3. Expansion of Community Build Framework: Our community interaction has led to the integration of several new boards, including SakuraPi and H96 TV box, into our build framework. Additionally, we’ve upgraded u-boot on 32-bit Rockchip devices and successfully ported Khadas Edge 2 to kernel 6.1. Moreover, FriendlyElec NAS now runs on mainline-based kernels, enriching our ecosystem with more versatile options.

4. Ongoing Upgrades and Future Ventures: In the pipeline, we have several exciting upgrades underway. We’re working on upgrading the Odroid XU kernel to version 6.6 and adding support for Orangepi 5 PRO. Furthermore, we’re introducing mainline kernel support for Orangepi Zero 2W, and our team is eagerly diving into the development of the new Radxa Rock 5 ITX board and Rock 5C.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to elevate the Armbian experience!

Best regards,

The Armbian Team
