Thanks for your work !
Sorry, but i might have a few stupid questions…
<edit>indeed they were ! I found plenty of good informations on your FAQ, in the arch style we like
I replace my old kernel with yours and everything works like a charm, so i updated with all your packages and it's fine. If i install a SSDNVMe drive one of these days i would also try tow-boot. I would try it before if there are good reasons you would give. Thanks for everything !<edit>
I run an ALARM distro on my pinebook-pro that i made more than a year ago from a manjaro system following the «arch way» : i think i created and mounted the desired partition and then pacman some packages from the alarm repo and the specific ones for the pbp from a repo that was called simulated-earth. Helas, this repo died very soon and i havent updated my kernel, neither u-boot for a year ! (I do have the bluetooth security bug…). I sometimes tried nadia's kernel but it breaks the usb-c hdmi output that works the whole time with this pretty old kernel. I'd like to try yours, and i was searching for the archive of the package but could not find it (just the PKGBUILD).
Do you host such a .tar file that i could pacman -U ? (i guess with a slight modification of the extlinux.conf file ?)
Or can you give the address of your repo that i could add to my pacman.conf ? (i could not find it too…)
<edit>ok, i have found it, i'm gonna try to install your kernel. Btw, what does the «post-install» package do, cause pacman wants to update mine from april 2020 with yours, but i fear that it could break something… ?<edit>
I always complain about the boot process of this ARM devices that i dont master at all and regret we cant chose different kernels at boot (so that i could try different ones…). Is this possible with tow-boot ? I have seen you maintain both a u-boot PKGBUILD and a tow-boot one. If i could install your packages, would i just have to dd the right files to the right places or would it be more complicated ?
Bref, i'd like to migrate to your solution but i fear to break everything that work pretty well so far…
<edit>Sorry, many informations where in your GIT FAQ…<edit>
(In the meantime, i could try your image on an SDcard…)
Thanks again for your work, and, I hope, for your answer
