Re: [Beowulf] recommendations on ARM distro?

Let me backup.. what's your goal?  Fun project using 32bit ARM? ... ARMv8 aka ARM64 aka AArch64? Actual work not using Intel?

Imho a waste of time unless you're just doing a feasibility research project. Lame int, low FP, low core density and what networking ‎is available..

If you're using ARM (on something bigger than a RPi), what distro are you using? I don't have 1st hand experience with the combination you're referencing above, but peanut gallery comments 1) I'd encourage you to retry the default Cavium provided OS - I realize that the package manager may not be fun, but they have thus far been good about software support for our needs 2) Fedora has put quite a bit of effort into their AArch64 distro ------------ I'm happy to connect you to people @ARM or @Cavium which is likely a better support channel for critical software like this. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
