An installation guide would be great.

Is network boot planned?

[mara]

howto:
1. download all http://dl.fail.pp.ua/slackware/images/rock64/legacy/

      slack-current-aarch64-miniroot_06Mar18-4.4.115-rock64-build-20180311.img.7z

      slack-current-aarch64-xfce_06Mar18-4.4.115-rock64-build-20180311.img.7z

2. flash /dev/mmcblk0 - уour memory card
      dd if=slack-current-aarch64-miniroot_06Mar18-4.4.115-rock64-build-20180311.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M
3. for emmc firmware you need to boot from sdcard
      flash similarly by selecting /dev/mmcblk1
      add to the file /boot/uEnv.txt
      parameter rootdev=/dev/mmcblk1p1
      and fix it in the /etc/fstab file mmcblk0p1 on mmcblk1p1

Is network boot planned?

Thank you.

I can only boot into a black screen. And after I forcefully power off/on my Rock64.
I got the following screen.


Both miniroot and xfce version got the same result.
I guess it's related to my monitor's resolution (Dell U3014, 2560x1600@60). Any suggestion?
