Hi I've got both left and right channels working of my analog audio jack. The quality is quite good as long as Master audio isn't set above volume 15 - 20 or so. Toggling DAC or DAC-Reversed in Alsamixer will enable or disable the physical left and right physical speakers of ear buds. However! On both channels, the left and right software signals are mixed. So if I use "aplay stereo-file.wav", I hear left+right mixed through my separate left ear. Listening to my right earbud, same story: I hear left+right audio mixed. Please help, I can't even find any snd_ module flags to mess with. I've no pulseaudio installed on this latest stable server edition of …

Hi. I have a Rock S0 that used to have Armbian 24.11 that I build from source, with these options: BRANCH=current BUILD_MINIMAL=yes KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no RELEASE=bookworm NETWORKING_STACK=network-manager ROOTFS_TYPE=btrfs I have installed three device overlays on this board for SPIdev and LED GPIOs. I shared these overlays in the Rock S0 subforum. They worked fine on 24.11 and earlier. But then I updated to 25.2 using apt upgrade. Now, my user overlays seem to be ignored. They don't do anything and it doesn't look like they were even attempted to be loaded, because I cannot find any reference to them in dmesg or anything. I tried removing …

Thanks to help in another thread to solve our eMMC problems, we are making progress getting Armbian working well on the H2+ boards we have. Now we would like to be able to make a snapshot of the eMMC device and then be able to write the whole image to another board. I have been able to create a single file backup using both these methods (done after booting from SD). The created files appear to be the same size. dd if=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=16M | gzip -c > /mnt/usbflash/emmc.img.gz or ./backup_block_device.sh (from https://code.online-mp.pl/svn/public/backup_block_device/trunk/) To write the image, we'd like to use FEL. …

Does anybody here have experience with the Beagleboard ? It doesn't seem to be supported on this site. It also seems to be rather old? But it's the only board I can find with open hardware/firmware. Any opinions, hints, ideas, other suggestions for truly open hardware?

For what it's worth, and one of the most discussed topics can now hopefully finally closed: Mali in mainline Did not try it, but the source is trustworthy to my humble knowledge... Still no open source release, but I guess it silences a lot of people questioning for Mali support! For the real Mali die hards, here is a link to some more background info: Free Electrons

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, new here. I'm trying to build a headless environment for my ORDOID N2 based on a stable Debian (hence Buster), but I need some packages which aren't in the Buster repo (e.g. a CLang >7). I've tried following some instructions I found for adding Bullseye testing repo, and it makes the packages available, but the installation doesn't go well. Is this an unreasonable thing to attempt? Can anyone offer any guidance for how to get newer packages onto my Buster build? (anyone know when Bullseye will become the stable release?)

I have read the other thread about this. If that one would not be closed I would have posted in there. My boottime is around 45 seconds and I would like to have it (much) faster. I run the V 20.11.06 Buster current 5.9.14 on two RockPi's 4 A with uBoot, NVME and no SD-card. I bought the TTL-Cable and it gives a lot, but the pause I am complaining about is entierly after all of that. The pause comes when minicom says "Rockpi4 Login:". The RockPi seems still to be "booting", black screen on and of, NVME Led blinking burst from time to time (no pattern), for ~15 seconds. Then I get the red Logo with the circling dots, they circle 7-8 times and only the…

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…

I am looking for alternative working image, better than on official web pages. I know story about Allwinner and its software support but do you know smthing alternative working image? If I remember when I bough this board about year ago it had problem with overheating (H3 chip on 1.6ghz) and shutdowning cores and I must enable it manually even cpu temperature returned back to safe value.

Hi guys, I have a BPI-M3, and wanted to roll my own build, given the current dissatisfaction with the builds provided by Sinovoip themselves. In any case, I have tested this locally, and it builds a bootable sd card, which works on UART only. It doesn't have working ethernet or WiFi, but at least you can interact with it over UART. Please feel free to review and comment on the script, and let me know if there are any issues running in your environment (ie, prerequisites that I have already, and make an invalid assumption that it is present). As per the comment inside the script, it will wipe the sdcard specified, and repartition with one partition whic…

Hi! There are Images for an old/original Lemaker "Banana Pi" up to 03/2021 in the archive, but from that time onward it seems like only "Banana Pi Pro" is supported with new images. Is it possible and save to use such "Banana Pi Pro"-image for the old Banana Pi too or should I stick to the last archived version of the "Banana Pi"-image? Datasheet looks almost identically, both with same SOC Allwinner20 and CPU CortexA7 and only the SD-slot and GPIO-pins are different, so I thought I'd try the Pro-Image, which also does install and run ok. But I have strange issues running some software (iobroker) afterwards, so I'm not sure if this migh…

Hello, I have installed the Armbian image for Rock Pi S (https://www.armbian.com/rockpi-s/) released 19th of October 2022 on my Rock Pi S and it boots fine. However, if I update the linux kernel (using apt-get install linux-dtb-edge-rockchip64 linux-image-edge-rockchip64) this breaks the image and it will be stuck on starting kernel the next time I reboot. These packages are not installed automatically, but are listed as kept back. However, since they break the system they should maybe not be possible to install.

