I've installed Android 7.1 - could not get neither bluetooth, nor wifi USB dongles working. Installed Linux UBUNTU, managed to get bluetooth and one of the Wifi dongles working, but perfomance of whole system is on level of pentium 1 1980year of manufactury - even can not play youtube video at 1080P smooth.
What is your experience with this SBC? What is the best distributive/OS to run on this board kindly presented through pine installer?
P.S. I bought this board in maximum options (4GB RAM) to build CarPC, however my feelings at the moment - I wasted another 100USD
I ran Community Debian Stretch Mate 0.5.15 found in the Pine64 installer. It ran my usb3 10/100/1000 Ethernet adapter with no issue. I'm now loading up the Minimal image to see how it works.
I did try Android 7.1 with the 1Gb Ram and was able to watch YouTube just fine. It also ran the media center with no issues at all. I'd consider using it maybe for such things. I had issues loading up Chrome to search the internet. However, I didn't have issue with Firefox in Debian. So, I'm not sure what's going on there.
I never planned on running a gui with it . Fully planned to use it with terminal or SSH.
