You may take a look here, esp. section "Troubleshooting" [ArmbianGeneral purposeRaspberry Pi](https://www.armbian.com/rpi4b/) Edit: Typo in link corrected.

Thank you very much. But these links aren't helping me, or I don't understand them.

Sorry little typo in link, corrected now.

The hint on the link did at least not work for me

apt update
dpkg --remove --force-all libraspberrypi0 armbian-bsp-cli-rpi4b-current
apt --fix-broken install
apt install armbian-bsp-cli-rpi4b-current

After lots of back and forth, I am now stuck on my Pi 5:

My solution was:

  • boot a regular RaspberriPi OS from SD-Card
  • mount the latest nextcloudpi image once booted (losetup, or just flash it to a USB stick or SD-card and mount it)
  • mount boot and boot/firmware from device with the broken installation (NVMe in my case)
  • copy boot and boot/firmware from the nextcloudpi image to the mountpoint of the broken installation on the NVMe
  • reboot from the "broken" device (NVMe)
  • system comes up again but fails to start some services such as proc-sys-fs-binfmt_misc
  • dpkg --remove --force-all libraspberrypi0 armbian-bsp-cli-rpi5b-current
  • apt --fix-broken install
  • apt install armbian-bsp-cli-rpi5b-current
  • uninstall and re-install linux-dtb-current-bcm2712
  • reinstall linux-image-current-bcm2712
  • reboot
  • System came back online perfectly healthy

Maybe it would have been enough to run:

  • dpkg --remove --force-all libraspberrypi0 armbian-bsp-cli-rpi5b-current
  • apt --fix-broken install
  • apt install armbian-bsp-cli-rpi5b-current
  • apt remove linux-dtb-current-bcm2712
  • apt reinstall linux-dtb-current-bcm2712
  • apt reinstall linux-image-current-bcm2712

I hope this helps someone ...
