TV Box Installation Guide

Follow the steps below to install and configure Armbian on your TV box:

  1. Flash the image to the SD card using BalenaEtcher.
  2. Unplug the SD card and plug it back into your laptop. Look for the drive named "BOOT".
  3. Edit enEnv.ext in the "BOOT" drive and change FDT=/dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905x-b860h.dtb to FDT=/dtb/amlogic/meson-sc2-s905x4-akari-ax810.dtb.
  4. Edit extlinux.conf.bak in the "BOOT" drive and change fdt /dtb/amlogic/meson-gxl-s905x-b860h.dtb to fdt /dtb/amlogic/meson-sc2-s905x4-akari-ax810.dtb.
  5. Delete u-boot.ext from the "BOOT" drive.
  6. Insert the SD card into the TV box.

Post-installation

  1. Log in via SSH:
    • Username: root
    • Password: 1234
  2. After completing the setup, run the armbian-tf command to expand the SD card size to its maximum capacity (from 4GB).

Note

  • If this is your first installation of Armbian, you must push the reset button before plugging in the power adapter to enable booting from the SD card.
  • The TV box will automatically boot from the SD card in subsequent starts if the SD card contains the bootloader.
