Tinkerboard / S

  • Severe powering troubles due to Micro USB power connector. It’s recommended to power through GPIO pins to prevent under-voltage issues (instabilities, boot/crash cycles). Powering situation is a little improved/masked on model S.
  • serial console is enabled on UART2 (pin 32, 33, 34=gnd)
  • eMMC flashing (model Tinkerboard S with eMMC) can be done the same way as burning an SD card. Connect your board with USB cable to your computer (Linux or Windows) and eMMC will be seen as a new hard drive. Burn an image to this drive. Wait until it's done, detach from computer and power with your normal PSU.
  • booting from SD card on S model is possible in Maskrom mode.

Odroid XU4 / HCx

For HC1 and HC2 we provide specially optimized config which you can enable via armbian-config -> system -> kernel -> select odroid configuration. This results in shorter boot time and lower consumption. Manualls – edit or create /boot/armbianEnv.txt and add: board_name=xu4 # or xu3, xu3, hc1

Overlay management via armbian-config is not supported. You need to edit /boot/boot.ini and add overlays manually. Look for a line:
setenv overlays "i2c0 i2c1 hktft-cs-ogst"

Here you add what you need. More you can find in /boot/dtb/ or /boot/dtb/overlays

Make sure to adjust path in

ext4load mmc 0:1 0x60000000 /boot/dtb/overlays/${overlay}.dtbo

accordingly.
