02:31 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <rpardini> You have a corrupted .deb in the cache (armbian-firmware). Try deleting the `output` directory in build directory and trying again.

05:44 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> Did that several times. Never got it to work, but no matter, Igor saves the day with the new build! 🙂

05:52 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> Working with the Cubie a5e (great work on getting everything working, armbian team!!), and this is my first NVME SBC. Normally, when I run `armbian-install` on other SBC's (like the RockPi-S) that have an eMMC, I select "Boot from SD - system on SATA, USB or NVME" and that copies the SD image to the eMMC and it will boot off the eMMC when there's no SD, but off the SD when there's an SD. Perfect.

05:52 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> What is the correct selection when using an NVME? Again, I want it to boot from the NVME when there's no SD card inserted, but boot from the SD when it's inserted.

05:52 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> With the bootable image on the SD card, booted from the SD card, on the a5e, the choices are:

05:52 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> 1. Boot from SD - system on SATA, USB or NVMe

05:52 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> 4. Boot from MTD Flash - system on SATA, USB or NVMe

05:52 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> 5. Install/Update the bootloader on SD card (/dev/mmcblk0)

05:52 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> 8. Download and flash clean image

05:52 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> I assume it's #1, but I haven't worked with an MTD Flash, maybe it's #4?

06:02 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> Tried #4, and it still boots from the SD when inserted, but not from the NVME when the SD isn't inserted.

06:02 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> Here's the boot log:

06:02 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/857944478269702214/1468486805421821952/a5e_NVME_Bootlog_2026-02-03.txt?ex=69843269&is=6982e0e9&hm=753925fd9c38ac81425df11c3db3b163c3086c8198850edc4f15522fb0edcbf3&

06:06 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> The boot log looks like maybe it's the old Radxa bootloader. Do I need to write a bootloader to the MTD somehow?

06:09 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <meestor_x> Tried #1, and it gets stuck at boot. Here's the boot log:

15:25 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <superkali> i'm planning to test my current boards this sunday.

15:39 <yang3> Hopefully I can test bananaPI and rock 5b

16:03 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> cool, tnx. yang3: can you check if sata works. Someone recently complained that it doesn't work, then someone said it does work ...

16:20 <yang3> How do I check sata?

16:20 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> attach sata disk

16:21 <yang3> Hmm, I don't have a spare one

16:21 <yang3> It's not SSD drive, right?

16:21 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> ok then forget

16:22 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> any is good

16:22 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> ssd or mechanical

16:22 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> just powering must be done external if you will go with 3.5 inch

16:22 <yang3> OK , I can probably check SSD on rock5b

16:22 <yang3> I have a spare ssd

16:25 <yang3> I mean I have NVME, it doesn't connect over sata plug

16:29 <yang3> Does NVME have problem on rock5b?

19:01 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> it should work