I've been messing with my OPi5+ for several days now and I cannot for the life of me get my USB Wifi dongle to work. When I input " lsusb " the OPi shows my dongle as plugged in but it just doesn't work. I've tried to compile the Wifi dongle drivers (RTL8188eu) manually but that fails with a "python2 error". I've tried updating the Armbian headers and firmware and nothing works. I've tried both the OPi OS and Armbian OS and on both images the board will just not read my Wifi dongle. My USB Bluetooth dongle Plugs and Plays just fine, only the Wifi dongle is inoperable. So my question is how in the hell do I get the Edimax N150 USB Wifi dongle to work…

Hey fellas I have FOUR different armbian devices (one official armbian, three running ophub's armbian) which all seem to struggle with network throughput at high latency connections. It is not a cpu issue and this doesn't occur on x86 debian. Here's the odd thing. If I connect an ethernet usb dongle, like rtl8152b I get the full throughput even at high latency. What??? So it's a nic issue? I thought maybe the onboard ethernet isn't well supported by the kernel so I got a nanopi neo4 with onboard realtek gigabit running official armbian 6.12.3x ... AND it's slow too. Any onboard nic with armbian is slow in my tests. …

If you are reading this you've probably discovered that there are a few things about the Orange Pi series of boards that can be frustrating. I know I have been.. I purchased an Orange Pi PC and two Orange Pi Ones anticipating Pi bliss at a fraction of the cost of the Raspberry equivalent. I tried, and tried hard, to load distro after distro of various linux flavors onto micro SD cards with many a blank screen or an aborted boot attempt.. Orange Pi site distros, laboris distros, Armbian distros.. nothing seemed to make a difference. Reading about power supply issues, ornery boot processes, and overscan issues I was really beginning to think this was m…

I need to introduce a boot delay on my OrangePiPc to allow time for other network elements in my setup to boot, otherwise it will not get an IP address after recovering from a power interruption (common where I am). In Raspbian, this can done by adding a 'boot_delay=n' line in /boot/config.txt, however I don't see this file in Armbian. How can this be accomplished on Armbian 5.20?

Hi all, I have a strange problem, when I make any file system changes, I can count to 10, pull out the power, and my changes are lost. My application sometimes requires changing of a settings file, and then quickish disconnection of power by the user (I know its not good, but it's a fact of the product) My current solution is to flush the write cache when I save the settings, I forget the command name, but that isn't ideal as other changes such as logging is lost. I'm using the armbian debian release at the moment. How can I change this write-cache timing to something like 2 seconds? Also, is this an SD-card technology issue or will the issue…

hi: I want to use my orange pi to control some network devices which has rs232 console port. so I enable uart1 as 2 pin mode, and buy some rs232-ttl converter board. then I found these rs232-ttl converters is not working under my situation. they do work when I use my PC to control orange pi (so this is RS232 -> TTL). they don't work when I use my orange pi to control rs232 device (so this is TTL-> RS232, not working). it seems there is something difference between RS232->TTL and TTL->RS232. now I wonder if TTL->RS232 possible? or I need enable 4 pin mode and find another kind of converter for the work? thanks a …

Hello. I use Retrorange Pi on Orange pi pc+ and the kernel includes a uinput module for implementing console utility management from the gamepad. Unfortunately, in this 5.3.0-dev-rc8 core, the CPU temperature information does not work. I switched kernel to 5.4.20-current via armbian-config. In this kernel, the cpu temp readings work, but unfortunately, there is no uinput in the modules. Can I somehow build this module separately for 5.4.20-current without recompiling the entire kernel? Or is it possible for respected developers to re-enable the module in future kernel releases? With best regards, Sergey

After this, for me nextcloud is no more reachable. I get: Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request.

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

Hello I'm new in Armbian. I'm trying to connect one Orange Pi Zero 2 to a 3d printer (board Cheetah v1.2) using UART in order to install Klipper to control the printer.

After investigation I found failure start of systemd-tmpfiles: systemd-tmpfiles[210]: Failed to fstat() file /dev/btrfs-control: Bad file descriptor systemd-tmpfiles[210]: Failed to fstat() file /dev/net: Bad file descriptor systemd-tmpfiles[210]: Failed to fstat() file /dev/net/tun: Bad file descriptor I setup debug loglevel and got this: systemd-tmpfiles[210]: Failed to fstat() file /dev/btrfs-control: Bad file descriptor systemd-tmpfil…

Hello. I've an BananaPi H3 with Armbian Stretch 5.73 and 4.19.17-sunxi. I use this with USB HDD for Plex DLNA media server, Amule and other service. I've a strange problem with network interface. The Bananapi ( IP 192.168.1.41) is connect to a Mikrotik RB260 switch. in the same swith is connected a NAS ( IP 192.168.1.21). The switch is connect to the router RB4011 (IP 192.168.1.1).

Hello. I have a task: «Find fail-safety, high stability SBC device, which can work 24/7/365» For the past year I have been monitoring for 30 Orange PI PC2 device`s in different locations. (I used Armbian images on all device`s and very like it.) I observe the following errors: -deadlock (I can repeat by set low voltage on laboratory power supply. As result - device is deadlock, green diode is lighting, only reboot can help; -reboot (no any error`s in logs, just information about booting, just like device was rebooted) On this moment I split up into three groups: Group A: Error not happen, or less, then 1/60 days (25% of all my device) Group B: E…

Hello, I've bought a USB Bluetooth adaptor on Amazon and wanted to try it on my Armbian device, an Orange Pi Zero. The installed system is Armbian Focal (Ubuntu). That adaptor seems to have the Realtek rtl8761a chip, according to the error message in syslog. The firmware could not be found. It should be included in the "firmware-realtek" package but that doesn't exist. I couldn't find anything else that provides that firmware. That USB adaptor has an average rating, a second one I've also ordered has a better rating. Both have the same chip inside. Both don't work on a current Windows 10 because the unsigned driver from Realtek (to be downloaded fr…

Hi, Just did a new armbian build Armbian_21.02.0-trunk_Orangepipc_buster_current_5.10.6_desktop and flashed the image. It works ok but after some reboot times the auto login to desktop is not working anymore and it prompts for user login. Tried quite a few times to re-install but always after a few shutdown and start again cycles it reverts to login prompt and not auto login. Also tried to find a solution in the forum but the files and config involved in previous solutions is no longer valid in the newer builds (/usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/60-lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf or /etc/default/nodm). So the questio…

Hi all, I'm new to armbian, I have a nanopi r4s SBC, and I want to know that if armbian nanopi r4s enabled(applied) `overlays-00-add-oc-opp-rk3399.patch` by default? i.e. https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/patch/kernel/archive/rockchip64-5.10/overlays-00-add-oc-opp-rk3399.patch I really need this patch to bootst up performance, otherwise I have to build armbian by myself.

Hi, not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I just dug up an old banana pi m2plus (with on board wifi) and flashed the latest Armbian_21.08.1_Bananapim2plus_bullseye_current_5.10.60 on a class 10 samsung evo micro sd. When booting for the first time I had a monitor, keyboard and LAN attached and successfully set up users with the wizard and apt upgrade the system. Now I tried to set up wifi with "nmtui-connect SSID " after this guide: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/ where SSID is the SSID of my network, but I get "No such connection 'SSID' " and I can only confirm. If I open the networkmanager with it looks like …

My OPi Zero is not accessible via SSH after installing the new supported image Armbian 22.02 Jammy. After the install, the device is up and ping-able. Any attempt to SSH in with `ssh root@<ip-address>` ends in a `ssh: connect to host 192.168.88.9 port 22: Connection timed out` error. When I reboot the board and try again, it's still the same issue. A ping with `ping 192.168.88.9` works. For completeness, I tried also with the edge instead of the current jammy image. Same error.

Hi! Yesterday I get my first build of a NanoPi port of pi4j (http://pi4j.com/) running. A simple test with a double color led on a NanoPi M1 works fine. Actually I am going to adapt the board specific code. Hence some questions are open. Is there a simple way to differ NanoPi Boards by SW (NanoPi M1, Neo and Air) to set the correct board? Memory size of the board The Raspberry code uses the revision string of /proc/cpuinfo to retrieve this informations. But this info is PI specific. Any idea how to get this info? Using C is not a problem - pi4j is a mix of Java and native libraries. Peter P.S: Java Example File - …

