Mobian for x86_64 - paju1986 - 10-13-2020

Hi.

I would like to ask if it is possible to have x86_64 builds of Mobian. 
I have a gpd win 2 with a 6inch touch screen and would be nice to have phosh on it, there is also multiple x86_64 tablets out there that will benefit from it too.


Regards!

Technically, it's already possible yes, as long as you build the image yourself: get the debos recipes and build using "./build.sh -t amd64"

On the GPD, as it's more or less a standard PC with well-supported hardware (from what I know), I'd rather suggest you install Debian (testing) on it, and then enable Mobian repos using "extrepo enable mobian" (you'll have to apt install extrepo first, of course). Then, package mobian-phosh should bring in everything you need to run phosh on your device Smile
