zador.blood.stained Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 S500 devices (LeMaker Guitar and RoseApple Pi) are the only devices without initrd/UUID support, both are EOS and have only 3.10.y EOL kernel source. I propose creating a tag in the build script and deleting their configuration files along with the code that deals with non-UUID root cases to simplify our code base for upcoming LUKS rootfs encryption support. Any thoughts/objections? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyMac32 Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 As long as we control the kernel so it doesn't get modified and break compilation at the tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't control the kernel repository, but it is 3.10 (no upstream patches anymore) and the last commit here was at 13 Oct 2016, so IMO it's pretty safe to say that this source is not maintained.

Igor Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Yes, we can drop this completely. One small note to the download page that it's still probably possible to build when setting a build script tag to "s500" or whatever will be used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
