First ARMbian boot sequence on RK3588 based Radxa Rock5b (blob 5.10 kernel)

This is the default boot on the Radxa Rock5b (Rockchip RK3588 SoC) with ARMbian 22.04 Gnome, (12 2022). The included kernel 5.10.110-rockchip-rk3588 does not have HDMI output on my board (recent revision 1.42), need to downgrade to blob 5.10.72. But the board was mainlined in kernel-next this week most of the SoC was included in 6.2 (currently rc3).

I disconnected by error the USB on the recording host, but cast continue until the end. The ARMbian-config tool is not displayed correctly, so I will continue this part on another cast.
