Armbian for HiSilicon Hi3798mv300

[Gary W]

Hi all,

 

I'm wondering if there is any armbian resources for this chip? I got thousands of Hi3798mv300 / Hi3798mv310 chips from my uncle who is recycling hardware devices from some factories.

If I can activate all of them. I will be able to build a real cluster in my farm for many upcoming MPP test.

 

Thanks,
Gary Willmes

Never heard from this chip.

Fist of all, you should have a source for building the firmware and the kernel. At this time there seems to be no mainline kernel support for this particular chip (https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/arch/arm64/boot/dts/hisilicon).

This IC manufactured by Huawei is mainly used for Android TV Boxes, one of my TVs is using it.

I'm afraid you couldn't. This chip has built-in security features, the boot ROM code will check the signature of the bootloader. Third party software could not be loaded. You can find some relevant information on the Internet.
