Folks, it has been a long time since I messed around with my ebin v5, but just wanted give it a second chance as I need to do something about my EOL Cubietruck (and my "broken" NT4 domain).

 

So I started a second attempt with "Armbian_22.08.1_Espressobin_bullseye_current_5.15.63" just a few days ago, but didn't got much further than updating uboot and to apt update / upgrade the system, before I got distracted again.

 

In the meantime I noticed the new "Armbian_22.11.1_Espressobin_bullseye_current_5.15.80" and I thought it would be a better idea starting from scratch with that version.

 

However, when I boot this up from SD the only interface shown ("ifconfig") is lo. (I 'see' the other port with "ifconfig -a", but I don't get an IP set (via DHCP) whatever physical port I use on the topaz switch, though the leds are happily blinking indicating a proper link.

Maybe it can help you

It does, thx!
