Hi all, thanks in advance for taking the time to read this topic. I'm working with the Banana Pi P2-zero board, on which I successfully installed the armbian buster image (on SD card) from here: https://www.armbian.com/bananapi-m2-zero/ Note that the image is for M2-zero, not P2 zero... which by the way has pretty much the same hardware, and things work fine on SD card. But then I needed to install the whole system on the on board eMMC. Such eMMC was not visible at first, so I edited the /boot/dtb/sun8i-h2-plus-bananapi-m2-zero.dts file to include mmc2 (mmc@1c11000) and compiled it as dtb. After this, I was able to see the…

Sorry if this in the wrong spot. I need a bit of help here, I once or twice updated the kernel on the Rock64 from older versions but I've always ran into an issue where it just wouldn't boot anymore and needed to be re-flashed. I run a always up server that has to have little to no downtime and I wish to avoid having to re-flash again. So I want to know if its safe or not to upgrade to 4.4.174 from 4.4.167 I can provide more info if needed. Thanks

Guys i have an orange pi zero 3 with 4GB RAM running a tiny proxmox 8.3.2 and everything was ok, i used the ./compile.sh command in /build to create a custom kernel with KVM enabled to get this to work a few months ago, now i have updated the system but the kernel installed has no support for KVM, obviously i want to use the standard procedure to recompile the kernel re-enabling the KVM but i dont know how, i know there is a way to pass commands to ./compile.sh but from what i have seen i dont know where or how to pass to the program the fact that i want KVM support enabled, i have seen things like this: apt -y install git git clone https://github.com/armbia…

Hi, I just upgraded from 4.3 to 4.4 using apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade. Unfortunately the device is headless and I don't have a monitor. I cannot login over SSH any more, I get asked for password, but after entering the connection timeouts. When I mount the SD-Card on my laptop to find out what's going on I found a ~350MB /var/log/kern.log, repeating only these lines: ...

Hi, I would like to use Orange Pi Zero for home automation server. I'm finding method to install os upgrades (and my own app upgrade too). I plan to have a lot of devices hundreds of kilometers from me, so I cannot break device over ssh or during update.

I have several orange pi pc plus using armbian and need to upgrade. I was able to upgrade to bionic but the kernel continued on version 3.4.113-sun8i. How do I upgrade the kernel? I need to upgrade because I will use the docker and it requires a kernel at least with version 3.10

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…

We have all seen the recent release announcement of Armbian 21.08 which now includes a beta release of Debian 11 (Bullseye). I have a RockPro64 (Rockchip 3399) that is currently running Debian 10 (Buster) that I would like to upgrade, so that it gets the latest packages from Debian and continues to receive security patches. I am tempted to just upgrade it by editing /etc/apt/sources.list and pulling the latest packages (the debian way), but I wondered if there is a safer way to perform the upgrade. Has anyone else upgraded a Debian based Armbain system that way. Are there any issues to watch out for? What customisations are there in Arm…

Hey, I'm currently using Debian Wheezy Armbian and think on Upgrading to Jessie. This should be no problem using the Upgrade script as in documentation. Now I've seen that also Ubuntu Trusty ist available. Is there an upgrade from Debian Wheezy to Ubuntu Trusty possible? Does it have any consequences? Or should I stay within Debian? And as additional question: I currently backup the following directories: /etc /root /home /var/backups /var/lib /var/local /var/opt /var/mail /srv /opt /usr/local Is this enough? Or how should I backup before such a upgrade procedure? Thank you for your infos. Ingo

Hi, I've already installed Armbian once before onto the SD card of my Rock PI S (Non-flash version). Before upgrading to Focal, I plugged it into my serial receiver in order to verify that I got the procedures correct so when I upgrade I'd get a console. I was glad I did that as I had forgotten I couldn't get screen(1) to work with my serial device as it can't send and receive data at the 1.5Mbs. I ended up using minicom(1). I downloaded the Focal Edge version of Armbian, verified the data with the ASC key, and wrote it to the Micro-SD card. I then booted it and the blue LED started blinking indicating an alive and working kernel. But I got no data over the…

