legacy kernel for rk3588, as in 5.10, will be phased out and be EOL soon, so there's probably no point in adding it. vendor is basically the same but newer (6.1).

If you're having problems with the 6.1 kernel that the 5.10 kernel doesn't have, you may be better off trying to fix 6.1 or let us know the regression instead.

So far I met 3 problems in 6.1 which I suspect my dts or uboot problem: Boot slow I/O LED not blinking When power off, lots wlan warning and errors appeared in dmesg.

~~1 problem that not ours: I can’t boot Android container in 6.1 w/ hwaccel, caused by rockchip didn’t released 6.1 kernel Android sdk(~~

Here are the exact logs using minicom, timestamp with seconds: tldr; the 5.10 one brings up getty very fast on slower sdcard than 6.1's the 6.1 brings up slower, power down logs was more verbose than 5.10.

You could try mainline U-Boot by adding this (and removing the vendor U-Boot function in the baord config):

DDR_BLOB='rk35/rk3588_ddr_lp4_2112MHz_lp5_2400MHz_v1.16.bin'
BL31_BLOB='rk35/rk3588_bl31_v1.45.elf'

# Mainline U-Boot
function post_family_config__firefly_itx_3588j_use_mainline_uboot() {
	display_alert "$BOARD" "Using mainline U-Boot for $BOARD / $BRANCH" "info"

	declare -g BOOTCONFIG="generic-rk3588_defconfig"               # Use generic defconfig which should boot all RK3588 boards
	declare -g BOOTDELAY=1                                         # Wait for UART interrupt to enter UMS/RockUSB mode etc
	declare -g BOOTSOURCE="https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot.git"   # We ❤️ Mainline U-Boot
	declare -g BOOTBRANCH="tag:v2024.07-rc4"
	declare -g BOOTPATCHDIR="v2024.07/board_${BOARD}"
	# Don't set BOOTDIR, allow shared U-Boot source directory for disk space efficiency

	declare -g UBOOT_TARGET_MAP="BL31=${RKBIN_DIR}/${BL31_BLOB} ROCKCHIP_TPL=${RKBIN_DIR}/${DDR_BLOB};;u-boot-rockchip.bin"

	# Disable stuff from rockchip64_common; we're using binman here which does all the work already
	unset uboot_custom_postprocess write_uboot_platform write_uboot_platform_mtd

	# Just use the binman-provided u-boot-rockchip.bin, which is ready-to-go
	function write_uboot_platform() {
		dd "if=$1/u-boot-rockchip.bin" "of=$2" bs=32k seek=1 conv=notrunc status=none
	}
}

Basically every RK3588 board should be able to boot with this. But I'm not sure your issues have anything to do with the bootloader.

This is basically where lots of seconds are wasted:

Maybe a bad SD card or something? it shows it needs to remount readonly.

Yes, this u-boot (https://github.com/150balbes/u-boot-rk) has issues when using the kernel from https://github.com/armbian/linux-rockchip. I suggest using the mainline kernel or referring to this commit for fixing it:
