Is there a way to share my Armbian screen with another computer, like I can do early with Ubuntu? I have my Armbian machine in one room, and I need to be able to control whatever is running there from my other computer in a different room. I can do this easily with Ubuntu's screen share option. How can I do that with Armbian? Peter

There is a syntax error in the default created file. # armbian-config created source /etc/network/interfaces.d/* # Local loopback auto lo iface lo init loopback # Interface eth0 allow-hotplug eth0 no-auto-down eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp That's on stretch or jessie.

Hi I have simple question. If i got power loss while executing nand-sata-install my cubieboard2 is dead now or there is some way to recover it? I have the same cb2 board. I install armbian-legacy-kernel-line. @admini know cb2 is EOL device but please give me a chance to get answers. thx :-)

I STFW now for hours but didn't find a solution to this: When I login to my new installed OdroidXU4 image of armbian minimal it says: [ Kernel and firmware upgrades disabled: armbian-config ] # armbian-config gives: 'command not found' So I searched for a way, a hint, an instruction how to enable those 'Kernel and firmware upgrades' without having to install 'armbian-config' with no avail. How can I archive this? Thank you in advance; Gerry

Greetings, I recently changed from an old loboris ubuntu distribution to armbian for my opi PC. I never had problems with it, it was just not getting updates for a long time since it's old and not a LTS. I never had problems with openvpn also.. installing from apt and creating ca's and users was a breeze. Now with armbian i simply cannot get it to work, i tried both with apt and compiling the latest version from source. I cannot get it to start. Doing systemctl start openvpn Job for openvpn.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status openvpn.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. journalctl -xe -- …

Hello, I freshly installed vanilla armbian bionic (Armbian_19.11.3_Bananapi_bionic_current_5.3.9) on my Banana Pi M1 with no other stuff.

Is there a way to change the first image after the login in the Olimex A20 Lime 2? Best Reguard

the system does not start with emms, the red light lights up and that's it, I tried to record another version of the uboot, the armbian icon appears and the wheel spins does not respond to pressing the keys. I couldn't write the issue to the bugtracker....

New bananapi M5, no net. initial boot and config failed, font missing characters would not allow me to edit networking entries. rebooted it with the power cord, started x by hand, Menu's totally different from 2 previous installs on rock64's. Finally found a terminal, and switched fonts in geany so now the keyboard is generally working. in geany, but not in armbian-config. I have edited the /etc/hosts file to setup my static address network, fixed resolv.conf and chattr +i it so nm can't destroy it. I have edited /etc/hostname but can't get it to to "take". ip a returns that eth0 is up but no ipv4 or ipv6 address can be seen …

Hi Members, I've installed the latest avaiable image for my lamobo Ri (Debian GNU/Linux 8, Release 4.9.7-sunxi) from: https://www.armbian.com/lamobo-r1/ I need to set the overscan parameters for my display, but can't find the formal used file: script.bin Please by what files/procedures are the values found in script.bin during boot are now replaced? Or does someone knows a newer armbian image for my BPI-R1 ? Regards Wolli

So.... I am the winner of a Inovato Quadra4K from a drawing at my amateur radio club meeting. Yeah! Cool! It runs a software called HamClock automagically.... BUT WAIT! There is MORE! You can exit that app and run other applications... Providing you have a mouse & keyboard (because I am a native WinWeenie) or keyboard if you are a Linux forever personage. It also has a wireless interface that I would like to configure so it doesn't have to have an Ethernet tail tied to a port on our ISP router. I would rather it was mounted to a HDMI TV or monitor. So, I need the keyboard (and because I am a longtime WinWeenie and rodent dependent) …

Hi, FYI, there might be an issue with old, slow hardware. Yesterday I installed the minimal Ubuntu 26.04 current 6.18.24 downloaded from https://armbian.com/boards/bananapi on my old Banana Pi on an similar old 8GB SD by sandisk. It runs normaly, but cannot set up the end0 during booting. Doing an "ip link set end0 up" manually on cli afterwards immediately activated end0, so my solution was using an script to do this command after booting. The AI aiding me thinks it's just the slow hardware causing a timeout when it should set up the interface during booting. Just wanted to let you know.