What is the proces to upgrade armbian jessie -> stretch ? Thanks Enviado desde mi iPhone utilizando Tapatalk

Hi folks, I'm running armbian on a Banana Pi 1st generation, so far no probs. Indeed it runs very stable. The armbian is a debian jessie. Is it possible or recommended to update to stretch via the official debian upgrade path ? The armbian is fully updated Welcome to ARMBIAN 5.36 user-built Debian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie) 4.13.16-sunxi I'm running an nginx php stack on the BaPi. But what about stretch ? Can I do a dist-upgrade ? Sorry if this has already been discussed. Thanks in advance for replies :-)

armbian-config has a way to update the kernel within a major version but can one upgrade from 5.15 to 6.1 (current/edge). I assume if not then I have to build my own image? What I am after is jammy or bullseye with 6.1 kernel to support some hardware not supported in 5.15. I know the rolling releases (Lunar/Sid) have this kernel but I need a LTS release with 6.1.

after installing wireguard (kernel upgrade + headers) the pi would no longer boot and fail with crc error. Looking at the boot partition the uinitrd file was linked to the old version. Changed the uinitrd link to the newest one and it booted again.

Hi Guys, My Orange Pi Zero LTS H5 had a short circuit and no longer power up. worst that it seems that i cannot find any replacement for it as market is full of H2 & H3 variants but non is H5.

Hello, I have an Odroid N2+ on Armbian 23.02 Bullseye. I wish to upgrade to Bookworm. Initially I expected to do the upgrade after the update to Armbian 23.05 via apt but I tend to think we will have directly 23.08 without 23.05 I won't ask for the date when we will have 23.05 but has someone upgraded to Bookworm with Armbian 23.05? I know this kind of upgrade is not officially supported but as I made it from Buster to Bullseye I have the same project for Bookworm. But I am not sure Bookworm and Armbian 23.05 are really compatible.

Hello, I am running a Cubietruck with Armbian 21.08 Buster. I wonder if this can be upgraded to 22.02. The usual apt update apt upgrade apt dist-upgrade does not install any new packages. However I see e.g. the deb files for the kernel are existing in http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/armbian-apt/pool/main/l/linux-5.15.25-sunxi/ and also http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/armbian-apt/dists/buster/main/binary-armhf/Packages contains the new packages. The kernel is NOT set to freeze in armbian-config. Also that tool does not offer the new 20.02 packages. I seem to overlook something here. What prevents the installation (my apt skill are obviously limited...). …

I've set up 23.02 Debian Bullseye CLI on my Orange Pi 5. I believe I read 23.05 is coming out soon. Would I just do an apt update and then apt upgrade to make the change? I'm at the point where I could just re-install and start with 23.05 but what would I do in the future for new updates? Thanks.

Hi, I have installed Ubuntu Jammy on my Orange pi 5 plus board a while ago, I was wondering if I could upgrade to the new Noble release of armbian for OPI5 plus without having to reinstall the whole image and without breaking the system, I upgraded the kernel to the latest version with no issues, I just wanted to know the correct and safest way of upgrading the Noble release of Armbian. Thank you in advance.

Hi. This video (Raspberry Pi 4 RAM Upgrade - Tutorial) is about upgrading Pi RAM from 1GB to 8GB, and it is inspired me to investigate possibility to do this for other boards. If anyone has any ideas and knowledge, please share it with us. I personally interested in NanoPi NEO4 with RK3399 CPU and with 1GB RAM Schematic for looking at RAM and board wiring. RAM consist of 2 512Mb chips on one channel (second channel on this board is not used) RAM Chips: K4B4G1646E-BCMA 4Gbit(4096bit/8=512Mb) DDR3-1866 96Ball FBGA. CPU supports DDR3, DDR3L, LPDDR3, LPDDR4. There are at least 1GB DDR3 chips out there. (not sure about 2GB, and probably no 4GB) …

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.

Hi there, I don't know yet much about the USB gadget framework, but was wondering it I could use it to make an Orange Pi Zero or One seen as a video sink by the host computer. I know the framework should allow the board to be seen as an audio source, a video source, a Midi device and other things, but could it be seen as a video consumer of some sort ? My goal would be to grab the host's webcam content, encode and stream it on the SBC so that the host's CPU still has resource for other tasks. Does it make sense ? Thanks.

There are already several boards with the small SPI flash installed. This is perfect for the u-boot storage. Than the board starts from this SPI flash and looks for the /boot folder on SD card and USB storage. I've moved the system from the SD to USB HDD included the /boot folder and removed the SD card. When I power-on the board, the HDD starts and everything works fine. But when rebooted, the HDD is suspended at the shutdown end and the u-boot doesn't wait until it starts again and the booting fails as "No USB storage found". Is there any way how to disable the HDD suspend in the system? I was looking around how to disable this function somehow in the HDD itself ( Maxto…

Hi, It is very hard to start OS (community version, downloaded from here). The system doesn't start at all, if the keyboard is already attached. I've discovered some magic moment during the startup process, when I can attach keyboard and system goes further. In most of moments the boot process stops, as soon as I'm attaching the keyboard. Lines are scrolled too fast to let me note what moment is "successful". Also I've noticed that the chip is very hot, when the keyboard is attached. It's much colder when keyboard is detached. Another small issue is that functional keys don't work. Though Ctrl/Alt and other similar keys do. …

On windows systems the activity light of the adapter lights up, but in linux no (I tested on armbian 5.60 and ubuntu 18.04). I've successfully installed the linux driver from realtek's website, but the light still does not light up. Module r8152 installed and used for the device.

Can't seem to get the USB redirector to work. I suspect I have to enable but am unsure of how to do that. I've tried a variety of methods to start the daemon to no effect (I am however new to Linux and systems). All I can bring up is this message. I'm using Ubuntu Trusty. ******************** ERROR *********************** Cannot connect to USB Redirector daemon. Please make sure usbsrvd is loaded. If the module is not loaded, please contact our support team. Error log can be found at /var/log/usbsrvd.log **************** **************** **************** Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

My orange pi one is not getting usb 2.0 speeds. The log shows 2.0 in dmesg but when I tested usb data transfer using DD and a flash drive i only got 6MB. Anything I can do to get faster speeds?

Happy New Year to Everyone, Am I right to assume there is no power management at all when using a SSD on a usb to sata adapter in Linux? I have this crazy plan to salvage a broken laptop and replace the dead motherboard with a sbc and other components to make the laptop useful again and one with better battery life, than 3 hours while building websites it used to give me. When the usb to sata adapter is plugged in alone, it consumes 50ma more which is ok. Add my 120gb ssd and adds another 150ma which I think is normal for the drive when idle but no sata link power management. I tried using powertop, --calibrate then --auto-t…

If I want to use such device on prange pi one, do I need to install anything I use it a lot with Raspberry but when trying with Orange Pi I do not get prompt (login screen) https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTrkoGB_leq-7hEJRtlZjAe345K1-v96BhenuE9EmdglEs3VUDY

Hello, I have a usb wifi device which works well on nano pi neo 3.4.113-sun8i. I update to the latest ditribution 5.15.48-sunxi jammy, then I rebuild kernel drivers but now it only work on a cold boot and when I hot plug the adapter. On a warm boot the adapter with lsusb is ok but nmcli can't find the device. I have the same problem with another usb wifi adapter (lsmod is ok, but stil not working with "rmmod 8821cu" and then "modprobe 8821cu")

Problem: Wifi Dongle D-Link DWA-131 (RTL8192EU) doesn't work in automated 'armbian-config' program to configure it as an AP. Tried: On a fresh install of Buster Current on SD card, I booted up and did 'armbian-config > Network > Hotspot'. At the end of the setup it said there is no compatible 'hostapd' driver. I also tried an image of FriendlyWRT on this SBC. I could get the Wifi Dongle to be recognized, but radio0 said "device not set", and wifi was 'not associated'. Goal: Get DWA-131 to function as a hotspot on my FriendlyElec NanoPi R2S using armbian (or FriendlyWRT). I want to use this device as a hotspot (or rou…

