OS is not detected by ABL on AYN Odin 2 Portal

Thu, 08 Oct 2026 16:15:25 +0000

When flashing the Armbian image for the Odin 2 Portal to the SD card and attempting to boot (on ROCKNIX ABL v1.2), the ABL can detect the SD card but does not detect the OS at all. This is on the latest version of the OS, with the GNOME/ubuntu image flashed via the official Armbian Imager. When will this be fixed?

What happened?

I used image https://github.com/armbian/community/releases/download/26.2.0-trunk.606/Armbian_community_26.2.0-trunk.606_Ayn-odin2_noble_current_6.18.19_gnome_desktop.img.xz and I found the device cannot boot into desktop. It stuck in the first boot wizard after message "Please use this account for your daily work from now on."

How to reproduce?

Insert the TF card to Odin2 device and power on

Wait for it to boot to desktop

Observation:
