A problem I'm having with my fresh install of Armbian Bionic on my Libre Renegade board is that I cannot use the user login due to read-only file system warnings. Root login does allow more freedom, but comes with its own drawbacks. Prior to writing Armbian to the chip from Windows, I formatted the chip exFAT. I've reinstalled Armbian mutiple times on multiple chips, but even the recommended A1 SD doesn't work. I'm not sure where the problem lies. Is this strictly a hardware issue? Is there any non-extensive ways to workaround or fix the problem in the terminal? I'm not too familiar with Linux terminology, but can figure out common terms. I can supply more in…

Hello, I will use the integrated CAN-Controller with the actual version of Armbian Bionic (or Buster) on the BananaPi-M1 Actually it is not possible to activate the CAN-Bus. I had activate the CAN in the armbian-config. After a reboot I the CAN0 is not integrate in the list from "ifconfig -a". What are the steps to activate the CAN-Bus on the BananaPi M1. Many thanks, André

HI all, having finally got my Nanopi m4 v2s setup as I want them ( bionic ) and pretty stable too. I would like to setup a nightly backup , I have Postgres installed so would want that data backed up to . Do any of you have any suggestions as to the best way / strategy to do this ? I have external SSD' and USB drives available

This is on a 4GB NanoPi M4 v1. There are a number of files matching the spec '/etc/ssh/ssh_host_*' but they are all zero bytes, which renders the machine inaccessible by ssh. I'm pretty sure this is happening on every install, I've been troubleshooting and reinstalled several times from the latest image and ssh was not working at any time.

I now have a RockPi4a running Armbian_20.02.0-rc1_Rockpi-4b_bionic_legacy_4.4.210_desktop from eMMC. Now i wanted to see how i most easily can experiment with newer distributions, such as 5.x. The radxa debian images for rockpi4 use a lot of partitions and it was quite easy to reformat the eMMC to have two system partitions, install different linux versions into them, and then configure the boot script to allow booting from different partitions/kernels via serial console and there selecting the desired kernel. In Armbian, it seems booting uses the boot.cmd script to boot the kernel. Is there a simple example of the boot script with a m…

Hello Everyone, Yesterday Domoticz released a new version but requires now GLIBC-2.28. Armbian Bionic has GLIBC-2.27. Users with a Raspberry Pi need to upgrade from Debian Stretch to Buster. But what i know is Armbian for the OrangePi One plus based of Ubuntu 18.04 what is based on Debian Buster. So in my opinion it should be possible to run GLIBC-2.28 instead of GLIBC-2.27. But the question is: how could i fix that?? Thank you for all help!

I need your help. I be very grateful. The OS is "Armbian_20.02.0-rc1_Orangepilite_buster_current_5.4.14_desktop"

Hello, I'm coming to ask for help because I'm having a problem with plex and my external hard drive. Everything works well except that I do not see the folders at the folders of my external hard drive with the Plex interface, this is really frustrating especially since I can go to my hard drive via the file manager. I think this is a legal problem but I cannot resolve it. Could you help me ? Thanks in advance =)

I have a small group of Orangepi R2's that I'm setting up as remote snort monitors. It's my first experience with Armbian, and Orangepi and I'm very impressed. I have an odd issue that is puzzling, not of practical importance to what I'm doing, but annoying none the less. The set up I'm running is based on the main Armbian buster "Armbian_20.02.0-rc1_Orangepi-r1_buster_current_5.4.14. Linux probe1 5.4.14-sunxi #rc1 SMP Sat Jan 25 15:19:01 CET 2020 armv7l GNU/Linux I've substantially modified that to use systemd-networkd, systemd-resolved and systemd-timesyncd.

Hello guys, I am currently in the middle of setting up my GlusterFS cluster on 3x Odroid HC2s. I am currently using the standard Ubuntu images but hit some walls with them. The worst wall is that the Samba package does not ship with gluster library (glusterfs.so) and I can't auto manage Samba shares via GlusterFS. Does anyone know whether support in Armbian for Gluster, Samba and CTDB is better? Would you recommend to try it? Cheers Sherry

After I edit the u-boot settings in armbian-config, do I then need to select "install" to update the boot loader each time? Edit: figured out by looking thru /var/log/armbian-hardware-monitor.log that I do not.