Hey. I don't know if this is the correct board. In another section i got a red warning, and i understand it in a way, to absolute not post anything in there. On the downloadpage for the Odroid HC4 i'm able to download this version: Armbian_21.08.9_Odroidhc4_focal_current_5.10.81_minimal.img.xz with this link: https://redirect.armbian.com/region/EU/odroidhc4/Focal_current_minimal But with "apt update ; apt upgrade" my HC4 stays on "Armbian 21.08.8 Focal with Linux 5.10.81-meson64" Do i have to do something else? Best regards, Tuffi

Hi, trying to nut out the problem of being unable to restart after installation of the OMV Wireguard plugin. I have removed the wireguard-tools package and installed the 4 rockchip64 edge 6.1.11 packages. It took me a while to realise that armbian-config was not installing the headers when selected but wondering if there's a necessary order for installation ie linux-source-6.1.11-edge-rockchip64 first maybe? Sorry I realise how tedious it is supporting folks who are feeling around in the dark but I've wasted so many hours starting from scratch I either have to give up or ask for a tip. TIA

Is there a way to specify Kernel branch as build parameter? -R

Dear all, I'm frequently losing GPIO interrupts on various boards, which seem to be caused by bursty processes. When I shield the cores that have those interrupts according to /proc/interrupts with e..g. "cset shield --cpu=0,1" , way less interrupts are lost (e.g. for 4kHz interrupts one in hours instead of once per minute). Most of these (ADC) interrupts are handled by my own kernel module, but couldn't find how to restrict them to e.g. CPU0, and they are not movable using /proc/irq/*/smp_affinity.

Hi, I have a neo3 that has been running without any issues for about a year. Today after I had to restart it and the device wouldn't boot anymore. I checked the systemd logs by mounting the sd card in my laptop and I can see that it didn't get to boot at all (as there are no systemd logs after the shutdown). I checked the card for filesystem issues, and it seems to be OK. But I have no idea how to fix this. I really don't want to flash again an image and start from zero as I have a good amount of software installed that would take a lot of time to setup again. If this is a problem with the bootloader, how can I troubleshoot it? I don't have a serial interface so I…

I recently had a sopine module start to fail on me. The symptom was most boots would fail partway through the boot. It would just stop, serial console output stops, the board powers off. Note that this is identical to lower power but in this case was not (I have multiple sopine modules and work with them daily). I successfully mitigated this issue by underclocking. Specifically I did three things: Underclocking in U-Boot I added the following line to `/boot/boot.cmd` and compiled the file: mw 0x1c20000 0x80000900 Per the Allwinner A64 manual (p84), this sets the CPU to the lowest clock speed possible: 240MHz. The formula use…

I have installed omv and pi-hole via armbian-config and I can get web access to omv but when I try to get to pihole on my_server_ip/admin I am getting OMV screen red with software failure, as omv web interface seems on the same ip only without webport. So how to get to pi-hole web interface? Cheers

Hi folks, I've been mucking about with my Orange Pi and Armbian appears to be the desktop for me. As you might have guessed from the topic though, my mouse cursor is invisible. Any ideas out there? I've got an original Orange Pi A20 Cheers Gebo

Hi all, I think i have made a mistake but i don't know what. Do someone know what goes wrong? Yesterday i have played with the PCIe port on the Orange Pi 4 with the original extension module. Plugged in a Dell (Ericsson) 5560 HSPA in the board and it works all fine. It was detected. Did not get the connection working with sim tray but ok. It works and reacts on AT commands. So far so good. Then i tries to plugin a wifi card (doesn't know exactly wich one. I thought Intel 6230) but didn't want to boot and a green led lights up on the PCIe board what i has never seen before. After that i thought: ''hmm, there is here laying a old Dell Latitude D630. …

Hello, I'm a newby in linux and armbian. I'm trying to force static ip on my sbc, I followed some hints on internet adding file to interface.d folder, directly in interface file (both created on purpose by me). Interface is enP4p65s0 and I replaced in exaples eth0 with this (auto enP4p65s0 iface... etc) but it seems none works. armbian-config seems to do nothing (it seems broken) Anyone can route me to some doc?

Hello Does anyone know how to toggle GPIO output at boot / power up as an overlay or similar? I have seen only examples that show GPIO in function and I didnt find much information how to toggle GPIO out function. Basically I would like to be able to turn LCD back light on when the board is booting and than to be able to control the brightness. (That I can do after the Linux is up and running) but before the Linux is up I still want to be able to control the LCD back light. Can anyone help with that matter?

