For once as stated don't use Balena. use Armbian imager or usbimager For the other write the image anyway as it is, try to boot and grab serial logs if there is an actual issue or not.

No logs - no issue.

Hm I briefly remember there was an optional overlay to raise voltage to 1.3 volts..but I don't know why it should be now standard. Did not do any investigation though

npu is there in both vendor bsp kernel 6.1.y. There is no node exposed afaik. Everthing beyond like libraries to use npu is userspace and out of scope of Armbian. edge 6.18.y also has reverse-engineered npu support with a driver called Rocket.

Are you sure you don't mean BSP which stands for Board Support Package??

Have you tried to reach out to the manufactur? https://www.mouser.at/datasheet/3/2627/1/MYD-LT527-SX.pdf Website: en.myir.cn Email: sales@myir.cn Tel: +86-755-22984836

Without schematics, deep knowledgde and a lot of time to waste, this task is probably close to impossible. Only chance I see here is for once assuming the vendor is lazy and the implementation is as close to reference design as it can get. And for the other that there is some android device tree which can be reverse-engineered.

That would be a good start indeed.

Didn't warn ffmpeg from a guts feel years ago that they will issue a takedown if no action is taken? So I'm not surprised. Kind of.

I don't have this hardware. However the last merged PR messing with code for this board/SoC was tested by Igor and he stated it boots just fine.

Interesting question. The dxf says the part in question is labeled ED1 besides CP18 and CP14. I found both CP18 and 14 in the schematics but ED1 not. Either mislabeled or I didn't catch it. https://x.na4.eu/KOTu3/quzevoji80.jpg OrangePi-Schematic of ZERO3.pdf

Balenaetcher is known to cause trouble. Use USBimager or Armbian imager https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/

Easiest approach is the customize-image.sh script in userpatches/. https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_User-Configurations/#user-provided-image-customization-script

use system resolver instead of default:https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/60e869c42c03af0428d9983750eb766a7a846d43/config/templates/config-example.conf.template#L25

I am confused as well by getting a clue what you are trying to do Kernel and userspace are independent in Armbian. You can use any userspace (Ubuntu Jammy, Noble, Resolute, Debian Bookworm, Trixie, Forky, Sid) with any kernel package. Latter is always the same. Rockchip RK3588 is a bit special in terms of kernel versions. Let me give you brief overview. 6.1.y is a based on Rockchip BSP kernel which is close to feature-complete but a bit outdated. 6.12.y which is currently our current branch and was the latest mainline LTS kernel until a few days ago. However at the time this was released a bare minimum of drivers were merged into this version 6.18.y (or soon 6.19-rcX) is edge and has a lot more hw features merged into but still isn't feature-complete. Collabora is working on that like crazy. Userspace upgrades are neither tested nor supported by Armbian. Not because we don't want but because we don't have resources to test all kinds of scenarios for dist-upgrades.

moved. Has nothing to do with opi4a. Remove heatsink to get an idea which SoC hides beneath

This is not an Armbian image. It looks like an image provided by Xunlong. We do not mirror 3rd party images. For older Armbian images try https://fi.mirror.armbian.de/oldarchive/

3b is not a supported board, therefore mirror does not have up-to-date images. Check 2nd link I provided

There seems to an issue with some boards not showing download links. Until fixed feel free to dig through both mirror and community images: https://fi.mirror.armbian.de/archive/ https://github.com/armbian/community/releases
