the boot routine checks the monitor, but the green LED can stay for 2sec, sometimes for 30sec. BTW Xubuntu 22.04 with an SSD works fine with the same hardware.

Is there an armbian software distribution for the "Broadcom BCM2711" ? (rasberrypi 4)

Hello everyone, I would like to build an image for the Rasperry Pi 1, 2 and Zero. I could not found a download for a RPi on armbian.com. Then I saw that `rpi` is disabled in `/lib/configuration.sh`. Even when enabling it, I get an error during build, saying "[ error ] Building failed, check configuration" . I wonder why the Raspberry Pi is not supported. Is it due to its closed hardware? Thanks!
