Visibly, sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration encounters some mess related to insserv and or update-rc.d,
WTF !!!
for now, this is my best bet
localectl set-keymap fr
but it does not do the job
And I definitely need to fix the mess with my startup scripts and init.d which visibly prevents me from running my beloved kbd configuration command (sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration)
about wifi ,
it also works;
I can connect to my phone’s hotspot,
shutdown eth0, and still manage to do an apt-get update successfully;
you remember I could not connect on a channel 13 wifi network yet,
but at least I can say that this current distro (4.12.7/16.04.3) is doing wifi (and maybe will not stall as ethernet did with older versions of the mainline kernel)
to be tested under load (like downloading a big video file maybe)
I kinda failed at my very 1st attempt to build a .deb kernel package,
please check logs below and help me understand what went wrong…tks

After googling the errors,
I ended up trying this new command line:
make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- deb-pkg
first errors are now gone,I wait for build result
I still have no idea of what to do next to take into account the dtb and the modules, and how to install all this on a running 4.9 or 4.12.7 system…
Edit:
build ended without error,
now, I see no evident sign of a .deb file anywhere, so, where is it ?
Ok, while I try to get documented on how to build a debian kernel package,
I decided to build the full xenial distro including the up-to-date 4.12.10 stable kernel;
and the good news is,
the build method I described before just works as well on the latest (4.12.10) mainline stable kernel sources;
so now, I managed to build, deploy and boot a working ubuntu base16.04.3+kernel 4.12.10
the bad news is,USB keyboard does not get recognized yet: no message in console nor in dmesg when I plug my usb keyboard,
and lsusb command cannot be found! this is too baaad !
As @balbes150 says his armbian built with the same kernel has working usb ports and I cannot get usb to work yet, I need to figure out what could be wrong in my distro;
I recommend using this step-by-step manual to start the Assembly. By the way, you can start the build only one kernel and get the output files of the kernel and dtb, and you can specify in customizing, that would have been collected ready deb\rpm packages which can install the usual commands in the existing system.
cd amlogic-bsp/
source poky/oe-init-build-env
export MACHINE=khadas-vim
bitbake amlogic-image-headless-initrd
after a while, I get these errors…

II can’t figure out what is wrong, after looking in the error log and make file for glibc, I tried to set
export ENABLE_BINARY_LOCALE_GENERATION=1
but the same errors pop up again and again.
Anyone might have any clue on what I could change ?
I 'm so sorry I finally need to give up on octo poky, I cannot figure out how to build a kernel the OpenEmbedded way.
So back to mainline legacy and trying to validate my existing protocol on 4.12.14
stay tuned.
EDIT:
4.12.14 + xenial successfully built (even if need to recheck some error messages)
boots ok,
serial console ok
ethernet works,
distro updates and upgrades ok
login prompt displayed on hdmi
BT installs ok
