@Frank
Oh, I don’t have to re-compile the kernel, I found somthing in uboot output and boot.ini
the kernel is detected as legacy kernel.
echo "Booting mainline kernel...";setenv condev "console=ttyAML0,1152.... echo "Booting legacy kernel...";setenv condev "console=ttyS0,1152....
mainline kernel use ‘/dev/AML0’ to instead of ‘/dev/ttyS0’
Just replace ‘ttyS0’ to ‘ttyAML0’

fighting for free disk space…
you could have just uploaded a .img.7z file…
sudo tar xvf ~/Downloads/ArchLinuxArm_Server_VIM1_20190718.tar
ArchLinuxArm_Khadas_VIM1_20190718.img
tar: ArchLinuxArm_Khadas_VIM1_20190718.img: Cannot change ownership to uid 0, gid 0: Operation not permitted
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
anyway, I get this:
-rw-r–r-- 1 raxy raxy 3565158400 juil. 18 13:02 ArchLinuxArm_Khadas_VIM1_20190718.img
I hope this img is correct !
Now flashing it… sudo dd if=ArchLinuxArm_Khadas_VIM1_20190718.img bs=8M of=/dev/sdb status=progress

Let the fun really begin now…
Yes, that’s correct.
I’ll try 7z with next image.
do I have to put
in uboot on my emmc ? how to do that ?
as I’ve deployed the image on an USB stick,
according to
I would need to use an extra SD card having an appropriate boot.ini to make the VIM1 use the kernel and system that are on my USB stick
now finally flashing your img on an SD card…
something is visibly wrong; when booting w/ sd card inserted : system bootloops while saying…

I thought the github boot.ini was more recent that the one in the img, so I updated the file on the SD and rebooted, but kernel still cannot start !
so, I give up for today 
I think you haven’t load zImage and uInitrd,
What’s the cfgload?
Which image in your emmc?
in my emmc is the latest official khadas ubuntu 18.04 kernel 4.9.40
Are you sure, my emmc’s kernel version is 4.9.179
where exatly did your emmc’s 4.9.179 kernel and distro come from ?
did you home build it with fenix or download it prebuilt from an url ?
here is what’s in my emmc:

Can you provide command help output ? Your uboot version is different, you should replace some command to your uboot’s.
kvim#load mmc 0:1 1080000 zImage
Unknown command 'load' - try 'help'
kvim#load mmc 0:1 1000000 uInitrd
Unknown command 'load' - try 'help'
kvim#load mmc 0:1 2000000 dtb.img
Unknown command 'load' - try 'help'
will those make the vim boot from SD or from emmc ?
I think you should try to replace ‘load’ to ‘fatload’ in the boot.ini
