Hi! 

I'm new to armbian and just installed it on my KI PRO , AmLogic s905d  . 

I've compiled my own version using the last build . 

Use the image to generic tvb for s905 with debian 11. 

to configure the boot I use the KII PRO dtb :

 

/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf 

Quote

FDT /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905d-mecool-kii-pro.dtb

 

The box is running very well , however I have two issue with it. 

One of them is with eth0 doesn't recognize the cable connected .

 

I saw the answer here about @mrv issue and found no solution until now. 

I'm not sure where I can try any other module to test my ethernet card... 

 

Generated my armbianmonitor :

any tips?

@Cesar Inacio Martins  Have you tried to use armbian-config to configure your networking?  From the armbianmonitor output it appears you have valid eth0 and wlan0 interfaces.

Hi @Steeman, 

No , doesn't work. 

At first, I'm using the nmtui to configure, but even with armbian-config , still not working. 

 

If I tried to force an IP to eth0 and start it, the network froze and even my wifi access stop to work, then I need to log on console and put down the eth0. 

 

I notice this message "interrupt 34" for the eth0 , however didn't found anything useful to try identify if is related with my problem.
