That is good news for people that want to experiment with 10 IoT Core , is there any documentation around what hardware and interfaces are supported by this port, what about thermal/power management?

Any updates on the SDK and the UEFI source code?

[mouse_mike777]

has anyone tried to put a bios onto the sd card so any os can be use from the usb port using a memory stick or a hard drive

[MarkHaysHarris777]

As you can already see, several operating systems are already available for the PineA64; gnu+linux (several flavors, including now Gentoo), Remix, Android, and others. Bios of course does not make sense for the PineA64; however, some are experimenting with UEFI.

gnu+linux supports virtualization; in fact, that is why Simon Eissenmann (longsleep) built the linux kernel for the pine board in the first place. Containers , Docker , work on the pine board , and any number of things might run in a VM.

It is possible to boot to an sdd, hdd, but you must use the SD card to get there. The rootfs then installs on the disk; the SD card points to the disk (I am over-simlifying here).

hope you enjoy your pine board, best of luck to you
