The page for the Banana Pi image says:

"Known bugs or limitations
Latest 3.4.107 image have some stability issues. Build from sources or wait for update."

I have some questions about this:

- What kind of stability issues should I expect? I am seeing some network problems currently, however a lot of hardware in my network was replaced recently so I'm not sure if the banana pi is the source of these problems. The banana pi never locks up/show kernel oops/etc.

- How would building from source help? I would expect to get the same image with the same problems.

- When can I expect a new image to be available? Is it enough to download an old kernel from the archive? Or is the some way to download old images as well?

Thank you very much!

I can't give you exact answer yet since I am not sure what is causing this. The board just hangs for no apparent reason - it become unresponsive and you must do a hard reboot - in one hour or in two weeks. Most likely it's an issue with U-boot loader.

 

At this point I also don't know which is exactly last good build - few months ago for sure. I am having one such board with few months uptime.

 

I think that if you build from current sources it will be o.k. To be sure I am doing long term stress test on several boards.

 

You can find old builds here:

I'll rebuild all images and fix the problem when I get back from vacations in cca. 10 days.