So I've got this 88SE9215 based board that is similar to the ones already posted except that it uses single SAS port instead of x4 SATA ports. The board comes with a splitter cable 1 SAS to 4 SATA + LED head. The cable is completely compatible with the board as the seller claims. I will attach pictures below. The board is detected (as per below), but if I attach disks they do not show up in the system at all. dmesg has no new messages and the disk is shutdown after 20-30 seconds (parks head and stops the motor) with lsscsi showing nada. Any thoughts on why I cant get it work? Now when I plug this board and boot, from `dmesg | grep ata` I get 4 new …

Hello, I have been using armbian for a couple of months now developing a small product, and this is my issue... When the OS boots, it gets directly to the Desktop environmet and never asks for a password (unless for a supervisor function form the terminal) I need one of the following options... 1) OS ask for password before let yo do anything on the desktop 2) It boots onto a console and ask for password (then you can manually start the Desktop) Any Help will be apreciated..! Best Regards

Hi all, I have Armbian installed in a TVbox (5.88). I activated ssh, xrdp and samba to create my headless and standalone server. I managed to make the 3 services to work. When I reboot the machine I am not able to see the samba shares, I can not ssh or use xrdo unless I log myself to the machine. I have been searching the internet for this information but I still did not find it. Could you help me to configure to make everything working even If I do not log in?? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I had Armbian based on kernel 4.19 installed on emmc. It was running pretty good for a long time but recently it was automatically upgraded to kernel 5.3.9 and started to restart while booting. I had collected a log (see attachment), It looks like it was unable to find root partition and this is most likely caused by issue with axp20x_device_probe. Is this a known issue? Is there any remedy? minicom.log

Hi, I have and Orange Pi PC board on which I'm trying to use Armbian from yestarday, "trying" because I have several different problems on which I investigated also on this forum, but I'm unable to solve at the moment (the reason because I'm writing here). Let's start from the beginning. I downloaded the armbian image from armbian website (https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-pc/), version I'm using now is Armbian 20.08.1 Buster with Linux 5.8.5-sunxi, but I have tried also other versions with exact same behaviour. The first problem is time synchronization root@orangepipc:~# timedatectl Local time: Thu 2020-09-03 16:34:17 CE…

Good evening, Is it possible to "re-use" the system on SATA ? And how would I do that. I use a HC4 with SD card, a SSD and a HDD I flashed the SD card with Armbian_20.11.1_Odroidhc4_buster_current_5.9.12.img.xz then used armbian-config to Boot from SD - system on SATA. (sdb2) also I installed PiHole, OMV ... Due to an power failure the HC4 was not booting anymore. With a newly flashed SD card its booting again, but of course its not using the system on sdb2 When using armbian-config it would erase by sdb2 before Could I somehow use the system which still should be on sdb2 instead of starting from beginn…

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…

Anything involved with screen blanking /MUST/ be removed or disabled, on the bpim5, and it exists in so many places it took me 2 days of poking around to stop the no recovery except reboot if un-used for more than 15 minutes regardless of what it happens to be running at the time. When a blanker kicks in, the monitor powers down and the bpim5 goes inactive with only the red pwr led on steady, and nothing wakes it up except the reset button. These things use so little power that it doesn't bither me a bot to leave them running. I have an rpi4b running a big metal lathe that works as intended, with uptimes in years, this should be the same. It w…

Hi I want to modify base armbian image using choot in order to install necessary software. I am also creating user during that process. My question is how can I skip or prefill the form that appears on first run? (user creation, time zone setting etc.) I was surfing the forum and found this answer. So, I came up with few options: 1) It looks like I can prefill my desired values for the form in "/usr/lib/armbian/armbian_firstlogin" file by editing it during chroot 2) I can remove user input parts in "/usr/lib/armbian/armbian_firstlogin", but preserve other important lines, since user will be created during chroot Is this valid options or there …

Hi everyone! I've just got a new odroid c4 and am trying to hook it up to a small i2c oled display. I've wired it up to the I2C A SCA and SCL pins with 3.3V and GND as needed, and enabled both I2C A and B in armbian-config. However, when I run i2cdetect -y 0 I get the device grid with a 30 in position 30 and nothing else, both with the display hooked up or not, nothing changes. Is there anything obvious I might have missed to get I2C running? Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi everyone! I'm new to the armbian world (but not to linux in general). I have two Orange PI R1+ LTS. After the last update, if I try to execute another update, using apt update && apt upgrade I have the following result: The following packages have been kept back: linux-dtb-current-rockchip64 linux-image-current-rockchip64 linux-u-boot-orangepi-r1plus-lts-current The systems are: Armbian 23.8.1 Bullseye with Linux 5.15.93-rockchip64 This happens after the last update, I've never had this issue before Thanks

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?

Basically I'm confused I want to download. I need someone's help on this. I looked up the download multiple times and I still have not found it.

Dear all, I come with a basic question: is armbian for H3 advanced enough and without roadblocks future proof, or is it still risky? Should it soon become mainline or for one or more years, it will be mainly for advanced users? I need to set-up a Openelec platform with software DSP features (ALSA, LADSPA, SOX...). I need easy to setup audio features (over USB, I2S, HDMI). I'm far from being a Linux expert. I don' t know how to compile an image, I discover SBC world.... I don't want to enter in too steep learning curve, and be able to focus on my project. Are H3 and Orange pi products ok for me, or would you advice to go directly to Rpi? I understand that there…

Hi I am experienced with Raspberry Pi and UBUNTU I bought now several Orange Pi to use in IOT project (can't find Raspberry Zero) So my questions are basic regarding the board I have downloaded Lubuntu image form here Put on SD card and tried to boot I get steady leds on network port (did connect any cable) I get steady Red led on board But nothing happen on HDMI display I tried other images but then no Red led and also nothing happen While searching I saw the Red led means image is recognized, but still...... Anyone?

There is a bug (not really a bug...) in the copy process with rsync. Please add the -x option to rsync to copy the root file system to a SATA/USB drive. I have cifs/nfs filesystem from my main (file) server mounted and the installation tries to copy alle the network-drives to the local SATA/USB drive. I was wondering, why the hell the armbian-config says 1020MB to copy (around 3 min.) and after 1 hour it still was running rsync! Yes, it tried to copy hundreds of GB to the local 60GB SATA/USB drive! And... the script removes all extra fstab entries, so all network filesystem mounts are gone! Please, correct this bug!

Hi all, Recently I tried to replace the wireless module on NanoPi Neo Air and met some very strange phenomenon. I just solder off the AP6212 module and then replace it with an AP6234 module. When I use the factory FriendlyCore system with brcmfmac43340-sdio.bin & brcmfmac43340-sdio.txt in /lib/firmware/brcm, everything works ok. But when I use armbian system, the wifi just not work. It always down after about 10 seconds when the bcm43340 firmware load. And I remember previously armbian system works fine for AP6212, but AP6212A not work and has the similar problem with AP6234. I just build the the armbian use the mainline 4.14.…

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…

As a newbie here I'd first like to send greetings to all members and to send a big THANK YOU to the support team. My problem is: After booting cubietruck and installing the updates the USB devices aren't recognized anymore. I'm using standard devices: wired Logitech mouse, wired Cherry keyboard. Updating went smoothly and finished normally. Immediately after it, at the console prompt the keyboard was already dead. I rebooted repeatedly via HW switch because I couldn't log in and keyboard LEDs were also off. My questions: What could I try to fix this? Is any important info missing? Here is an extraction fro…

Hi, I've installed Armbian 23.02 Jammy Gnome from https://www.armbian.com/orangepi-5/ on my new Orange Pi 5. Unfortunately, it looks ugly compared to Ubuntu on my x86_64 PC. The main problem is the irregular use of occasional single-colour icons - for example the trash-can in the dock. Is it possible to make Armbian 23.02 Jammy Gnome not use these single-colour icons, and use Ubuntu icons throughout?

Is there any support for Rock 3 C (RK3566)? I've tried booting from the Rock 3 A image, but no joy. It looks like the Rock 3A was RK3568 so I wonder if using another device tree overlay for RK3566 might otherwise work?

K-worker takes 10-20 % of one cpu core with later kernels. Does the 4.17 kernel still have this problem? Or is bionic a solution?

Hi all, I just downloaded the latest Armbian Bionic release and tried the new 5.0 kernel. So far everything looks good, but I can't get openvpn to work.

Hello everyone. I've been struggling with the temperature of my Orange Pi Lite 2. Based on what I saw in the forums, undervolting might fix this issue. I know how to undervolt the CPU by editing script.bin, however, it seems that script.bin is deprecated and now I need to change the device tree. I looked into DTS config in armbian-config, I couldn't find any voltage related parameters. I need to edit something like the dvfs_table in script.bin. Does anyone know how I can edit the device tree in order to modify voltage values? Especially voltage-frequency values. Any help is much appreciated.

Hello, Here is the end goal of what I am trying to achieve: I am using a rockpro64 and would like to be able to boot from SPI into a rootfs present on an encrypted hdd RAID. I tried building an image with root encryption enabled but apparently, has stated on the wiki, it is possible that no prompt will be shown during the boot process. This is exactly what is happening to me, the boot process halts without showing anyway of entering the passphrase. Is there a way to solve this issue ? Or to reach my goal with a different method ? Many thanks !!
