Armbian is *NOT* Debian  They do things differently there. Some of their
images are based on Ubuntu, others on Debian. They usually use the BSP -
Board Support Package - from the hardware vendor but that could be using any
kernel. We've gone through all of this multiple times, Gene: the reason
no one can support you on Armbian is because it's basically a different
and unknown quantity. It may be sufficently similar that we can extrapolate
but it's like taking a Volkswagen into a Toyota dealer and anticipating they
can fix it immediately with no prior knowledge. It might be like taking 
an EV into your friendly mechanic who has never seen one - who knows how
long the learning curve is for all of us. That's before we get into the fact
that most of us have never seen a BananaPi 5 and never will.

The lock ups are indeterminate because you can't ever tell us what you've done
to get into this state. At this point, bringing up orca and brltty is once
again old news and not relevant. Ten days or two weeks ago, you promised
that this would be the end of this because you'd go and finally do a clean
install as install 31. Please do so - simplify everything, unmount your RAID
until you've done a basic install and come back when you can show history
of what you've done. I don't deny that you have problems but the vagueness
of response over a period of years doesn't help you plead your case.
And the bookworm install isn't irremediably broken - thousands of installs
by other people suggest that the problem may be yours and yours alone.
