A very encouraging discussion. But when I see the timestamp. OMG. What hope can I have here?
I bought two rock64, 1G & 4G.
The 1G one is now serving as a NAS (both nfs and samba). I used ayufan's stretch minimal image (5.15-136) and everything works fine in first trial. The only hiccup I encountered was on apparmor, which looked like to me a kernel issue.
On the 4G one, I plugged an Atheros AR9271 network card. "lsusb" can recognize it, "ip a" does not, "zcat /proc/config.gz" confirms it is a kernel issue.
So, "compiling kernel" should be something petty normal and standard for rock64 user. To ARM newbie, u_boot is also new, with limited experience on git, a simple kernel compiling job becomes a nightmare!!
I did earn a "big picture" by reading odroid's wiki. I have my kernel compiled (no error prompt), not installed yet, I want to test (need u_boot macro) it first, and I have tons of questions.
I believe I can solve my problems, just very slowly. Hope wiki here will become "not sparse" earlier.
