If the internal flash does not contain a bootable system, they will always boot from the sdcard. Technically, rockchip devices cannot be bricked. U-boot boot order priority : first the sdcard, then the USB OTG port and eventually the internal eMMC you can install u-boot (and the whole system) in the internal eMMC and u-boot will always check for images on external sdcard/USB first.Full GPU acceleration on legacy kernel, mainline kernel has lima driver compiled in but X11 is very slow - you are still free to compile and install mali kernel driver on mainline yourself.Various WIFI over SDIO are supported (SSV6051 P, SSV6256P, ESP8089, Realtek chips, etc.), but ssv6x5x drivers are available only on legacy kernel.To fully boot from NAND, use the Multitool and its steP- nand installation (instructions are below) NAND is available only on legacy kernel.Hardware video acceleration (fully supported via RKMPP on legacy kernel, partial support via hantro kernel driver on mainline).MMC subsystem (including eMMC, SD and sdio devices).OTG USB 2.0 port (also as boot device!).Serial UART (configured at 115200 bps, not 1.5Mbps!).OPTEE provided as Trusted Execution Environment.Should boot and work flawlessy on all boards with RK3228a, RK3228b and RK3229, with either DDR2 and DDR3 memories. Most of the love has been poured into supporting and bringing up the legacy rockchip 4.4 kernel, but in the near future the goal is to fully support the mainline kernel. The project is now in -> mainline Armbian here <. Please don't ask about support or assistance in other non-community forums nor in the official Armbian github repository, instead post your questions in this thread, in the TV Boxes forum section (hardware related) or in the Peer-to-peer support section (general linux/software related).įollowing the recent thread on LibreElec forum about an unofficial image for rk3229 devices, I would like to make public the work made by me and about bringing rk322x support to armbian. For this reason not people from Armbian project nor myself are responsible for misuse or loss of functionality of hardware. DISCLAIMER (PLEASE READ): everything you can find in this thread (binaries, texts, code snippets, etc.) are provided AS-IS and are not part of official Armbian project.
