Likewise 

Please, give me some info?

Is this a problem with all the armbian boards... upgrades?

Or do i just have to wait untill there is a solution?

Or is there something i can do now?

As far as I can tell from the issue mentioned above it is N2 only.

Either that or try digging into the issue by yourself. All scripts and sources are open: https://github.com/armbian/build

You can help Armbian either by donating time (https://www.armbian.com/newsflash/armbian-needs-your-help/) or money (https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_FAQ/#why-is-armbian-constantly-asking-for-money-free-software-should-be-free)

Sorry.. Is the donate option the only one 

 

Hope i can now upgrade ..