Hi, I installed RetrOrangePi ( which is built on Armbian ) on my Orange Pi Zero 2 Plus H3. I have used display from car monitor via TV out. I successfully set resolution, but I found out that the display has better viewing angles when it's rotated 180°. Is there any way how to rotate screen?

Hi, I've seen the question asked many times but there is no working solution for this( ? ) Hardware: Odroid N2 500GB Samsung USB3.1 T5 SSD What i've done: Downloaded the Odroid N2 image Put in on the SSD It boots and it installs without problems. but with a problem and that it's NOT resizing the partition like it does when you install on a SD-card. I edited the boot.ini and the fstab to use /dev/sda1. I even edited the /usr/lib/armbian/armbian-resize-filesystem to hardcode /dev/sda1 into the file When i run sudo systemctl start armbian-resize-filesystem nothing happens. Well if i added an extra partition it's gone after that. Lu…

Hello! Really appreciating armbian having good notes on how to get up and running on a specific device. Thanks! I have these wifi cards, RTL8821AE. If I `apt install hostapd` I can get hostapd to start up. If I use `hostapd-realtek` it doesn't. Some of the armbian docs say look for and try '/usr/sbin/hostapd-rt', but I can't figure out how to get that; Maybe that note is out of date? It starts up, but doesn't seem to work. I have wlp0s0 in a bridge with the LAN ports. It seems like I'm able to associate to my SSID, but nothing's going across the bridge. No DHCP is happening, etc. I'm just trying to make a access point rig…

Hi guys, I am currently working on backing up my armbian installation. Following situation: boot: sd card file system: nfs root backing up the file system is not an issue, there I am using a rsync logic that transfers only changed files, which works great. The problem is with the boot files. In case of sd card failure I need an image that I can quickly restore to a new sd card, without the whole file system, as it is on nfs root and backed up differently. Now my question is: what is the best way to create an image file with only the boot logic? On Raspbian this is simple, as the boot device is a fat32 partition, but on …

Hi, My Armbian Debian Buster install has the package "armbian-firmware" installed at version 19.11.3.346. Since a few days/weeks, the package is no longer available on the APT repository. I couldn't find a reference in the documentation/forum about its removal, so I don't know if its absence is intentional or due to a bug. If intentional, I should probably install the regular linux-firmware packages from Debian instead? Or will the armbian-firmware package return? # cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/armbian.list deb https://apt.armbian.com buster main buster-utils # apt clean # apt update Hit:1 http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian buster InRelease Hi…

Don't get me wrong i use SAMBA because i have not played so much with NFS. I agree with you, i have my weekly battle VS. SAMBA when my NAS reboot, the remote shares do not stay in the same mounted folder after reboot. It is in (OMV). It could be you had some nice tips? It was because of that i asked ;-) I have read alot of articles about NFS. So only if you had the golden trick or something you use in the daily? Thanks.

Hi, I'm working with a nanopi m4 for the first time I would appreciate help on how to hook up this board to my laptop I want to install FriendlyDesktop on my laptop that has ubuntu installed in it I'm referring to this - http://wiki.friendlyarm.com/wiki/index.php/NanoPi_M4#Get_Started If I put the nanopi m4 zip file onto the sd card and insert it into the board, will I be able to see the Friendlydesktop start up on my laptop screen and use my laptop keyboard and touchpad as keyboard and mouse for the nanopi?

