Hi,

Thanks for your awesome image for licheepi 4a, which brings mainline to this cute board. I flashed the latest image from armbian download link and it booted flawlessly. However, I found some issues for this image:

  1. It can not reboot, I have to power it down and up manually;
  2. My board is 16G mem version, and have already flashed lpi4a-16gb-u-boot-with-spl.bin to emmc, while this image only reports 8G mem;
  3. All the usb ports don't work (not sure if it's due to broken hardware or software, they work on oem sdk...) .

This is my armbianmonitor -u output: https://paste.armbian.com/ibitukecab .

Thanks again for your work!

This is an issue with the mainline kernel and opensbi, and it is expected to be fixed in the future.

  1. My board is 16G mem version, and have already flashed lpi4a-16gb-u-boot-with-spl.bin to emmc, while this image only reports 8G mem;

You can modify this part to BOOT_FDT_FILE="thead/th1520-lichee-pi-4a-16g.dtb" and then rebuild Armbian.

  1. All the usb ports don't work (not sure if it's due to broken hardware or software, they work on oem sdk...) .

I need to confirm the issue with the upstream contributors regarding the USB problem.

The version based on the mainline kernel is highly experimental, so based on this, I would recommend using the version based on the legacy kernel.

As far as I know, the issues with versions based on the mainline kernel are far from limited to these.
