If nothing else yet, I at least have a 3D printable case design to show for the CM3588 NAS... https://github.com/sgofferj/CM3588-NAS-case

@going Fantastic! Thank you!

@going I have tried all of FriendlyElec "Official images", most recent the debian. It's 6.1.25. @wasuu I don't think that dts even would even work for the CM3588 NAS. At least when I tried Armbian for the T6 on the CM3588 it booted but didn't run without quirks, e.g. no USB or HDMI out. I'm swamped this week and probably also next. But when I get to it, I'll try to find the dtb files from the "official" image and decompile them...

Thanks! I have heard about device trees and had a look at some DTS for the Banana Pi CM4 but I was lacking reference to understand the bigger picture. Looking at it, I'm probably not the one who is going to make Armbian work on this board but maybe I can do some prep work at least...

Thanks. I was though more looking for hints on how to get hardware working.

Morning all, so I got myself a FriendlyElec CM3588 NAS board for testing and in the end integrating in my homelab. I tried a few Armbian images - FriendlyElec suggests the NanoPi R6S image and I tried the NanoPC T6 image. Both boot but both have some issues, e.g. no USB connectivity and no HDMI out (T6). While not a being developer or SBC specialist, I am a Linux user since 1995 (server)/1996 (desktop) and I am used to some pain, tinkering and problem solving. Is there any kind of "getting started with a new board"- or similar document that I could use as a starting point to tinker with this board? Any hints, advice? Of course I could use the stock Debian/Ubuntu images from FriendlyElec but I grew to like Armbian a little after running it on a bunch of RPis and a Banana Pi... Happy New Year! Stefan
