I just confirmed that we're 4 weeks out for 2GB boards. If it helps, we can provide a SABRE Lite to whomever will work on getting a build structure together in the interim.
Oh wow, didn't notice there was an upgrade listed there! In that case, I would vote in favour of your offer! I would expect the Nitrogen boards to be amongst the best in mainline support as they're around the longest.
I can only promise that we'll try. We do tend to spend most of our time tweaking older Freescale kernels, but that's rapidly changing. The Freescale teams have put significant effort into moving things forward.
So, how many boards would you be willing to offer? My original suggestion was for 3 odroids + 1 spare in each location, so 5 total, I didn't see any comment about that so far. I guess 3 nitrogen6x +2 spare would also work (+RAM upgrades, which I hope you have readily available!). I'll have to complete the wiki page with the comparison matrix and send back to the list. Even if I personally like this option, I'd still like for a consensus to be reached amongst the developers/porters.
Five is no problem, and we'll try to make sure we have some extra 2GiB boards in this next build ;)
But nevertheless thank you for the nice offer!
You're more than welcome. We're happy for an opportunity to help in a tangible way. Regards, Eric -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected] Archive: http://lists.debian.org/[email protected]
