Armbian 26.02 Arrives with Linux 6.18 LTS and Expanded Board Support
The Armbian project has released Armbian 26.02, the latest update to the lightweight Linux distribution designed specifically for ARM and RISC-V single-board computers (SBCs). Known for its stability and hardware optimization, Armbian continues to evolve with improved hardware support, new desktop options, and updated core components in this release.
A Linux Distribution Tailored for SBCsArmbian is built on top of Debian or Ubuntu, providing optimized system images for single-board computers such as Orange Pi, Banana Pi, and ODROID devices. The project focuses on stability, performance, and long-term maintenance for embedded and development boards.
With the 26.02 release, the developers continue that mission by refining support for modern hardware platforms and improving the overall software stack.
Powered by Linux 6.18 LTSOne of the biggest upgrades in Armbian 26.02 is the transition to Linux kernel 6.18 LTS, which brings improved driver support, performance enhancements, and better compatibility for newer SBC hardware.
The newer kernel helps ensure that Armbian remains compatible with evolving chipsets while maintaining stability across its supported devices.
New Board SupportThis release expands Armbian’s hardware ecosystem with support for several new boards, including:
-
SpacemiT MusePi Pro
-
Radxa Rock 4D
-
Orange Pi RV2
-
ODROID M2
These additions reflect Armbian’s ongoing focus on supporting emerging ARM and RISC-V development boards used by hobbyists, developers, and embedded system builders.
Desktop ImprovementsArmbian 26.02 also introduces expanded desktop options:
-
RISC-V XFCE desktop images for supported RISC-V systems
-
Restored KDE Neon desktop builds
-
Updated desktop targets based on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
These changes give users more flexibility when choosing between lightweight environments or more full-featured desktop setups.
Enhancements to Armbian ToolsThe Armbian ecosystem itself has also received improvements. The Armbian Imager utility, used to flash OS images to SBC storage devices, now features:
-
Faster image decompression
-
Code signing for improved security on macOS and Windows
-
AI-assisted translation support
-
A new settings panel with additional developer options
