I'm still confused... why is it possible then booting Multitool and LibreELEC directly from SD without erasing eMMC? And why would one try to boot and run it from SD if eMMC needs to be erased before? Nevertheless, I'm proceeding further. With legacy kernel everything is perfect. Moving upward I got stuck with 5.x kernel panic. Probably because of wifi driver. Will try your suggestion from . However, will stop posting here. It already looks like I'm hijacking the thread. Sorry. 🙂

Well... have been under influence of Amlogic and possibility to boot and run directly from SD. I still don't understand... in general should it be possible to boot and run Armbian directly from SD also on RK322x and it's just my particular case that it isn't? Because the statement "Despite the procedure above is simple and reliable, I always recommend to first test that your device boots Armbian images from SD Card." from the first post makes me think so. I finally decided to flash it immediately to internal storage and all my problems are gone.

Hi guys! I'm just trying to solve my problem with two different rk3229 boards not booting Armbian and came across your post. My situation is a little bit better :-), because I can boot Multitool and latest LibreELEC (although without wifi). However none of the Armbian images from the first post (even the oldest one with the same kernel as Multitool) could be booted. The symptoms are very identical... no signal on HDMI. Am I wrong to expect that if Multitool boots then also the same generation of Armbian should? Are such problems common? Is it possible to somehow combine Multitool's boot part with the root file system part of Armbian? Is there anything else besides burning an SD card, put it in the right place and connect the box to the power, that can be done to overcome the problem? I really don't have much experience hacking these small computers, so any suggestion how to troubleshoot the current behavior would be appreciated. Regards, Alen
