Any help is really appreciated!
is it possible to share the entire log right from the beginning? If it is too long, you can attach it as log file. Furthermore, you still have access to the system as soon as DNS resolution is failing?
The log cannot reach the beginning as it is too long for console.
it was trimmed at the userpurge section of the installation script. I’ll get you the log as far as I can.
For the access, i was using the serial debug port so no matter the network drop or not, I still can peek through the terminal.
By the way, I’ve noted that when the network fail, the commands like ifconfig, nmcli, dhclient were gone and I cannot bring up the network again. Is that the script had purge them away even on armbian?
is considered as deprecated because it has been replaced by ip command, which offers more advanced features and better control over network configuration. It’s not available on our images by default.
is a command used by NetworkManager tool, which is not available on our images as we use ifupdown to manage network connections.

In the original image is an armbian image, both ifconfig and nmcli were available.

As stated above, ifconfig depreciated on Linux. Not something specific to DietPi. We just follow this by using ip command suite instead. Therefore, it’s removed.
nmcli is command line tool of NetworkManager suite, which is conflicting with ifupdown (used on DietPi). Therefore, we remove NetworkManager package.
What you might need to do is to switch from NetworkManager to ifupdown beforehand.
We don’t use this tool on our images.
Yes, I understood that the ifconfig and nmcli were depreciated and I should switch to ip and ifupdown for connection, I was just addressing your question on the original source images. The dhclient was not there anyway.
The problem could be the network interfaces eth0 / wlan0 was gone during the execution of the script, which is quite frustrating to me that I cannot bring the interfaces back everytime after the purging part, and left the system broken…
After reviewing the script I cannot find the related parts that strip the network… Do you have any clue on it?
Thanks so much Joulinar! Really appreciate your help on this!
Probably this happens due to the removal of NetworkManager package. 
Because NetworkManager is using a complet different way to setup network interfaces. Therefore, you would need to switch from NetworkManager to ifupdown before starting the install script. Network interfaces would need to be configured within /etc/network/interfaces. Something like this:
# Location: /etc/network/interfaces
# Please modify network settings via: dietpi-config
# Or create your own drop-ins in: /etc/network/interfaces.d/
# Drop-in configs
source interfaces.d/*
# Ethernet
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.188.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.188.1
#dns-nameservers 9.9.9.9 149.112.112.112
# WiFi
#allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
address 192.168.0.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1
#dns-nameservers 192.168.0.11
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
root@DietPiR5S:~#
DNS server are defined within /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 9.9.9.9
nameserver 149.112.112.112
Maybe best would be to use STATIC ip address to avoid issues with DHCP during transition.
I am sure that the /etc/network/interfaces was properly configured.
And the most strange part is that all these funny things not happening to other boards using this script, so I wondering if there any things related to riscv chipset.
Anyways, I will try manually configure the board network with static network using ifupdown/ip to eliminate this and report the findings. 
well question is what network stack they use initially? I don’t believe the all using NetworkManager.
If the network is down, check if you are able to start the Ethernet interface using
ifup eth0
Thanks for your support and help, Joulinar!
It seems I can finally get the image created.
The trick is to get rid of the dhcp / wifi stuff.
I used a static IP config and usb-Ethernet adaptor!

hmm not the fastes device but working.

Thanks for the work done, I have updated the Mango Pi MQ Pro (Nezha D1) up to DietPi 9.0.2, starting from the Vasco’s image and works until you try to install FFMPEG, which I do not recommend for now, or the graphical environment, that need the same software.
From the command line it works and as you wrote, you need a screen, I also used a USB-C network card. It’s a long process, it would be better to create an image updated to DietPi 9.0.2.

what is the problem you have now?
Only direct and indirect ffmpeg installation, after updating DietPi to 9.0.2 if you write on the terminal apt install ffmpeg, the process will never finish.
It’s a problem I’ve seen before on other RISC-V SBCs, I have no idea how it was resolved.

Alright, as suggested, I’ve update the image to 9.0.2, with kernel 6.6 version of armbian, you are welcomed to test it. 
However, please note that HDMI is not working for this kernel… good enough for server usage
