Hello,

 

I've built a new and clean Image for "Armbian_5.34_Bananapipro_Debian_stretch_default_3.4.113_desktop".

 

The network-manager is not running and can not be started.
 

root@bananapipro:~# /etc/init.d/network-manager start
[....] Starting network-manager (via systemctl): network-manager.serviceJob for NetworkManager.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status NetworkManager.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
 failed!

Kernel 3.4.y is not good enough for Debian Stretch. Most likely this is the core of the problem.

... and will never be supported. It wasn't supposed to be buildable at all but the condition was implemented in wrong place.

Thanks a lot. Than I will try to build my environment based on Debian Stretch and Mainline-Kernel.
