Hi,

 

Tried a new Armbian build for OPiPC today, legacy (3.4.113) and seen that only Debian 9 is available (not showing Debian 8), so build fails since Debian 9 cannot work with legacy.

 

So, is Armbian dropping legacy kernels (3.4.113) on Debian?

 

Need Debian 8 console/server with legacy, so what can I do ?

 

 

[ error ] ERROR in function source [ configuration.sh:90 ]
[ error ] Building Debian Stretch images with selected kernel is not supported 
[ o.k. ] Process terminated

Debian Jessie should be possible to build (with EXPERT="yes" switch) but it is not maintained anymore which means you are on your own if things break.

Debian Stretch requires more recent kernel than 3.4.y ... which will also be abandoned when multimedia features become mature in the modern kernel.

Ok @Igor

 

I understand that it might be time to get a bit modern, though things that I need are STILL not working with mainline/next/dev.. (and I do not know if they ..ever.. gonna work properly).

 

Thanks anyway.