Different trusted USB wifi modules are available at https://www.armbian.com/nanopi-neo/ , but my concern is trying to choose between different wireless modes such as 802.11 b or 802.11 n for example and type of wireless connection as access point or ad-hoc. through iw command you might be able to switch between modes and types of wireless connection but it is also related to the usb WIFI module whether it allows such an operation or not ! already purchased a usb wifi module (but not of the trusted ones) and it did not allow me to choose between modes but was able to choose ad-hoc. so does any of these https://www.armbian.com/nanopi-neo/ usb WIFI modules …

Hello, Trying to compile the Qualcomm Gobi serial USB drivers for a Simcom wireless chip on a NanoPi Neo2 (sunxi64). I've loaded the kernel headers via armbian-config and typically this specific header file would be in drivers/usb/serial. We're using the pre-built image. Is there an easy way to get this into our kernel or do we have to embark on a full compile? Any help very much appreciated Rob

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…

Hi, I normally use Proxmox on Intel Nucs (also Buster based) and also had here usbip with some USB sticks on a USB hub. Now I decided to split that up a bit and so I got some ZeroPi devices and wanted to use them as USBIP hosts kind of. So I installed the buster image and also added usbip_host module to /etc/modules. The devices are seen by the Linux on the ZeroPi in general and also /usr/sbin/usbip list -l lists them successfully. Here the dmesg output too: [ 350.174305] usb 4-1: new high-speed USB device number 6 using ehci-platform [ 350.331127] usb 4-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1a40, idProduct=0101, bcdDevice= 1.11 [ 35…

Hi there, Xunlong seller says max size of uSD is 32GB. But I have seen thread posts that mention 128GB. So my question is: what is the max uSD card size with RK3399?

I like to attach an additional LED to my Core on any GPIO that is also going to switch on as soon as the Core boots (similar to the red one). This way I can give the user a feedback that the core is now booting. Is there a way to achieve this?

Hello I use a odroid c2 und create a full img backup. Can i use this in a newer odroid like too? I have some programms etc on it and don't want to reinstall it.

I used https://github.com/piter75/armbian-build for building images via vm-kvm for my Orange servers. Now I want compile application hostapd with forcing 40MHz, but I don't want build/compile it on orange pi servers. Is possible use environment armbian-build for building mentioned application? Or some docker container with armbian in which I can mentioned application to compile?

Hi, I have a broken Odroid C2 from a customer. I've never used Odroid so I was wondering if I bought a Odroid C4 and insert the card will it run ok ? Don't know any info about what's in the sd card. The customer bought from a supplier he no long intends to work with ever again. Can anyone help me in any way ?

Hello, is it possible to use GPIO Pins with this OS? I would like to use this code: http://mujweb.cz/tlc/RasPi-SMT/ Board: OrangePI PC I decided to use this OS as the original images doesnt seem to support an USB WLAN adapter with atheros chipset I am using. This OS seems to work well with it.

Hy guys i want to use a push button on my orange pi. if i press the button, the orange pi should run a script. i only use esp8266 with arduino tu create some interactive tools. does anybody know, how it works on the orange pi and which cheapy button you would prefer? i only want to run sh script, when the button will be press. thank you a lot!

I made a custom A20 board of which sch is very close to lime2 for a project (retrostone2) and I can't use USB0 as a classic USB port. The three USB (0 1 2) are all connected to regular USB type A connectors. No OTG used. However I can't get the USB0 to work. USB1 and USB2 works without issue. But USB0 will not recognize keyboard/any peripheral. I think it's probably because of OTG detect pins. I looked at the DTS, but I am having trouble understanding how OTG is emplemented there, how to unactivate it and just activate a classic USB port. Any ideas?

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 …

Hello everybody, is it possible in u-boot (boot.ini) to make a user input and let the user choose from A or B and according to the choice load a particular uInitrd? In case a non-valid answer is given a default answer should be used. Best of all would be if I could implement a time-out. When user does not make input answer B should be selected. I would know how to do this in bash but is that also possible in boot.ini somehow?

If you want to get ahead of the curve a little I've been testing libgpiod master with User Space IO. This version includes Python bindings, so I'm no longer generating CFFI bindings for this library. I've converted all the example code to use the new bindings. User Space IO is Python 3 and Java 8 bindings for Linux user space GPIO, SPI, I2C, PWM and Serial interfaces. User Space IO is a consistent API for C, Python 3 and most JVM languages. No more hacked up RPi.GPIO and WiringPi for each SBC model.