Hi all. I am new in both OrangePi hardware and Armbian OS. I bought Orange Pi Zero 512 MB. I aim to develop a stand-alone device using this board. I am too confused with my readings. Do you have any idea for the following run rules together on the same board? (1) When I connect via serial (USB), it runs bash. It will ask user name and password. I can write a program, compile it, update the OS, and change settings. <This part is okay.> I want to use a GUI for this part. (2) When I supply 5-Volt power via extension pins, it runs stand-alone. It will not ask for a username and a password. It starts with an application developed in either Python or C programming lan…

I am new to armbian, and so far I managed to build a working image with some custom packages added and some removed by customizing `userpatches/lib.config`. Easy stuff and it's working great so far! Now I need to build some packages from sources and get them added to the resulting image. The usual way I would do this, would be installing a cross toolchain, having a staging dir with includes and libs from the dev packages I add to the image, etc. But after building the base armbian image, on my system I see I have two docker images related to armbian (ghcr.io/armbian/docker-armbian-build and armbian.local.only/armbian-build), and I wonder if maybe the "local on…

I'd like some help please. The ethernet device naming seems inconsistent and sometimes changes following reboots. Sometimes one interface comes up as eth0 and sometimes as eth1, and sometimes not at all. The enp1s0 interface seems to reliably come up, but not with the right config (sometimes it uses the config for enp1s0 and sometimes for eth0). I am trying to assign status IP addresses (on different networks) to each interface, but because of the unreliable bringup of the network interfaces, I can't get a config that starts up correctly and consistency on reboots or cold boots. As a test I ran the friendly-core-lite-focal from …

The usual way to get the a headless linux box up and running is to flash a disk image to a µSD card and then insert that card into the linux box, boot, answer some questions and it's done. Can I not do the same thing with an image file that I put on the µSD card (in addition to the µSD card having a complete linux OS that the box can boot from) and copy that to the emmc? Then pull the card and boot from the emmc? Does the image file used for a µSD card differ from the image file that should be written to the emmc? e.g. I have an armbian image, say "Armbian_25.2.2_Rockpi-s_bookworm_current_6.12.15_minimal.img.xz", on my µSD card at /media/…

Hello! In the process of setting up the settings in my new Armbian Bionic install on a 16 GByte installed MicroSD, I tried to set the clock preferences in the XFCE4 but as soon as I close the preferences application, it reverts to an invalid state and the clock disappears. It wasn't a fresh MicroSD and I'm concerned that it's trying to "save on a bad sector" or something when I set up the preferences. Is there a way I can test for the possibility that my MicroSD is wearing out? The power supply I'm using came with the board and has been adequate for all other OS uses. It may just be a file permission bug or something needing a "sudo". Either way, I'm conc…

Hello everyone, I purchased a single board computer and plan to use Armbian for my projects.; Could anyone suggest the best version of Armbian for beginners?? I want to ensure I have a stable and user friendly experience. I am curious about the initial setup process. Are there specific configurations or settings that I should focus on during installation to optimize performance? Also, I am interested in knowing about the community support available. Are there resources, forums or tutorials that you would suggest for newcomers to learn more about using Armbian effectively? Also i have check this; https://forum.armbian.com/topic/27407-complete-headle…

Hi, I am using Bluetooth and WiFi in the same time. Bluetooth is using for a whole time and WiFi 1 time per minute. So, I don't need WiFi connection very fast and do need most of network services. Due usage of AP6210 module, WiFi and BT shares the same communication channel (UART). I continuously send data (1Mbps) via Bluetooth. WiFi is used by my app 1 time per minute.The problem is that Bluetooth drops communication for about second. Reducing BT speed does not help. I noticed that when I download file from OPI board,that drops occurs much often. It seems that WiFi has a higher priority than BT in communication. Strange thing is that when I don't use WiFi network, i…

Hello, I own boards of two different manufactures, namely a Cubietruck and an Espressobin. Before a recent Kernel update these days I was still greeted with the following messages: Welcome to ARMBIAN 5.73 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.19.17-sunxi Welcome to ARMBIAN 5.73 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.19.18-mvebu64 But even after the update - IMO apt-get was telling we're going from 5.73 to 5.75 versions of the files the version number in the greeting is still 5.73 Welcome to ARMBIAN 5.73 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.19.20-sunxi Welcome to ARMBIAN 5.73 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.19.20-mv…

Good morning, I am trying to get a UART to RS485 converter to work on the UART2. The RX Pin is PA1, TX is PA0 and the direction Pin is PA6. How can I activate it in the system, do I have to activate something in the armbianENV.txt? I have overlays = uart2 Some help? Thanks and best regards! Lewis

Everything works, but I don't know why (;-) I upgraded to a new kernel 6.12.34-current-meson64 and also to the current u-boot. If I take a look at a current armbian image, every image.. vmlinux.. etc. is available in the boot folder, but no uImage. In my boot folder, however, in addition to the these files in the current armbian image, in my boot folder is still is a uImage from 2022. uname -r -> 6.12.34-current-meson6 So the current kernel is loaded and everything works. But if I now delete the uImage from 2022, the computer no longer boots. How does a current armbian image manage to boot without uImage? Is a uImage created at the first start? Manually…

