we will likely have optimized builds at least specific for rpi2 and
rpi3. Parazyd's SD image is a good preview for what beta will look
like, while on the mid-long term we are working on a CI that will
targed native builds for all most popular embedded devices.

here my current wishlist:

cubieboard2 efikamx mini-x trimslice riot odroid-w-devkit nanopi2
chromebook-arm-veyron bbb cubox luna rpi-tft odroid-xu odroid-u2
chromebook-arm-exynos banana-pro cubox-i utilite rpi odroid-xu3
odroid-c chromebook-arm-acer banana-pi cubietruck usbarmory rpi2
odroid-w odroid-c2

there is some excellent work on Kali Linux that covers these targets,
integration of their kernel configs and patches in the devuan-sdk has
already started.

ciao

Thanks for your work. I unfortunately can't test ATM because I have
only one rpi2 acting as a router. I plan to get another unit to play
with (possibly a rpi3) in the future. If testing is still necessary by
the time that happens, I will be happy to do so.

My concern here is that packages compiled for armv6 wouldn't take full
advantage of the rpi2 CPU, in the same way that packages compiled for
the rpi2 don't take full advantage of the rpi3 CPU. Is this concern
valid? If yes, then I'm against making such a move, and suggest that
if possible, we stick to separate packages for rpi0/1, rpi2, and
rpi3. I understand this will take extra build cycles and extra
storage, but I personally think that's worth it. Just my $0.01.

[DNG] Raspberry Pi 2 image

[parazyd]

Hi dng!

Devuan Raspberry Pi 2 images are done and ready :)
The image I would like people to test can be found here:
https://parazyd.dyne.org/devuan-jessie-alpha4-armhf-rpi2.img.xz
along with the sha256sum:
https://parazyd.dyne.org/devuan-jessie-alpha4-armhf-rpi2.img.xz.sha

To use, simply extract and dd to a SD card. SSH will start on first
boot, you can login as root with credentials "root:porcoddio"

The raspi-config utility still needs some polishing to work properly on
Devuan, so I would like to propose anyone interested in helping fix it
to clone my devuan-sdk repository, and inside, in the "arm/extra/rpi-conf"
directory, you can find "raspi-config". Feel free to hack on it, and if
you fix things, please make a pull request so I can review it.
https://github.com/parazyd/devuan-sdk

To build your own images, consult the README file inside the arm
directory.

As for the Raspberry Pi 1 and Zero - Devuan's packages should be
compiled for armv6. If it's a possibility, I would recommend (re)building
all armhf packages with armv6 in mind. This way, packages would work
just as fine on *all* Raspberry Pis and other embedded devices.

Cheers!
