Video : How to install Official Armbian + Desktop set up + install to NVMe

#1

Hi all.
I’ve made a new video with the RockPi4B on how to install official Armbian.
I also show how I set up my desktop, and how to install Armbian onto an external device.
Here’s my video.

Greetings,

Hi Nico, saw your Video yesterday. Will try it later. Think will 1st load Armbian into my emmc card and then the rest in my KingSpec 256GB NVMe drive. Thank you.

Hi brother, any way Armbian will run off NVMe drive only?

Hi. I’m not sure.
I can’t connect my NVMe drives to my pc to install the image directly.
You could try it. You must have your spi flash updated for this.

Fntastic video NicoD… I tried to install on XPG SX8200 Pro PCI-E x4 NVMe M.2 and system didn’t even see it, so I switched to Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe M.2 PCI-E x4 to finally be able to see it.

Hello, thank you, it is nice video. But how it is if I have RockPI 4 1.4A and already running from eMMC with configured Armbian and I would like to move this configured Armbian from eMMC to NVME and boot from them?
