January 8Jan 8 Try a different microSD card, and always start with a serial-USB connection to your laptop. After first boot, run htop and if you see the CPU high usage, wait until it is done. Then reboot the orange pi.

I'm sorry, but I don't really understand what a microSD card has to do with the problem above to perform system updates?
January 9Jan 9 I confirm that the update has not been working for several days. Your repositories are broken, sizes in InRelease do not match sizes in subbranches. The file has an unexpected size (10351 != 8303). Perhaps the mirror is synchronizing? [IP: 65.21.120.247 80] Mirror synchronization has been going on for about a week now!?

January 9Jan 9 2 hours ago, tutralex said: Mirror synchronization has been going on for about a week now!? I spent practically whole holidays to rework repository management and there are still some problems, even it was tested on and on before going into production. But beta repository, which you are having troubles with, was never tested. Only stable. Motive: https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/9150 Affected: https://github.com/armbian/armbian.github.io/blob/main/.github/workflows/infrastructure-repository-update.yml https://github.com/armbian/armbian.github.io/blob/main/.github/workflows/infrastructure-download-external.yml https://github.com/armbian/armbian.github.io/blob/main/scripts/sync-repository.sh https://github.com/armbian/armbian.github.io/blob/main/scripts/copy-kernel-packages.sh https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/tools/repository/extract-repo.sh https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/tools/repository/repo.sh ... so you might get an idea on the problem complexity

January 9Jan 9 Author Igor, I understand the issue is complex, as you say, but for now I can only report that this didn't work. However, if I manage to resolve it, please let me know what we should do next, as I don't want to lose the work I've done on the image I downloaded. I also understand that these are BETA test images.

Sure, no worries. 44 minutes ago, TRay said: please let me know what we should do next You will notice once its fixed. as this is not something you should adjust on the APT client side. 48 minutes ago, TRay said: I don't want to lose the work You didn't and won't loose anything except current updating mechanism is broken.
January 9Jan 9 Цитата I spent practically whole holidays to rework repository management... I have no complaints about the developers, it’s enough for me to just know that this is not a client-side problem and that someone is working on a solution.
January 10Jan 10 I'm experiencing the same issue when trying to build image for Raspberry Pi 4B with: BOARD=rpi4b BRANCH=current RELEASE=noble Workaround (worked for me): Forcing the use of Werner's mirror: LOCAL_MIRROR="fi.mirror.armbian.de/apt" Posting this in case it helps others facing the same problem.

January 10Jan 10 31 minutes ago, jmrsnt said: Forcing the use of Werner's mirror: If that worked for you, then you're lucky. For me it did not (other board tested). I guess the files on there have an older state which is still good. Again, as mentioned, repo is being worked on and we're aware of the issues and trying our best to resolve this asap.