Hello! Made a kernel update via APT yesterday and now the MOTD is displaying the status warning "No end-user support: built from trunk". The update also broke the scripts used by armbian-config (works after a reinstall though). Is this normal behaviour? I've never seen this MOTD status before. Are unsupported/unstable updates pushed through the stable branch (my sources are configured as "stable main contrib")? Edit: The updated packages were: linux-buster-root-current-odroidxu4:armhf (20.08.1, 20.08.3), linux-image-current-odroidxu4:armhf (20.08.1, 20.08.3), linux-dtb-current-odroidxu4:armhf (20.08.1, 20.08.3), linux-u-boot-odroidxu4-current:…

HI I cannot find anywhere option to run compile.sh without GUI/NCurses. I'd like to just run basic command to build image (have configuration done) Can you point me to place where i can look ?

I've got an Olimex A20-LIME2 and their 3.4" LCD with touchscreen. While they do work together using their built A20-OLinuXino-buster image, I would much rather use Armbian on this board. I've been attempting to use their lime2-lcd-olinuxino-4.3ts overlay (present commit: af1d92c). What I'm doing is, after cloning that repo to the Lime2, compile all supplied overlays with (because that's quick & easy): make all … then install the same overlay (by name) that works in OLinuXino with: sudo armbian-add-overlay sun7i-a20/A20-OLinuXino-Lime2/lime2-lcd-olinuxino-4.3ts.dts But on reboot, it fails with: Found mainline kernel configuration 47918 b…

Hi forum members, on my interactive bash I can use the armbian variables like BOARD , BOARD_NAME or BOARDFAMILY, but these variables ard not seen when I try to use them in a bash script. Any hints ?

Hi Folks, In my continuing adventures in Armbian (coming from RHEL/Fedora professionally), I've discovered that Jessie uses very old packages for various things I'd like to use to get closer to a Fedora-like experience. For example, I'd really like to use https://packages.debian.org/testing/net/firewalld. Any advice you could give on how to use some testing packages on Armbian? I thought ensuring 'backports' was listed in my /etc/apt/sources.list file would do it but alas no dice. I've tried the following command based upon this Debian wiki page: https://wiki.debian.org/Backports#Installing_backports_on_the_command_line # aptitude -t jessie-backports insta…

Hi i would like to use the eDP Display on my nanopit4. How can i compile the Kernel to support the edp?

Hello. I feel like this is a really basic stupid question, but for the life of me I can't find an answer. Every thread that I read about getting a display XYZ to work in Armbian references using fbtft. But apparently fbtft is now deprecated and cannot be used anymore. So.. what do I do now? I'm mainly looking to get ILI9341 -based 3.2" TFT and MPI3508 3.5" TFT to work with Armbian. Mainly testing with an Orange Pi Lite2 and Orange Pi 3 currently. I've read this: downloaded, compiled and installed the .dts. Also modified/added line to boot.cmd to use lcd as display according to https://docs.armbian.com/Hardware_Allwinner/ tha…

Hi everybody, I’m trying to find how to view image by selecting it by reference (image name or its sequence in folder). Ex: assume that I have 3 images 1.jpg, 2.jpg and 3.jpg in folder /home/user/ABC then when run feh and if I tape 1 in keyboard the 1.jpg will be showed and if I tape 3 then will be 3.jpg and so on until I hit ESC key. Or by sequence order: doesn’t matter the name or number of images, if I tape 1 key the first image on the folder will be shown and key 3 for 3th image..... I have I tried feh with --action but no success. ($ feh –y –F --action 1 1.jpg --action2 2.jpg ) but not what I need. Is there a way to send the key value t…

Having downloaded the Armbian OS for my Cubox-i, I am using Gparted on MXLinux to prepare my 32Gb microUSB card for installing the extracted image. My initial problem is that I have to select the partition table type to install, from a list with msdos being the default. Is msdos the correct type or should I use one of the others offered (sun, gpt, bsd, dvh, aix, loop, pc98, amiga, atari, mac) Once that is done, what filesystem should I use to create the new partition as there are so many choices available. I appreciate any help you can provide to get me going. Thanks Ashdown

