Which version of system do you use? Khadas official images, self built images, or others?

Ubuntu 20.04, using khadas official image

Can the motherboard be started normally using the firmware image on our official website?

Yes it is working properly with the official image. I feel there might be issue in the source code building.

So what parts did you modify? It may be that the part you modified caused the image to fail to make the main board work normally. Send the content you modified to have a look

Hi @xiong.zhang
I am attaching the snapshots of the build, where image burning has failed. Please let me know how I can resolve this.
