View Chinese description | 查看中文说明

Some files needed for compilation related to amlogic-s9xxx kernel are stored in the directory.

amlogic-armbian

The files stored here are related files that need to be used when packaging Armbian.

amlogic-dtb

For more Armbian firmware .dtb files are in the amlogic-dtb directory. When writing into EMMC through armbian-install, select 0: Enter the dtb file name of your box.

amlogic-kernel

The kernel files needed to compile Armbian are stored in the amlogic-kernel directory. For usage, see amlogic-kernel/README.md

amlogic-u-boot

When you use Armbian with 5.10 kernel, you need to copy the corresponding u-boot file in the overload directory as u-boot.ext, when using in EMMC, you need to copy the u-boot file as u-boot.emmc . Some devices need to write the corresponding bootloader file.

These duplications are automated in the repository's packaging and install/upgrade scripts, eliminating the need for manual duplication. For the specific files corresponding to each model, see amlogic-u-boot

common-files

• files: The files in the common-files/files directory are custom files, which must be completely consistent with the structure and file naming and storage under the ROOTFS partiton in Armbian. If there are files in this directory, they will be automatically copied to the Armbian directory during sudo ./rebuild. E.g:

etc/network/interfaces
usr/sbin

• patches: This is the directory where patch files are stored. You can place extension files, patches, etc. in this directory.
