Mara, thanks a lot for fixing this so quickly.
I just tested the xfce build with kernel 6.6.97.
I changed the dtb to 1.2a in uEnv.txt and it boots up the desktop.

mara 
My uboot continues to use StarFive and irradium starts normally.
Excuse me, does irradium have mirror sites in China? When I update irradium in China, the download speed is very slow.
I found mirrors, but they did not answer
Okay, thank you, Mara。
Perhaps you can tell us about those mirrors, and we will try in China to see if there is a response. We are on the Chinese network.
To install binary packages you need to use pkg-get
Now that I have Irradium working on my VF2, I installed chrony to automatically set the clock. I also followed the guide for fakeroot, but I changed the last step from create user to add user to group.
sudo usermod -m -G wheel,pkgmk -s /bin/bash user_name

@mara hi , mara ,
Will irradium support GRUB boot system in the future? Just like after the official release of Debian 13 Trixie.
Be sure to set the DIP switches correctly for your boot medium. Boot methods SD and eMMC directly from StarFive JH7110 CPU loader are deprecated and should not be used as they have been removed from vendor documentation and are incompatible to GUID Partition Table disk representation. Remaining valid boot methods are UART for recovery action and SPI NOR flash for U-Boot bootloader (which can then itself correctly boot from SD and eMMC).

I don’t have any such intentions yet, but I’ll keep an eye on it.
I respect your choice.
