My first post here to share a problem, but first I want to thanks all dev team for this wonderfull distro that I use on my odroid HC1 since a while now.
I found my old odroid C1 and wanted to install Dietpi on it. But there's a problem with images. After flashing with Balena there's a ext4 partition on it (system) and that's it, no boot partition . I try STrech and Buster, same result (see attach screenshot).
So If you can, it will be great to recompile the odroid C1 image with the boot partition.
Thanks dev for all their work!
The Odroid C1 image is based on Armbian, hence it is a single partition image. /boot is located as well on the ext4 partition. I know the downside is that it cannot easily be pre-configured on a Windows machine .
Thanks for your reply. I try ARMbian image too and try to change config on an ubuntu desktop, but nothing hapen.
In fact when I power up the odroid C1 the "Alive" led is still ON and the devicee won't appear on my network, with other distro (Official minimal ubuntu) this led is blinking and the device is reachable via ssh. I'm on it now and it's working.
-Dietpi Jessie, fresh flash, ethernet wired, power on. on 4gb sd card and 32gb (uhs)
Led status, blink (like heart pulse)
dhcp = up
ssh ok but can't pass throught dietpi first run (some sources lacks I think)
-Dietpi Stretch, fresh flash, ethernet wired, power on. on 4gb sd card and 32gb (uhs)
Led status, always on
dhcp = nothing
-Dietpi Buster, fresh flash, ethernet wired, power on. on 4gb sd card and 32gb (uhs)
Led status, always on
dhcp = nothing
-Armbian fresh install, ethernet wired, power on. on 4gb sd card and 32gb (uhs)
Led status, always on
dhcp = nothing
I try to chang only the Uhs line in config after that and nothing change
-Ubuntu minimal 18.04 fresh flash, ethernet wired, power on. on 4gb sd card and 32gb (uhs)
led status : blink (like heart pulse)
dhcp = up
ssh ok
There's no emergency, I was just trying dietpi to install pihole on it but I don't know if it's only me or all C1 owners.

I have a C1 but the dietpi was flashed long time ago and I do not recall any issues like this.
Can you show us the logs of what fails during first run?

well Jessie is not really supported anymore. And with DietPi 6.29 all scripts are moved from /DietPi directoty to /boot. What you could try to is to create a sym link
Thanks,
after some tries, jessie does not see ext4 partition. but I will not do other test, as you say Jessie is a little bit obsolete, I was trying to be sure that was not a problem with my board or sd cards.
