Thank @Darkstar, I thought that the Manjaro version was not really finished since on the forum it is marked developer only ..
And especially what I wanted installed is Yunohost, it is an OS based on Debian which allows you to create your own server web in a simplified way. It works on raspbery pi, so I was hoping to run this OS on my GT-King Pro but it is not won ...
Thanks again @darkstar at least I got a response, @beelink doesn't often respond ...
I'm still going to relaunch a Yunohost fresh-install without doing a restore this time, maybe my concern comes from my backup.
@Darkstar can you build debian with the full install process, I think about location, language and all we can adjust on the first install, user, passwd,... Thank again.. Hava a nice day..

The problem is still there even after a "sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade"
I tested with the 2 Debian versions of @darkstar but each time I have this problem with "Iptables"
I hope @darkstar can fix this, and do another debian build ..
Or is there any configuration to do ??
Please..
Thanks again..

Hi you can try install @darkstar Debian 5.10.12 and then install Debian kernel 5.10.19-1 using Synaptic Package Manger (it might not have wifi or sound) but should have ethernet.  See whether the Debian kenel 5.10.19-1 support your needs.

@gtkingpr.ac2n,

I thought from the forum.manjaro.org messages you had understood that GT King Pro will encounter system freeze/kernel panic on Linux Mainline kernel unless a chainloader u-boot.ext is being use.  You can use the u-boot.ext from @darkstar Debian_5.10.12 image.    This should resolve the kernel panic and it works as I had tried it before.  Yes you can use the meson-g12b-gtking.pro.dtb from @darkstar Debian-5.10.12 or from Manjaro-Arm.

I have raised the issue of GT King Pro having system freeze/kernel panic on Beelink Forum.

Good luck and do share your experience on whether this Armbian image eventhough older kernel but it works well (sound, wifi, ethernet and bluetooth all working on GT King Pro) but not sure whether it will work on your particular needs/requirements.

Hello, and thank you jfl for your answer, indeed I expected some problems since I had your post with the kernel panic problem ...

So I boot with Armbian_20.10_Arm-64_buster_current_5.9.0.img
I just rename the file uboot-s905x2-s922 in uboot.ext, I also added to the list of dtb amlogic, the 2 dtb gtking files taken from the debian 5.10 of darkstar .. I informed the extlinux.conf file to use the dtbs previously copied (meson-g12b-gtking-pro.dtb and meson-g12b-gtking.dtb)
1st try with gtking-pro.dtb => freeze during the installation process of yunohost ...
2nd try: this morning I remembered this story of rev.a dtb and suddenly I tried with gtking.dtb => I succeeded in the whole installation process yunohost, hurray !! but I don't have an hdmi signal, although I had it with gtking-pro.dtb .. There is still a little problem with this damn .dtb file
I will continue installing yunohost (my own open-source web server with lots of web applications, it will open up the potential of gt-king) and especially see if using gtking.dtb there will be a freeze or not. .
small precision: I set the CPU governor to 500MHz-1800MHz Schedutil (it seems to me that 1800MHz is the maximum frequency for this processor ..)
I will keep you informed..
Anyway can Beelink help us, I see that he does not participate at all in the various posts around Linux ... a little support from the manufacturer would be welcome ..
thanks again
Edit : with gtking.dtb there is problem of "Freeze" too, I try yunohost backup restore but "freeze"..
