96boards HiKey Arm64

Postby intellitech » Mon Jul 20, 2015 7:46 pm

About a week or two ago, my 96boards Hikey CE SoC arrived. Finally got around to playing around with toolchains today and noticed that this had been pushed up to PKGBUILDs, https://github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUIL ... y/PKGBUILD. I have an armv7 arch-chroot running on the default debian installation it's eMMC comes imaged with, but I'd really like the arm64 support (primary reason I bought this: mongo. oh, mongo :| ).

Anyway, does anybody have a toolchain they'd be willing to share that matches specs with those listed at http://archlinuxarm.org/developers/distcc-cross-compiling? If not, I'm available to be a guinea pig to help test builds or provide other information about the unit..

Cheers

Awesome, can't wait!

I was worried when I didn't see the armv8 builds listed on http://archlinuxarm.org/builder/, lol.
