PINE64

I am a huge supporter of SBC and low-power computing and I've been using a *lot* of Pine64 systems over the years. I used to run A64, original 14" and 12" PineBooks and the 14" PineBook Pro.
I have retired everything but the PineBook Pro, as memory and CPU no longer live up to modern standards.
The original Pinebook Pro is showing its age, too and I blindly ordered a PineTab 2 to replace the PineBook Pro. More RAM always helps.

I do not intend to run the PineTab 2 as a tablet, screen real estate is too small, but I will keep the keyboard always attached, so no special tablet features are needed.

Given the architectural similarities between PineBook Pro and PineTab 2, will the PineBook Pro Manjaro run on the PineTab 2/??

Unless something has changed, it seems that Danknix Arch is the only thing that runs on it so far.

I wish I had time and money to try getting NetBSD working on it.

No, they are very different devices.

Do keep in mind that the PineTab2's CPU is a little weaker than the Pinebook Pro's. The PineTab2 is a replacement for the PineTab1, not the PbP.

I suspect we'll see a true PbP successor once RK3588 mainline support is in better shape.

thanks
