Pine64 can run Ubuntu Server Arm, Ubuntu 15.10
#12

There is exactly one kernel available for the A64: A heavily patched 3.10.65 from Allwinner. And you will be surprised that everything that's really relevant for an ARM device to operate as an SBC does NOT depend on the contents of the rootfs.

I just walked through the SDK and had a laugh: http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic...#entry3173

If the Pine guys don't get this resolved rather sooner than later the 'linux experience' will be a bit crappy in the beginning  Smile
