Hi Philippe, Dominig, All,

Would I suggest to evaluate this openhardware board,

https://www.olimex.com/Products/OLinuXino/A20/ [3]

I have one home for DIY
and will be exited to help Tizen:Common working on it..

The interesting point here is that SOC ships ARM mali GPU
which is the same familly as tizen mobile rdpq / rd210

Not to mention, that I met those bulgarian at fosdem 2014,
and they supporting FLOSS communities...

Let me add my hacker friend leon in the loop
who will be at TDC too

Thank you for adding me to the loop. Philippe and I discussed the idea in private email and chats during the past couple of days.

I also support the Philippe's proposition to use A20-OLinuXino because it is open-source hardware development board and once the port is stable it can be easily adapted for other devices with Allwinner processors.

A20-OLinuXino is manufactured by Olimex. Their office is based in my hometown Plovdiv, Bulgaria and I often get dedicated support when I have any hardware issues or questions. Olimex publishes complete schematics for their open-source hardware boards from the OLinuXino series in GitHub: https://github.com/OLIMEX/OLINUXINO

I own a couple of development boards from Olimex and I have successfully booted Tizen IVI 2.0 on them by porting Tizen IVI images for Pandaboard. Their new board A10-OLinuXino-LIME also deserves attention and I plan to buy it in new future but it is less powerful than A20-OLinuXino. So as Philippe state at the moment A20-OLinuXino seems the most appropriate board from the Olimex product catalog for porting Tizen IVI 3.0.

I would like to provide some useful resources:

* Building Linux Kernel 3.4 and Uboot for A20-OLinuXino: timate-debian-sd-card-for-linux-with-kernel-3-4-for-a20-olinuxino-micro/

* Formatting the SD card for Pandaboard (the process is similar for OLinuXino boards): ki/Tizen_IVI_Getting_Started_Guide_For_PandaBoard#Formatting_the_SD_card

* Tizen-sunxi: https://github.com/leon-anavi/tizen-sunxi

Best regards,
Leon
