3) Then boot W95 from emmc. Several services, including ssh, do not start. I am able to login using attached keyboard. TV display shows several errors

4) Then insert SD card and reboot. This time the distro works

Looks like the distro works Ok from SD card but not from emmc

Yes, I've seen that one, but the kernel was 5.15 and I can't find such installer.

[ophub]

update kernel

[moodyblue]

Downgrading to kernel 5.10.230 fails. Downgrading to kernel 5.15.173 seems to work in SD card but gives error in armbian-install.
