I just received a Star64 and I have some questions.
I assumed I could power it by USB-C but apparently there is no such port,
and the power supply was not included. On the product info page there is
not a strong emphasis on this detail, and there is no suggestion that I should buy
a power supply with the Star64. It's not a "related product". I feel this is
an oversight. But the question now is, if the only possibly compatible
AC adapter that I have is only 2 amps at 12 V, will that suffice?
Secondly, is there any official support from a major distro that would
be applicable to this board, given that it uses a well known processor?
