An Armbian (Xenial 16.04 LTS) image with cpufreq at 864 MHz can be found here: https://transfer.sh/O2q4P/armbian-5.24-pine64-ubuntu-xenial-4.9.0.zip

  • 4.9 kernel based on MoeIcenowy's ice-a64-v6.1 branch
  • Tested on Pine64+ with Gigabit Ethernet (sometimes no connection, needs most probably tx-delay/rx-delay tweaks)
  • USB with UAS works on lower USB port (fast!)
  • SPI works thanks to @martinayotte
  • cpuinfo entries fixed
  • headless of course
  • OS image is fixed in size since btrfs was used (fits on 1 GB SD cards). OS is zlib compressed and rootfs default is lzo (feels snappy even on crappy SD cards!)

1st login with root/1234, you will be immediately asked to change your password and later to create an unprivileged (but sudo enabled) user account. Breaking this will lead to a reboot loop (funny bug Armbian keeps to annoy impatient first time users!)

In case you run into problems please blame the hardware and not software (especially when testing network or USB)

lower USB port

@tkaiser , BTW, the fact that it is on lower port is simply that Icenowy dedicated EHCI and OHCI on each ports.
Normally, on other boards, there are both EHCI/OCHI for each ports.
I didn't wish to bother Icenowy too much if she will do that way soon.

Ah, right. I should've noticed already when looking at lsusb output. So it might already be fixable with just a little DT hack and it was enough to do the only test of importance (now): http://linux-sunxi.org/USB/UAS#UAS_capable_Allwinner_SoCs

Well, she said it's something different: https://irclog.whitequark.org/linux-sunxi/2016-11-24#18257143;

(can't test any more today, busy in the kitchen)
