I have tried installing android 5.1.1, remix os, and arch linux (all listed on the wiki page), but had no luck. I understand that these state they are tried/require the 1gb model, but I am very eager to get started with my pine. Are there any operating systems the pine 64 512mb model can run? Thanks!
As mentioned on KS page and also FAQ, Android, including Remix, not suitable for Pine A64 512MB board. The best OS for Pine A64 board is ArchLinux.
Looks like Arch Linux for Pine has been discontinued. I downloded a xubuntu minimal version from the same developer and it doesn't boot, installed Debian and it's so slow that I am considering whether my Commodore 64 is a better option. All the other OSes are for 1GB according with the Pine official page. I tested a few of them and in fact they don't seem to work. Any suggestion? Should I use my long waited Pine A64 board to play frisbee?
