`./compile.sh flash` with no arguments failed even with an image sitting in output/images: ls: cannot access '/armbian/output/images/*__*.img': No such file or directory cli_flash [ No image file specified. Using latest built image file found: ] error! [ No image file to flash. ] The lookup composed one glob out of all three of BOARD, RELEASE and BRANCH. With none of them set that collapses to '*__*.img', which cannot match an Armbian image: they are named <version>_<Board>_<release>_<branch>_... with single underscores. The glob went to `ls` unquoted, so the failure surfaced as raw ls stderr and an empty image_file, and the real message arrived two lines later. The same composition broke a partially specified invocation too. BOARD and BRANCH without RELEASE produced '*Rockpi-4a__edge*.img', which also matches nothing. Take the comment at its word and list the directory, newest first, then narrow by whichever of the three were actually set. find rather than a glob, so a missing or empty output/images yields an empty list instead of an unexpanded pattern on stderr, and the operator gets one clear error naming what to do next.

`./compile.sh flash` without CARD_DEVICE announced the image, counted
down, then exited 0 having written nothing. Nothing downstream catches
it: write_image_to_device tests `lsblk "${device}"`, which is false for
an empty device, and its in-container fallback branch is guarded by
`[[ -n ${device} ]]`, so both branches fall through and the write is
skipped in silence. To the operator that reads as a successful flash.
Check the target up front, before the countdown, and say what to pass.
Also reject a CARD_DEVICE that is not a block device, which otherwise
took the same silent path.
Docker is not the obstacle here and the message does not mention it:
lib/functions/host/docker.sh passes CARD_DEVICE into the container when
it is set.

match each nonempty board, release, and branch selector only as a complete

an unconstrained substring match. Preserve the existing sequential filtering

The per-selector image filter used a loose substring test
(candidate == *"${token}"*). Image names are
VENDOR_VERSION_Board_release_branch_kver..., where Board/release/branch are
underscore-delimited middle fields, so a short release/branch (e.g. 'sid',
'edge') could match inside another field and keep the wrong image. Anchor each
selector to a complete _-delimited field (*"_${token}_"*). Empty selectors are
still skipped and the sequential board->release->branch narrowing is unchanged.

./compile.sh flashwas broken in two ways, both ending with the command reporting success while writing nothing.1. The image is never found
The lookup built one glob from
BOARD,RELEASEandBRANCHtogether. With none set it collapses to*__*.img, which matches no Armbian image — they use single underscores (rootfs-to-image.sh:19). Partially specified invocations broke too:BOARD=x BRANCH=edgewith noRELEASEgave*X__edge*.img.Now: list
output/imagesnewest-first, then narrow by whichever selectors were actually given. Each selector is matched as a complete_-delimited field, so a short one likesidoredgecan't match inside another field.2. With the image found, it flashes nowhere
write_image_to_deviceguards the write withlsblk "${device}", and its in-container fallback with[[ -n ${device} ]]. WithCARD_DEVICEunset both branches fall through silently — the command announces the image, counts down, and exits 0 having written nothing.Now validated up front, before the countdown, naming what to pass. A