Hello, I'm new to Armbian. I've recently tried Olimex's image for a13 (https://github.com/OLIMEX/build). I saw (and read) on armbian's guide that there's the possibility to customize images build. I need to add two specific drivers (smsc95xx for my eth interface and uvcvideo for my webcam) to kernel. I can find their sources in build\cache\sources\linux-mainline\linux-5.0.y\drivers, but they are not listed in various "modules.order" files (ok, so that's why my devices doesn't get loaded). If I want to add these modules to kernel the only way is to create a patch for "modules.order" in userpatches\kernel (if it's the right directory), or there's a …

It doesn't differ (much). Major difference is that when you start with a Debian / Ubuntu you start with a DI (Debian Installer) and install Debian to some drive. That process is identical on all x86 Ubuntu based Linuxes. Only background / colours, configurations, perhaps an application / GRUB versions is changed ... We only provide "LIVE" image because of different hardware design / scenarios. Its more suitable this way. Once you login into Armbian, all tutorials and install cases will work the same way as they work on particular Debian / Ubuntu version https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials with rare exceptions when application does not come with arm/arm64 b…

Hi guys, does anyone have an experience with running webtorrent-hybrid or webtorren-cli (https://www.npmjs.com/package/webtorrent-cli) on Olinuxino MICRO or similar?

I'm a newbie to the NanoPi M4 and haven't been able to find helpful material regarding my doubts Any help would be appreciated 1. How do I configure the GPIO pins to function as a UART4 TX and RX pins? 2. The level signals of UART4 are of 3V but the supply to the board is 5V. All standard buck converters are of 5V to 3.3V so how would I go about that?

Hi all, I am wanting to setup a mail server on my Helios4.

Or is there a better option? Thanks in advance

Hi, yesterday i did as usual an apt-get update/upgrade on my Armbian 19.11.3 (on a good old and always well working Bananapi M1). After that the desktop starts, but without showing the taskbar anymore. It was some kind of invisible, when i clicked the the upper left corner, the menu drops down. Unfortunately nearly nothing starts by clicking. The preferences are shown without any icons. Ok, time for a fresh install. I took the latest stable image Armbian Bionic 19.11.6 and put it on a SD card. System starts in console mode, i did all the setup stuff and installed the desktop. But the fresh installed desktop also started without the taskba…

Hello. I saw all topics about armbian on Q8, Q88 tablets, but some of them are dead with no success, some say, that it is working somehow for someone. I understand, that armbian more tended to be for boards, but come on! There is a huge pile of tablets, that uses same processors, memory, wifi and other chips, and there is a sun5i-a13-q8-tablet.dtb in /boot/dtb of an image of armbian. So, I compiled custom Armbian image using olinuxinoA13 configuration as there wasn't any for q8-tablet. Wrote or burned it with USB Image Writer (I'm on Linux Mint 19 Cinamon) on SD card, mounted it, edited ArmbianEnv.txt line disp_mode=800x480p60. Put SD in tablet, pushed on button... s…

In the latest image for NanoPi M1 Plus, I enable the analog audio I/O on the card by adding overlays=analog-codec in /boot/armbianEnv.txt But the microphone on the card is disabled by default, because the ALSA control "Mic1 Playback Switch" is set to false by default on the card. Worse still, this mixer control does not appear in the alsamixer GUI, and the only way to set to true is to use the amixer command line utility, for example with: amixer cset name="Mixer Capture Switch" on on I can do this inside a first boot script, and then ALSA will persist the state between reboots. But does not seem ideal, and took me a very long time to …

Hi everyone, I'm an experienced Debian user but it's my first time with Armbian running on an Orange Pi Zero. I'd like to make it a DB node by running MySQL. As there is no MySQL available in the apt repository, I tried MariaDB but during the installation (tried multiple times) I don't get asked for a password and need to run mysql --skip-grant-tables which leads to db failure, permission problems (like root can access without password while all the other users are blocked). Installation from source code fails due to limited memory. How can I seamlessly get mysql-server to work on Armbian?

OrangePi Zero headless server Debian Buster with Armbian Linux 4.19.62-sunxi armbianmonitor http://ix.io/26Dp Selected to install Sonarr in armbian-config which completes without error, but armbian-config does not indicate that Sonarr is now installed (i.e., I can still select it and do the whole thing again). Appears that armbian-config installs Sonarr as a service, but it doesn't appear to be running after I reboot (http://192.168.1.99:8989 gives error connection refused). Looks like Sonarr relies on mono, but mono has not been installed at /usr/bin/mono. Did I fail to do some required post-armbian-config steps?

Edit: Issue is solved, see here. It's an application problem but according to an extensive Google research this does not seem to be a common problem of Samba, so it might be an integration problem with the environment it is running in. The setup: Armbian 19.11.6 (Debian Buster) running the current kernel on a NanoPi M4V2, offering network shares via Samba. Clients are Windows 10 and a BananaPi running Armbian (Debian Buster 4.19.y kernel) as well. The observation: When downloading (large) files from the Samba share to Windows 10, the download speed very often suddenly drops down to zero and stays on that rate (forever). This can be best…

What is the supported way, if any, to redirect /var/log.hdd to a directory located on a real HDD drive? One of my systems has an eMMC to boot and operate from, and a HDD hooked up on the USB3 port. "Ideally" I'd like to use only the HDD, but the poor/incomplete USB3 boot support on the Rock64 V2 (with Bionic at least) had me to buy an eMMC and live quietly with it. As it is, I'd like to move out of the eMMC all the data that is either written often, or that it could get bigger with time passing. For the logs, however, I don't think to have found a clean way to support the relocation of /var/log.hdd on a different drive/partition, unless I hack the armbian-raml…

Hi, I am using Armbian 5.90 on an BananaPi as a RTL-TCP server for an RTL-SDR stick which plugs in the USB port. Everything work fine since more than a year. Now since one of the latest updates, the RTL-TCP server doesn't work anymore 24/7. After a while, I can not connect to the server anymore. I studied the logs and it seems, that kernel/udev/upowerd powers off the USB-port where the RTL-SDR stick is plugged. The stick reinitializes, but the binding of the stick to the running server gets lost. There seems to be something new to the kernel/system which cyclically drops the USB connection to my stick. Any ideas, how to …

Hello, I have the following problem: A custom board (H5) doesn't reboot using the reboot command. Same problem from u-boot using reset command. If you check the log, all is normal for the halt or power off proccess. The problem happens when the board is going to make the power on, it hangs, and you can't see anything using the debug serial. As a solution, i can reset the voltage regulators using a digital GPIO pin. Of this way i am able to reset the board. But i need a soft solution, and of course, if linux itself makes a reboot it should activate the digital GPIO pin in this custom board. So my question is: …

Of the boards supported by Armbian, which do you prefer for multiple audio devices and audio related applications? I need to control two audio streams, in and out each and add information to the streams as appropriate. I would like to use as little external hardware as possible so stereo mic or dual mic input and stereo out would be awesome. I'm a little overwhelmed by the choices, so opinions are definitely welcome here.

I got it working on the older jessie images, but now I have the armbian buster image. I've searched but can't find anyway to make it work. The armbian page shows it as tested hardware, but it still doesn't work out of the box it seems. Is there a working guide or are these just not working?

Hello, I need to install linux-headers, but the old version is in the repository. Where can I find the current version(5.99)?

Not sure if this is considered an appropriate request for the Armbian forum, but I'll give it a try. New installation of Buster server 4.19.62-sunxi on OPiZero 512MB, with 32GB SanDisk A1 card. I installed CUPS (and Samba) via armbian-config, added myself to lpadmin; I can access the web interface. "Add printer" sees my Brother HL-2270DW on wifi, but no matter how I add the printer, I get one of a variety of errors when attempting to print a test page. CUPS finds and installs the printer at dnssd://Brother%20HL-2270DW%20series._ipp._tcp.local/ but when I print a test page, CUPS says it can't find the printer. So I change the URI to the printer's IP address on m…

So i recently bought an Orange Pi 3 and the place where I want to set it up only has a VGA monitor, that's why I decided to buy this generic HDMI to VGA adapter. The adapter works correctly with my laptop but I'm having some issues using it with the Orange Pi 3, the adapter does have video output but it randomly loses the signal and goes to black and after a short time it comes back. I initially suspected it was having some power delivering issues, so I decided to plug in an old MP3 charger I had (500mA) to the micro USB port in the adapter (which is there for this cases, I think), but even with external power connected to the adapter it still loses the signal from time t…

Hello, I try to compile node.js on my BananaPI M2+. Everly now an then I get segmentation faults, internal compiler errors.

