What was the reason for the custom kernel?  My post above re: script.bin
is wrong. Trying to introduce the script.bin at that stage of the
installer script would fail as the installer system is still running in
busybox, plus I left the fex conversion out. This seems to be the right
palce, at a round line 165: 


Code:
--------------------
    
  pushd /boot
  cp script.bin script.bin.orig
  bin2fex script.bin > script.fex
  sed -i -e "/screen0_output_type/c screen0_output_type = 3" script.fex
  sed -i -e "/screen0_output_mode/c screen0_output_mode = 10" script.fex
  sed -i -e "/fb0_width/c fb0_width = 1920" script.fex
  sed -i -e "/fb0_height/c fb0_height = 1080" script.fex
  fex2bin script.fex > script.bin
  popd
  
--------------------


change to:


Code:
--------------------
    
  pushd /boot
  cp script.bin script.bin.orig
  wget 
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cubieboard/cubie_configs/master/sysconfig/linux/cubietruck.fex
  mv cubietruck.fex script.fex
  sed -i -e "/screen0_output_type/c screen0_output_type = 3" script.fex
  sed -i -e "/screen0_output_mode/c screen0_output_mode = 10" script.fex
  sed -i -e "/fb0_width/c fb0_width = 1920" script.fex
  sed -i -e "/fb0_height/c fb0_height = 1080" script.fex
  fex2bin script.fex > script.bin
  popd

Triode did give his reasons for using Arch Linux at the beginning of
this project. There are pros and cons for any distro. I mostly use
debian.
