RSS Bot Posted February 27, 2023 Posted February 27, 2023 Description Rework of https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/4807 as its not possible to push into the original branch to fix remaining problems and merge. Removed necessary config options: all u-boot configs are custom we avoid FAT boot if possible. This hardware boots from ext4 without problems. Changing to fat will not help in reliability. armbian wireless package have all firmware needed for this hw and for most popular USB dongles. If those wireless drivers firmware would be considered as a bloatware, we should also make very custom kernel and remove all things that are wasteful for this device. We could do that, but what we don't have is - time. build config has been moved to different repository with last major code switch we are not using CODEOWNERS for board config levels and in past two months that we have used this functionality, we only had problems and we will limit it down (nothing to do with this PR anyway) board maintainers guidelines needed that hardware keeps supported status P.S.
