Hi all,

sorry if my question is stupid but I would like to use ARMBian on this Keith & Koep board.

I know that there are different problems with serial configuration and that may prevent u-boot to start.

I would like to know if I can regenerate easily an ISO adaptating the hardware with custom device tree ....

Which repositories should I clone ?

Thanks for your support

Kind regards

Jerome

Hi Jerome,

Welcome to armbian - looks like you know how to spend your time over christmas

 

You didn't mention it, have you already looked in here: https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/

Cheers

Since we don't support this board, I can give you only some generic tips. Inspect those examples to see what you might need to do:

https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/921
https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/1158

https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/1151

 

For start you need to be able to build image for your hardware manually, then you start to brought it in the system. You can use u-boot in binary form or made it from sources in the build process. Then add your device tree with a patch. You can skip all kernels and port support only for a kernel 4.19.y

Thanks guys for being so supportive. Your links are very helpful.We 'll try to finish our current work with a device tree integrating an external RTC ...

We use a bunch of scripts & work made by the board provider but they use a very old kernel (4.1) and this kernel does not evolve anymore. That's why we'd like to port your excellent work to have a fresh kernel and something very close from

Debian....

Merry christmas to all hardware hackers...

Best regards
