Armbian Image for Kernel 4.4

[himanshubhavani]

Hi Team,

 

I want to build or get pre-built armbian image for kernel 4.4 with wifi : rtl8723as enabled.

 

Please help or provide any suggestion to build armbian image for rockpi-e.

 

Any help or suggestion will be appriciated.

There is no official Armbian builds with 4.4 kernel for rockpi-e. But rockpi-s has legacy kernel configured as 4.4. I believe you can compare their configurations and prepare the build yourself. Here are some files that you might want to look at

config/boards/rockpi-s.conf

config/boards/rockpi-e.conf

config/sources/families/rockpis.conf 

 

And if you are not familiar with creating the builds yourself than see - https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/

HI @Gunjan Gupta, 

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

I would also like to know if we have rtl8723as enabled in any of the kernel version in armbian build.

 

If you have any suggestions or guidance how to enable the wifi rtl8723as that would be a great help.

Hi @Gunjan Gupta

For rk3328 SoC do you suggest any build having :

1. GPU support
2. Weston support
3. VPU support
 

Any build version with any kernel for board having rk3328 SoC (rock-pi-e, rock64,etc.).
