LucD 0 Posted July 26, 2025 Hi to all, I just bought a Tinkerboard 3S, to investigate the upgrade of an application build on the Tinkerboard S R2.0. On the previous version I used the armbian OS, but this is not available yet fir the 3S. When I go to the download page (https://tinker-board.asus.com/download-list.html?product=tinker-board-3) no download options/actions occur after selecting the required product. Where can I download an image to start from? Thanks, Luc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

a_s_hari 0 Posted July 28, 2025 Hi @tooz I'm encountering the same issue while trying to download the OS for the Tinker Board R2.0. Could you please share a direct download link for Android 11 in the meantime? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LucD 0 Posted October 8, 2025 Hello, Back in business. I downloaded the Tinker Board 3/3S Debian 11 (kernel 5.10) V.1.0.7 release from the download area (this section for empty before). Succesfully installed, but I encouter the following problem: sudo apt-get update and sudo apt update both fail 'cannot initiate connection on...' any the the automatic options (debian.org, ustc.edu.cn,...) while a simple sudo ping google.com works. So the internet connection is OK, but I am stuck because I can't perform the apt update... Solution? Greetings, Luc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tzuhsuan 0 Posted October 9, 2025 Hello, please modify the /etc/apt/sources.list file. Remove the following lines: deb http://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/debian/ bullseye-backports main contrib deb-src http://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/debian/ bullseye-backports main contrib Or, change them to: deb https://archive.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-backports main contrib non-free deb-src https://archive.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-backports main contrib non-free This will allow apt update to work correctly.

LucD 0 Posted October 9, 2025 HI, Thanks for the tip, but both options, remove/change were not succesfull. Is there another option (manually update?) Greetings, L. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
