Well . . . I'm in the middle ( or something ) of compiling Node 4.2.6 from Node.org sources . . . so far so good, but it's been compiling for the last 2-3 hours . . . In the mean time I'm dorking around with the rpi3 that came in today, and seriously considering using it as an armv7 build

Its been running for several hours and has completed four loops, I'll leave it running overnight and follow-up if it prints anything but "OK", However, at this point it doesn't look like this is the problem. Something seems rotten in apt-get land. On Thursday, May 5, 2016 at 10:15:45 AM

FYI. On the my BBB with the 2016-05-01 lxqt testing image I'd not apt-get installed anything. I did: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade There were 5 packages to be upgraded: bb-bonescript-installer-beta c9-core-installer libssl1.0.0 openssl rcnee-access-point The

Re: [beagleboard] Re: debian testing: 2016-05-01

Anyway, yeah I do appreciate it Robert, but that one thing just didn't pan out heh. In the end, I do like to have as small an image as possible, but it only matters to a point. Meaning, I'll try, and perhaps even try too hard to get my image small, but it's not super important once I'm feeling

So I'm, prepping to make my own "production" image; prior to installing a ton of development tools, and figured I'd point a few things out. Most this is for Robert when he gets around to worrying about all this, if it all. But there is nothing stopping anyone else form using this information.