I installed Armbian 23.02.2 aarch64 running kernel 6.1.11-meson64 on Le Potato and the system is running great with xfce4 as the desktop. Once I shutdown or restart, upon restart to the desktop the monitor is clear from the left side to the middle of the screen but the last 1/3 of the screen on the right is slightly fuzzy like the its out of focus. There was no problem of this upon install and first boot of xfce4. I have tried running Armbian Buster image and it works just fine everytime with no issue the entire screen is crisp and clear. For some reason when I installed bullseye it only works once after initial install and setup and then on is fuzzy on the right 1/3 …

Hello, I decided to monitor some temperature stuff at home and used few ds18b20 w1 sensors and they work, but due to some cable limitation and number of the sensors at same point they failed. I decided to test with 10 meters CAT5 FTP cable, changed pull up resistor to 4KO and 3 ds18b20 work at 10m cable on 3.3V, If I add one more they all fail. I switched volatage to 5V and all good, but I wondering is it possible to initialize w1 bus on another GPIO? After I google that and so some reading, people achieve that on raspberry but they patched the kernel somehow. Any idea how can that be done on armbian?

I have a small C program where a GPIO pin on Orange Pi is polled using digitalRead. It works fine and detects HIGH and LOW as expected. When I put a dupont wire with nothing connected at the other end (ie. just extend the GPIO pin) digitalRead starts registering intermittent HIGHs and LOWs wildly. What the heck am I seeing? I have a Raspberry 3 nearby and it does not show this phenomenom. Using digitalWrite on the pin works as expected.

I'm building a multi-zone music streaming setup built around an SBCs running Snapcast/MPD and this MA12070P board (AliExpress link). From the pinout diagrams it looks like the board is the same as the Merus Audio Amp Hat just with a built in USB-C PD supply (why I want to use this board). If it's a clone then it looks like support is in Raspberry Pi OS, but I want to use the Radxa Zero 3W since I can get it at a similar price point with better specs. This is my first embedded project since ~2019 so a bit out of my depth when it comes to device tree overlays. How would I write a DTO to enable audio output to this device?

I have complied R40 board ( not bpi v40) with Armbian kernel and the u-boot hangs and showing BOOT. I was using u-boot 2014-07 and boot0_sdcard.fex and boot_package.fex for bootloader.

Hi! After installing mesa-va-drivers and vainfo, I'm only getting an error message that `rockchip_drv_video.so` is missing. So, evidently there's a VA driver registered and available (somewhere), but the file is missing? Where do I find it, how do I install it? Thank you

I am using Armbian.imager_2.0.4_amd64,AppImage on a Fedora sytem to burn two new Lenovo 256 Gbyte sd with Rpi4b_resolute_current_6.18.42_gnome_desktop_img.xz, and both report a verify failure at 113246208. I am suspicious because two sd's are failing at the same offset. I think that is unlikely, if they both have a manufacturing defect. I think it is more likely a systematic error in the software. tayolepuqi.txt

Version `25.8.2` of kernel, dtb and/or header package on Armbian Ubuntu Noble break `zfs-dkms` (I'm pretty sure kernel module `zfs` was not built with success) I had to run: ```sh sudo apt install linux-image-current-meson64=25.8.1 linux-headers-current-meson64=25.8.1 linux-dtb-current-meson64=25.8.1 && sudo dpkg-reconfigure zfs-dkms ``` I couldn't look in to the problem, because I was busy doing something else when I was just upgrading every package on the system. I had to prioritize quickly fixing it before another user arrives so I just reverted the suspicious packages (the three I mentioned in the title) I can't lo…

Hello I'm just wondering that there are two release files in /etc and why they have different VERSION values. In armbian-image-release file, VERSION is 20.08.1 But it is 21.08.8 in armbian-relase file. armbian-config and welcome massages also show version as 21.08.8 So I think 21.08.8 is correct one, but then why armbian-image-release has incorrect version value? Is it a bug? Or am I missing something? Please help me. Thank you.
