Linux Kernal Development - BETA Boards

[tllim]

JFTR: Still nobody managed to get Linux running on A64:

http://linux-sunxi.org/Pine64#BSP
http://irclog.whitequark.org/linux-sunxi...4#15188515;

Considering very few devs actually have the boards yet, that's not surprising. I have no inside info, but it's probably just the 2 cards from an earlier batch pine64 promised sunxi devs. Mine is still sitting in customs.

-p

Should be more than 2, we have already delivered more than 50 developer boards.

I will check out the broken SDK link at wiki page and correct in 24 hours.

Thx, but it's not a broken link. I tried to uncompress your lichee_linux_310.tar.gz (tar xzf) but get errors even in this early stage. Using shasum I get 0022016ef33fd520a1f48d266bb4f3011899a518 for lichee_linux_310.tar.gz when downloaded from Google drive. Can you please confirm this is correct?

That particular issue with the arm boot protocol is just one of many that will prevent you from booting a mainline kernel.

Ah, I missed that they're talking about mainline kernel. I thought they try to combine the BSP's u-boot+kernel with a Linux userland...

We have try and uncompressed correctly. However, we will check out again. Please make sure that you uncompress under Linux environment, not under Windows environment.
