Gene, I just learned this the other day. Try uname -m. It should show the architecture that it is running on. I have a D525MW that I usually use to cross compile for ARM. Alan On Sat, Mar 9, 2019, 12:35 AM Gene Heskett wrote: > On Friday 08 March 2019 23:21:28 you wrote: > > > Gene, > > > > I

Gene, I know the rpi 3b+ is a 64 bit processor, but I understand that it also runs the 32bit software. So, my question is this, are you running 32bit OS or 64bit? I am looking at various preempt rt kernels for the rpi. Some kernels are up as far as 4.14.74 preempt rt for the 32bit mode. The
