Radxa Dragon Q6A

Armbian requires the latest UEFI firmware for this board available here: https://forum.radxa.com/t/radxa-dragon-q6a-firmware-snapshot/

For flashing the (extracted) armbian image to UFS storage you can use the same edl-ng tool from flashing the firmware with this command:

./edl-ng --loader prog_firehose_ddr.elf --memory UFS write-sector 0 *.img

Note:

Currently, booting is only supported from SD Card or NVMe.
UFS is available only as external storage, but support for UFS boot will be added soon.
To enable booting from NVMe, the bootloader must be installed on SPI NOR using either armbian-install or rkdeveloptool.

Installation to NVME or USB is done via standard armbian install utility (sudo armbian-install). Make sure to generate partitions and format them before start.
For UFS ready images use an image with the Extension UFS and flash it directly either via an USB-Adapter or via `rkdeveloptool`. See this Docs page for more information on how to flash Rockchip boards via Maskrom mode.

Radxa Rock 5B Plus

Ubuntu Noble 24.11.1 GNOME Testing:	Rolling Release (25.2.x) Testing:
Kernel Vendor 6.1.75 Boot ok, from emmc and nvme HDMI ok, boot splash screen shows up USB-C DP + HDMI at the same time wonky (alone both work as intended) USB2 and USB3 ok 2.5GbE Ethernet ok WiFi ok Bluetooth “Failed to set mode: Failed (0x03)” Analog audio codec is ok Reboot and shutdown work as intended 4K YouTube Playback fine with Mesa-VPU extension	Kernel Vendor 6.1.84 Everything from 6.1.75 Fixed Bluetooth search & pairing

Images here are for 5B, for model 5A can be found here.
Some eMMC devices are broken on 5A
PD is broken for the 5B model (background) on most revisions that are in the wild and is causing boot loop. Workaround is to use a stupid / fixed 5-24 volts USB-C power supply.
Installation to NVME or USB is done via standard armbian install utility (sudo armbian-install). Make sure to generate partitions and format them before start.
