Ethernet Issues on DietPi - rgreen - 10-20-2020
Armbian install by way of Diet Pi.
I was really looking forward to moving our self-hosted services to a more capable SBC. I need a solid ethernet connection that the H64b doesn't seem to want to provide. I'm going to check with Manjaro build, but arch isn't my flavour and I'm not looking to manage a single non-debian based distro.
Am I sending this thing back to Pine? What was the purpose of the h64 if it's barely supported by anything?

Hello,
you can try Armbian , the ethernet should work here.

Ethernet on Manjaro does work (just trying to save you the hassle). I share your frustrations on the H64, though, I have given up using it for awhile until kernel development is more mature.

Tried Manjaro Arm and it worked. That just tells me I need to work Armbian harder for a solution. It works during boot and provides a nts timesync before getting:
Code:
dwmac-sun8i 5020000.ethernet eth0 is downaround the 35s mark. (not an actual copy from the log.)

Root of the problem was the Armbian build diet-pi 6.29 was based off. Rebasing their 6.33 image on a newer Buster seemed to fix the ethernet issue when I tested it.

I'm having the same problem with ETH0 as well as HDMI.
I believe, it's related to ATF is enabling regulators.
The fix is to downgrade ATF
