January 15, 20251 yr Hello, Yesterday I was doing an upgrade on my NanoPi T6, and then I got a kernel panic and no boot. I am currently running kernel 6.1.84 To recover my information through a new mmc card I put armbian with kernel 6.12. And I logged in by doing a chroot. There used to be an option to install a newer kernel via armbian-config, but I can't find that option now. Is there any way how i can put on my current server a newer kernel or through cli which packages should i install. Greetings, A.H.
January 15, 20251 yr Solution You could run: sudo apt list | grep linux-image Besides the vanilla Debian/Ubuntu ones, there are Armbian ones: vendor, current, edge In your case your installed U-Boot might be incompatible with kernel 6.1.84, I had that for my Rock3A, I installed mainline U-Boot. If you want all kernels, use http://beta.armbian.com in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/armbian.list Or build yourself from source. The Armbian build runs fine on my NanoPi-R6C Armbian Bookworm Edited January 15, 20251 yr by eselarm
January 15, 20251 yr Author @eselarm Thanks for the idea. I'll test tonight. Kernel 6.12 works apparently very well and that's why I want to put it in. ZFS also works well. Apart from that, it made a positive impression on me that when booting the OS, the fan doesn't stop as it did with 6.1 and older versions and I had to manually adjust the dtb file.
