bearbles2 Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Hi, since i have a Asus tinkerboard incoming i was wondering if anyone knows if the "generic" arm64 distro will work this board. Its based of the rockchip RK3288 SoC The support pages states that the board supports debian, but since i dont need a UI ect (im going to use it headless) i dont need the board to load a ui into memory and wanted to use a normal build instead of the TinkerOS Please note, my knowledge of the inner workings of *nix is quite limited, so if my question is to generic or imprecise i apologize. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its based of the rockchip RK3288 SoC No, generic distros won't just work and since you have Armbian https://docs.armbian.com/#what-is-armbian this would be stupid. Generic distro is not near to Armbian. Diff is measured literally in years. And generic distro usually have absolutely no support and no know-how about the hardware. And Tinkerboard is armhf not arm64. 21 hours ago, bearbles2 said: im going to use it headless https://www.armbian.com/tinkerboard/ Search for "server" image and make sure to scan https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
