Hi, If the architecture is aarch64 then most likely you'll need to build from source. In the University of Utah snapshot builds there is an armv6 build, but most likely this won't work, but is worth trying. [https://www.cs.utah.edu/plt/snapshots/](https://www.cs.utah.edu/plt/snapshots/) Whether armv6 binaries work on aarch64 depends on kernel build options and having all the needed 32 bit arm libraries installed. What will not work at all is any x86 build. If the armv6 build does not work download the source plus built packages and untar. Then: cd src/
mkdir build cd build ../configure --prefix=whereyouwantthisinstalled make make install It takes about 600 meg once installed. You probably need a gigabyte free to do the build. Of course you have to have the assorted build tools and libraries installed as well. My builds take about 30-45 minutes or so cheers bruce > What's the result of `file > /home/----user----/racket-tmp-install/bin/racket` and the result of > `uname -a`? > > (In other words, what hardware are you using?
