armbian-install fails S912

apoklyps3 commented 1 year ago

I'm trying to install armbian directly on eMMC on my MECOOL-M8S-Pro-L , as running from sdcard always fails (ext4-fs error) after some time. I check the SD Card, no errors or bad blocks, maybe it's a power source issue so I want to exclude external storage as an issue.

This is what I get. Makes no difference if I use "armbian-install" with no parameters.

root@armbian: # sudo armbian-install -m yes -a no
