Which OS will you install into your Pine 64? - 7777777 - 03-03-2016
Remix OS is on the way to be created and may be ready soon, one admin said
I feel like installing this Remix OS for a multimedia-like PC to view streaming and so on
However I believe Remix OS will be more resources-greedy than linux distros for example...
Anyways, which OS will you install, and if you want briefly explain why, thanks

You missed Android off your poll list.
I will have three micro sd cards - one for Android, one for Linux and one for RemixOS

I think Windows 8 RT could be also compatible? (can't edit poll)and why don't you make a simple bigger microSD with multiboot? hard to install maybe?

Multiboot is not setup yet, so it is easier (at first, at least), to use separate cards.
Windows 8 RT seems unlikely.
Thanks for making this poll

I already ordered 2 Pine64+ with 2 GB RAM.
One of them will I use for desktop pc with RemixOS or Ubuntu (maybe dualboot?) and the other one for a tablet with Android.

Some kind of Ubuntu flavour.

1) Remix OS - just to try it out
2) Linux - if it works well, then most likely this will be the primary OS.
Possible uses: online learning for my girl, Youtube (educational stuff), media center for movie nights and lastly to run game emulators for those nostalgic games!
3) Android - to experience Android on a TV. Most likely to use is as a Kindle reader / Google play store interface. (Maybe Remix OS will end up replacing this option, who knows?)
Will be using separate cards for each OS. Partly also to store their own apps / files and find them easily.
And the Pine should be permanently hooked to my TV I guess.

Missing Android in the list.
I intend to install Android.

I will probably use this box for my media center with a PVR function. Here is how I use my Remix Mini for my DVR.
