Conversation
New documentation about using SD card to test multiple kernel versions.
WalkthroughAdds two documentation updates: a new guide docs/boot_multiple_kernel.md describing how to run multiple Armbian kernels by preparing separate SD cards, flashing distinct Armbian images (examples using BalenaEtcher or dd), performing initial per-card setup (filesystem resize, set root password, create user), and switching kernels by swapping cards; and an expanded Release_Changelog.md entry for v25.8.1 (2025-08-17) listing many bug fixes, packaging/build changes, driver and board updates, and minor formatting whitespace.

Fix dd instructions for macOS compatibility; split Linux/macOS with correct flags and steps
The current dd example won’t work on macOS (BSD dd doesn’t support status=progress and typically uses bs=1m; device is /dev/rdiskN). Also, “Unzip” is inaccurate for .xz images—use “decompress”. Propose a precise, safe rewrite.
- ### Using `dd` (Linux/macOS users)
- - Unzip the Armbian image file (`.xz`).
- - Identify your SD card's device name with `lsblk` or `diskutil list`.
- - Run:
- ```bash
- sudo dd if=/path/to/armbian-image.img of=/dev/sdX bs=1M status=progress && sync
- ```
- Replace `/path/to/armbian-image.img` and `/dev/sdX` with the correct path and device name.
- - **Be extremely careful** to select the right device to avoid data loss.
+ ### Using `dd` (advanced)
+ - Decompress the image first if using `dd` (Etcher can flash `.xz` directly):
+ ```bash
+ unxz /path/to/armbian-image.img.xz
+ ```
+ - Identify your SD card device:
+ - Linux: `lsblk` (device looks like `/dev/sdX` or `/dev/mmcblkX`)
+ - macOS: `diskutil list` (device looks like `/dev/diskN` and raw `/dev/rdiskN`)
+ - Linux (GNU dd):
+ ```bash
+ sudo dd if=/path/to/armbian-image.img of=/dev/sdX bs=4M conv=fsync status=progress
+ ```
+ - macOS (BSD dd):
+ ```bash
+ diskutil unmountDisk /dev/diskN
+ sudo dd if=/path/to/armbian-image.img of=/dev/rdiskN bs=1m ; sync
+ # Tip: press Ctrl+T to see progress on macOS, or install coreutils and use `gdd ... status=progress`
+ ```
+ Replace `/path/to/armbian-image.img`, `/dev/sdX`, `/dev/diskN`, and `/dev/rdiskN` with your actual paths/devices.
+ - Double-check the device path to avoid data loss.🧰 Tools

In docs/boot_multiple_kernel.md around lines 39-47, the dd instructions are
inaccurate for macOS and the .xz step is mislabeled as "Unzip"; update the
section to (1) say "decompress .xz" (or recommend Etcher) rather than "unzip",
(2) split Linux and macOS commands with correct device names and flags: for
Linux recommend GNU dd with bs=4M conv=fsync status=progress, and for macOS
instruct to unmount the disk with diskutil, target the raw device (/dev/rdiskN),
use BSD dd with bs=1m and run sync afterwards (or suggest installing
coreutils/gdd to get status=progress), and (3) keep a clear warning to
double-check the target device to avoid data loss.

10-105: Make PR references clickable and unambiguous.Many entries end with “in #NNNN” without the repository, so they won’t auto-link in most renderers. For consistency with older sections below (which use full URLs), expand these to full PR links including the repo, or at least wrap with <> if your site autolinks “org/repo#NNNN”.
Example (adjust repo as appropriate per entry before applying broadly):

Fix list rendering: de-indent and use standard Markdown bullets instead of a 4‑space indented "•".
As written, each line starts with 4 spaces and the "•" glyph, which most Markdown renderers interpret as a code block, not a list. This will render poorly (monospace block), break wrapping, and impair navigation. Use "-" (or "*") without the 4-space indent, and keep one item per line.

In docs/Release_Changelog.md around lines 10 to 105, the list items are indented
with four spaces and a "•" glyph which Markdown treats as a code block; remove
the leading four spaces and replace the "•" with a standard list marker ("-" or
"*") so each entry is a proper markdown bullet on its own line, ensuring no
extra indentation and preserving the existing text; optionally convert the
trailing "in #NNNN" fragments into proper issue/PR links if desired.

@mrobinson-opi I think it would be better to open a new PR containing only the actual changes. I noticed that you added Release_changelog as a test. To avoid confusion, it might also be a good idea to rebase your branch instead of merging. |
New documentation about using SD card to test multiple kernel versions.
