Hi! I am around... Thank you for all the work you have been doing on the M1S. Unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity to test recently, but I expect to. As for the low performance, I really had the feeling that the M1S is slow on graphics, but decent (for its class) on regular CPU work. I had tested with linuxfactory's bookwork image and that was the feeling I got from then. I don't think the long wait time for armbian-config to open is normal. My first bet would be something related to network access, either there is not a working internet access or some configuration is wrong. My second bet, some sort of reading error on the microSD card. The M1S isn't that sloooow. I would suggest you check dmesg for a clue after running armbian-config. Best regards, Sérgio

Hi, I have not much time either, but I would like to see an Armbian release for the M1S. I have one M1S unit with me I could use for testing, but I will have to share it with other tasks. Maybe I could help accelerate the process somehow, I just don't know where to start. I have been using Linux on embedded systems for some years, but never went very deep. I have tried the linuxfactory bookworm image and it works, even with the Vu8S 8" display which connects to the MIPI connector. It must be installed to the onboard eMMC. Does someone want to guide me on this? Or maybe supply ready to flash images I could test?
