[Bug]: Banana Pi M5 Jammy build fails with binfmts

[PurpleMyst]

What happened?

While trying to build an Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS image for my Banana Pi M5, I get an error related to binfmts, saying that they cannot be updated.

How to reproduce?

Reproduction happens with the following build.yml workflow file, which is almost verbatim included in the repository's README.md. (NB: using ubuntu-latest does not work either)

name: "Build Armbian"
on:
  workflow_dispatch:
jobs:
  build-armbian:
    runs-on: ubuntu-22.04
    steps:
      - uses: armbian/build@main
        with:
          armbian_token:     "${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}"  # GitHub token
          armbian_release:   "jammy"                        # userspace
          armbian_target:    "build"                        # build=image, kernel=kernel
          armbian_board:     "bananapim5"                   # build target

Branch

Thank you for reporting!

Fixed. Since you build aarch64, switch runner to

runs-on: ubuntu-24.04-arm

It will be much much faster.
