That sounds like either a hardware instability or a kernel bug. What kernel are you using?

For the record, I tried it on several different pis, 3, and some 2s, even underclocked a 2 a little bit (to 800mhz from 900mhz) to see if maybe it was just unstable, or if the heat might've been getting to it. Got it to go through 1 package before locking up that way. Jacco, you built on a pi, could you perhaps give me some info on how you had yours set up, packages, etc.?

Do you guys have problems with mock locking up on you? Invariably within the first couple of packages, I get complete lockup, no response from numlock, nothing. have to power off the pi3 for 10 seconds before I can get it to come back up. I've left this pi doing stuff for days otherwise, with no lockups, so I figure it's gotta be something to do with mock. Suggestions?

Regarding arm64, I was not aware that CentOS/RHEL had arm64. In that case, I may try them out for my 64 bit Pi sometime. Regarding mock, I did not realize that about rpms getting different results based on extra packages. My attempts at building the whole repo were merely an exercise designed at getting the missing packages, so that if I were to build updates to existing packages, I'd already have the deps installed. But at your advice, I will scrap what I have, and try mock/koji. With mock/koji, do I still need to install packages like I did, or does it require a different method to get those packages? Also, given that I've got some similar concerns about SD wear, I was considering mounting a share from my main server to do the actual builds in. Would that be workable in a chroot env that is getting destroyed and rebuilt all the time?

Yea and no. No In that sense that it will just build a package as mock/rpmbuild. Yes in that sense that it has a feature - "chainbuild". I have not tried it yet. but as I read it, you can define a build task as a chain of builds. In this way you can build dependencies for a package before you (in the end of the chain) build the package. Very neat for build bootstrapping an OS. I don't think it works out the dependency chains itself, though. > 1) I don't think there is any benefit in duplicating their work now that > they have finally caught up with us after 5 years.

Agreed. Let the CentOS guys maintain the 64-bit arm RHEL-based OS and RSEL focus on 32-bit arm OS. I assume there will still be a need for 32 bit arm support for a long time. Yes and no. There is an armv7hl build of CentOS 7. It is running my plex server in a docker container on an CentOS 7 aarch64, so I know it works OK for server tasks at least. The main use cases for RSEL are: 1) If you want to use EL6 on ARM, we are the only option (for all those who detest systemd enough to not upgrade for as long as possible). 2) If you are on pre-ARMv7 hardware, we are the only option for EL6 or EL7. That means all the *Plug hardware (ARMv5), R-Pi 1 (ARMv6), and various NAS-es, e.g. QNAP TS-421 which was until recently my main internet facing server. 3) If you don't feel armv7hl build of CentOS 7 is quite there yet (there are packages missing, and thanks to Jacco we have the only working EL 7.2 where gnome isn't broken. Having said that, I expect the CentOS guys to absorb those changes soon. My main annoyance about soft-float ARM at the moment is closed source video drivers. For example, ARM only provide hard-float Linux Mali drivers (but they provide soft-float Android drivers). And in that boat, Nvidia only provide 32-bit hard-float drivers (but not 32-bit soft-float nor 64-bit ones, and my thread on the Nvidia developer forum requesting 64-bit drviers got deleted). But that's a whole different thread.
