Odroid C4 Topic is solved

[Joulinar]

which Armbian Image do you used?

[AndyGR42]

Buster server kernel 5.6 stable (Armbian_20.05.2_Odroidc4_buster_current_5.6.15) 2020-06-03

@MichaIng
what do you think. Would it make sense to use the Armbian image instead of Meveric?

[AndyGR42]

Hmm. I think, as long as the armbian image has the issues with the soft boot it's not the best idea. Maybe the 4.9 kernel works better but it's lagacy u-boot etc.

I guess we would need to wait for a stable base image.

New image up, hopefully this boots : https://dietpi.com/downloads/images/tes ... -Buster.7z

I don't believe it's booting. Tried a couple SD cards.

Updated image with new kernel package and identified two reasons why the old did not boot:
1. The installed `u-boot` package is only a placeholder for what will be released for C4 explicitly at a later date and must not be flashed.
2. I gzipped the kernel manually as this was skipped when booting on VM. However I now saw that the C4 kernel comes already in gzipped version and must only be copied.

Hence the new image should finally boot.

I was on vacation and I'll give it a try next weekend. THX
