Hi Gordon, All,
Has anybody got RS up and running on the MP30-AR0 with a kernel other
than the one supplied with the board?
I've been trying to get hold of one of these for a while now, but no
Gigabyte distributor in UK has been willing to supply one, and given the
price tag of about €800 I wasn't prepared to take my chances on ordering
one from abroad in case of any future warranty claims which would
involve expensive international shipping.
Have you been able to source one of these in UK?
Having said all that, this is an ARMv8 64-bit board. I am not even sure
off the top of my head if ARMv8 64-bit architecture is ABI compatible
with 32-bit ARM code. If you are looking to try one of these (or a
similar board) out, I would suggest you look at getting it up and
running with CentOS 7 ARMv8 port. When I asked a similar question about
this board there a few months ago, they seemed to think it should work
with their standard ARMv8 image.
Please let us know how you get on, and more importantly, if you manage
to get hold of one of those boards from a supplier in UK (ideally one
that is likely to be around for at least the duration of the warranty
period).
Gordan
