marverix Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Hello, In my work I have 3 or 4 old PanaBoard-ES's which are waiting for purpose to live. https://eu.mouser.com/new/pandaboardorg/pandaboardES/ Is there any way that I can somehow install armbian? I don't want windows and stuff - mainly I'm interested to use it as some kind of servers (i.e. play with Home Assistant). Could someone show me the way? Where to start?

richardk Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Not simple, but here you go: https://www.digikey.com/eewiki/display/linuxonarm/PandaBoard Build a modern distro and linux kernel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardk Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Oh, by the way - dual Cortex A9s (SMP) and dual Cortex M3s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So building images built by armbians buildscript doesn't look that hard. Getting them officially into our build-script on the other hand will be harder (we try to reduce workload - there must be good reasons for a new soc family).
