I installed the XFCE version. The system hung repeatedly. The first two times during initial start-up, when resizing the sd card, than later on when the mouse was moved in the XFCE session. I think I tried the Miniroot version, too, that also hung. I tried different sd cards to make sure that was not an issue. I used etcher to install the image.

I used to have a  PC-based slackware router that I wanted to reimplement on the rock64. Unfortunatelly, I had to go with Armbian stretch at the end, because I could not use slackware, but I would like to go back to slackware if possible. How stable/reliable slackware on the rock64? Have you had good feedback? I'll try the next release. When will you have it?

Thanks,

Karl

Please ensure the Micro SD Card is UHS-1 class. If used lower class such as Class 2 Micro SD Card is too slow to use and can get the whole system runs in to low performance or sometimes crash.

This is what I used:
Kingston Canvas Select 16GB microSDHC Class 10 microSD Memory Card UHS-I 80MB/s R Flash Memory Card with Adapter (SDCS/16GB)

I will look at performance over a long period.

while the problem of the correct booting and operation of the system from the SDcard with the eMMC module connected is noticed.
