armbian-add-overlay error

[roderick1980]

Hello,
according to "uname -a", I've got a Linux olimex 4.15.0-sunxi system.
I've successfully installed the following kernel headers: linux-headers-dev-sunxi and also linux-headers-next-sunxi.

When I execute the "armbian-add-overlay" command from /boot/overlay-users, I've got the next error message:
"Kernel headers are not installed properly. Please install the kernel headers package"

Can anybody help me with this?

Thanks in advance

Use NEXT branch, kernel 4.14.y ... and you will have overlays. You are using some DEVelopment version, where patches for overlay support might be missing.

You can try 4.17.y, where this should work, but ... it's also in a testing phase: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/7503-we-need-your-help/

Hi,
thanks for your quick response, Igor.
I'll try it.

Hi again,
I've tried with sunxi-4.18, but unfortunately I get the following command line output when I execute "compile.sh":

What are you compiling, build logs?

[roderick1980]

Hello Igor,

thanks for your interest.

You will find the URL of the logs below:

output.log
patching.log

By the way, I've found that compiling for A20 instead of A20 som204 gives no error.

Kind regards

@StefanMavrodiev Can you check up on this? I just switched master branch -> NEXT u-boot and kernel to 2018.05 / 4.17.y and som204 patch broke. I guess it was broken before on DEV as well.

[selfbg]

@igorpecovnik A20-SOM204 is supported in 2018.05, so you need to remove add-A20-Olimex-SOM204-EVB-board.patch and board_olimex-som204-a20/Change-GMAC-phy-address.patch.

[roderick1980]

Hello,

Yesterday I tried to compile against a new Armbian branch called sunxi-4.18-tmp and I found an error while compiling u-boot. By comparing som204 config against a20-som config and looking at the compile errors, I assume that problem was in the lack of a CONFIG_SCSI_AHCI variable declaration.

After inserting this config variable, I could succesfully build a linux 4.17 kernel based system from this branch and HDMI DDC functionality is now available as a /dev/i2c-X device.

I attach the patch that worked for me in case you find it of any use.

Thank you very much for your help.

Try master now. It was fixed a few hours ago and it probably works. If it doesn't work, then upstream configuration needs adjustments. We don't add this board with a patch anymore.