Hi, I have a Banana Pi-R1. I want to use this device as a customized router. I need an operating system with a graphical user interface.

I tested LXDE on Bananian but it wasn't successful.

Hello, I have a Quectel EC25 modem which works fine on OPi Zero Plus and other boards, now I'm trying it in an OPi Zero Plus 2 H5 board, it loads the network interface but it doesn't gets good internet, some IPs respond but most others(google.com por example) don't. I'm wondering if there is any drivers or incompatibility issue. Any help will be welcome. Thanks in advance, Alejandro Edit: In this images I show: 1- the ppp0 network interface 2- the lsusb command which shows the modem 3- A ping that works and a ping that doesn't 4- The logs loading the OS, it freezes on the last line

The devil is in the details. Armbian was partially working so I started over to study the process more closely ! It seems Geek Buying is NOT the same Wifi as WiFi Chip: RTL8189 on Gear Best in the X96 Mini. iComm SV8051P is not working with Linux and actually not very good on Android 7.1.2 as delivered. HDMI Audio on 5.4 is WIP as Linux Meson discloses.

I am struggling to make an external RTC work. "i2cdetect -y 7" reports that RTC at address 68 is alive. I have added in the following lines: echo ds1307 0x68 > /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-7/new_device hwclock -f /dev/rtc -s Could be a possible reason that hwclock is already linked with internal RTC? Is it possible that DS1307 is not recognised? If I do "modprobe ds-1307" I got the answer: "modprobe: FATAL: Module rtc-ds1307 not found in directory /lib/modules/5.3.11-rockchip64" Could this be the reason? The driver for ds-1307 doesn't exist? How can I get it? P.S. : The OS is Armbian Buster with Linu…

I am using an Orange pi win plus (Allwinner A64, 2GB ram), running Armbian Bionic with Linux 5.3.9-sunxi64 The board has an 2MB on-board spi flash and I want to flash bootloader in it. The spi flash can be correctly detected in the system (showing /dev/mtdblock0). But the "install" tool in armbian-config can't install the bootloader into the flash. When I selected "Install/Update the bootloader on SPI Flash" and confirmed the warning notice, the tool printed "OK" immidiately and there is actually nothing written to the flash. After using "sudo bash -x armbian-config", I found the tool executed a command: dd if=/usr/lib/linux-u-bo…

Hi I am looking to download the u-boot files for my espressobin that should be here: https://dl.armbian.com/espressobin/u-boot/ as pointed out by https://www.armbian.com/espressobin/ but they've been giving 404 for a while.

Hey there, has someone got bluetooth working on his Banana Pi M2 Berry? I looked up that the bluetooth chip (ap6212) is connected via UART3, so I changed the "ttyS1" to "ttyS3" in /etc/default/ap6212, but the service 'ap6212' crashes with several input/output errors. While reading about similar problems with different boards I discovered that the ttyS3 / UART3 is not enabled on my device, at least "dmesg | grep ttyS3" does not find anything, while "dmesg | grep ttyS0" and "dmesg | grep ttyS1" does show that these devices are enabled. There adding the lines "overlays=uart3" / "param_uart3_rtscts=1" helped them, but these lin…

I am experiencing frequent kernel panics with the RockPro64 board and assume it could be a power consumption issue with the SSD (PCIe NVMe M.2). I tested a variety of different SSDs, with the Cruzial P1 being the most reliable. Is it possible to manually throttle an SSD within Armbian, forcing it to consume less power? In my case, peak performance is not really important. This would allow me to further validate my thesis. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
