I think 5.14.15 works better, which is included in this image as default kernel.
Each kernels firs ...

Thanks for the input. Noted.

Just to highlight, chromium-browser_95.0.4638.69-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 with some experimental flags enabled, is not that stable on Ubuntu-Impish but surprisingly same settings on Ubuntu-Focal even with same errors showing but more stable in Ubuntu-Focal.  Interesting.

We are using second stage bootloader which is not working on sdcard.
There are sd card compatible second stage bootloaders but they are not stable, mainline kernel freezes when using them.

Thanks for the work you do.
The rom run well, but the version with 4.9 on a fast sdcard is very fluid. It would be very nice to have this option on 4.9 bat no video acceleration.

Hi darkstar I have come up with bootscripts and upstream kernel to be used to boot over bsp uboot and avoid use of second stage bootloader chainloading.  

With this we should have a stable system and can boot from sd, usb and also flash it on emmc using the install-to-emmc script.

I will share the source once i test it on. Gt king pro and gt 1 ultimate.

I have already tested it on vim2 and ugoos am6 plus.  
Beelink GTR7 (7840HS) - Manjaro Linux
Beelink SER5 (5600U) - Manjaro Linux
Beelink GT1 Ultimate (S912) - Libre Elec TV
Beelink GT King Pro (S922X-H) - Manjaro ARM Linux
Beelink GS King X (S922X-H)  -

I won't mind testing it on @darkstar Ubuntu-Impish image on GT King Pro.  If the bootscript and upstream kernel is easy enough to execute or with some guides.  Thanks.

I installed this Ubuntu-Impish image onto my Beelink GT King Pro and working well.  However, since I am a novice with Linux, I have installed Emby server, but I can't add any media.  My media is stored on different hard drives connected to a mini Windows PC.  I think I have to do something in Linux to get the server running on this King Pro to use those hard drives, but don't know how.  Still researching.

You need install samba server on your gt-king pro
"sudo armbian-config" and go to "Softwares" in the "Softy" you can add "smb"