Hello, More of an FYI for anyone else hitting the same issue. Booted my board up for the first time in a year or two, wifi working fine but then sudo update && sudo dist-upgrade && shutdown -r now Now wifi does not work on the new kernel 5.10. Seems the 8812au driver which has morphed into 88XXau but XX no longer includes 14. Instead there's a new driver git clone https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8814au.git apt install build-essential linux-headers-current-rockchip64 ARCH=arm64 make dkms_install modprobe 8814au Now wifi works again

Hi, I’m running Armbian 20.11 on a RockPro64. I have a Dell DW316 CD/DVD drive and would like to use it to burn data CDs, however so far I have not been able to get it to work. I have tried to burn using Brasero, KD3 and others but no luck. The Brasero log mentioned something about ‘adapter’ error but have tried a different USB cable. I was having an issue with ejecting media in the GUI with Armbian but managed to fix that but makes no difference for this (https://forum.armbian.com/topic/16863-failed-to-eject-media-warning/?tab=comments#comment-117961). The Drive makes a whirling noise for a few seconds then stops and does that repeated…

Hi everyone! I'm new to the armbian world (but not to linux in general). I have two Orange PI R1+ LTS.

I saw someone using ZFS on their Netgate hardware and their eMMC fails in a year. Would BTRFS significantly shorten lifespan of eMMC/SD card, like ZFS does?

So I had noticed the current stable version had advanced, I'm just curious if there is any big reasons to go through upgrading? I managed to bumbleF my way through getting Jessie to Stretch months and months ago, long enough to forget most of the process. I kind of halfheartedly tried last night and had quite a few issues (mostly regarding iptables, a sticky DHCP setting, PiHole breaking, among others), restored an SD image I had from April and then update/upgrade through apt to get all the software back to where it was, its working fine again. I'm only using it for some basic stuff limited to PiHole, OpenVPN, miniDLNA, MJPEG stream for my 3d prin…

I would like to permanently change at start up the UART permissions of /dev/ttyAML0 to give user, read write permissions always.

I downloaded the "Armbian 22.11 Jammy" image today and it won't boot, the red light won't come on most of the time (it does occasionally). I will no longer report the situation of my SD-card, power supply, and burning tools. In short, they are all fine, and I am a person who often burns Armbian' images, so I can say that I am very experienced. After repeated attempts, I downloaded "Orangepizero2_3.0.6_ubuntu_jammy_server_linux5.16.17" from the OPI official website, made a boot disk with the same method, and it can boot normally...

Hi, I have a Helios4 NAS I haven't used in over a year. This NAS have 4 HDDs set as a RAID5 in it with valuable information that I need access to. I've installed Armbian bookworm and found that there is no /proc/mdstat file from which to recover the RAID5 array. I am now at a loss on how to rebuild the RAID5 array and regain access to the information on these drives, from what I read, mdadm was removed as a feature in more modern distros and is no longer used. I've installed mdadm however still no /proc/mdstat from which to recover the RAID array. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to rebuild this array and use it in my bookworm d…

Hey, I'm trying to setup the ports of the switch correctly but I don't arrive anywhere. I'm using the mainline armbian for my R1. There are different files in /etc/network(e.g.): -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 495 18. Jun 2017 interfaces.r1 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 610 18. Jun 2017 interfaces.r1router -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 359 18. Jun 2017 interfaces.r1switch But even if I completely copy a configuration file to /etc/network/interfaces there are still no packets arriving at the Ports named lan1 to lan4. I checked this with tcpdump -i interfaceName, but all packets are arriving at eth0. Only some IPv6 packets are arriving at the lan-ports. …

Most of the time our Arm computer does nothing and the CPU is around 40º, and therefore no fan is needed. But sometimes they work a lot and the fan is really necessary. So I wonder if a 5V fan connected to the gpio pins can be used and that the same board sends power to the fan when for example the CPU exceeds 60 °. And below 60º the orangepi that cuts the current to the fan. Can it be done without external components?

Hi, Working on a project that will manage and monitor batteries from a solar installation and wanting to see how low I can reduce its power consumption. Out of the box consumption is approx. 480mWatts. Currently using Armbian 21.05.8 Buster Don't need: USB WiFi Any display output and Only need eth0 for possibly 10 mins a day. Any suggestion on how to power down specific components such as above? Interestingly shutdown via the command line increase the power consumption to around 700mW?? Thanks, Rob.
