I've tried to run Armbian on HK1RBOX V2 with the latest Jammy version (Nov 30,2022).

I just replaced the dtb with the one extracted from HK1RBOX V2 firmware.

Here is the result --

Jammy XFCE desktop with kernel 4.19 -- Work fine. Need to copy wifi driver from the original firmware to have wifi function.

Jammy XFCE desktop with kernel 5.19 -- Blocked. The boot message is as below. Looks like there are something wrong with the dtb compatibility

First read the FAQ post about Armbian and TV Boxes: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/16976-status-of-armbian-on-tv-boxes-please-read-first

 

Second, DTB files are kernel version specific since they are the mapping from the hardware to the kernel code.  So you can't take a dtb from an old kernel and expect it to work on a new one (especially when the old kernel is a heavily patched/android based kernel and the new one is mainline - as they will have very different implementations of basic support for these boards).

Try adding `keep_bootcon` to the kernel command line to see more details

@Simon-renegade I believe it's HK1 RBox R2, isn't it?
