I think by the time of the F21 release it will be possible. Right now, there are a whole heap of issues, and while most can be dealt with.... Right now, stock F20 ARM image... To do anything useful with that, even get past the initial setup screen on Wandboard and create a user account, need a serial cable, or modify the image before you boot it. Could connect a USB keyboard, but you'd be using that blind. I know for sure that the kernel that shipped with the stock F20 didn't have the hdmi driver.... So now user needs to be told to purchase a null modem cable, connect to his PC, run terminal emulator...... Follow these instructions to get through the inital setup screen..... Not a simple setup for a "newbie"... Not plug in SDCARD, power it up and off you go, and configure squeezelite from the web gui. ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JackOfAll's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3069 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99395 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
