Are you confused ? Default in (uEnv.ini) DTB for s905x2 is installed. AM6 is a model of Ugoos AM6 (s922x) TV box.

Yes, I have seen and in the next versions of the images there will be a name replacement in the settings.

Hi!
Could you support the xfs module in the Linux kernel?
I’d like to use it for NAS purpose.
Thank you.
Best wishes!

You can build your kernel with any set of options available in the official mainline kernel.

balbes150 · July 26, 2019, 9:24am

need to run the latest version of Armbian and see how wifi and BT work.

Spikerguy · July 26, 2019, 9:25am

Armbian from usb boot? Which is the latest kvim1 build? @balbes150

I can do that in next few hours.

Have you got time to see the 5.3 rc changes?

balbes150 · July 26, 2019, 9:49am

All versions of Armbian support starting from SD and USB. The latest version with kernel 5.2.x are universal for all S9xx (DTB must be configured correctly before running).

Tried it. WIFI and Bluetooth works fine without any problem. How can I add the wifi and Bluetooth firmware file in the Manajro Built. In Manjaro when I install the Wifi firmware then the Bluetooth stops working.

Screenshots below.

Try replacing the entire contents of /lib/firmware/brcm in Mangaro with similar contents from Armbian.

Spikerguy · July 26, 2019, 1:47pm

Sure. I will try that.

Spikerguy · July 26, 2019, 2:22pm
