Development Image Pre-release
Pre-release

NOTE : This is merely a prove of concept mageia aarch64 run's on Single Board Computers


Mageia-RPI4-*
It is named RPI4, actually it also runs on a Raspberry PI 3 plus and probably on a an a regular RPI3 too...
Planning to use it on a Raspberry PI 4, and will not test on 3(+)

And from my experience so far pretty stable


Mageia-Uboot aarch64-*
It boot through grub2-efi, this needs a bit more TLC;
However if you put your flashed sd card in a Raspberry PI3(+) it boots the default
magiea cauldron aarch64 desktop kernel. :)

Only for hardcore arm-SBC lovers

Changes in DEVEL2:

  • Uboot without distro specific patches:
  • It loads /EFI/BOOT/BOOTAA64.EFI
  • dtb's live on (fat) efi partition


Mageia-Uboot armv7hl-*
Because the default mageia armv7hl kernel misses the efi-sub, it boots more traditional with extlinux.
Tested on (hmm... boots ) a rpi3+ and OrangePI plus 2E.

POC efi-boot armv7hl Pre-release
Pre-release

NOTE: this pre-release might be short-lived as it is just a prove of concept

  • It runs a test kernel build with the efi-stub enabled;
  • It has an (close to upstream) minimal grub2, can not get it up with grub2 of the main repository's;
  • It has Raspberry PI's bcm28XX firmware and uboot for RPI{2,3,3+} pre installed; just flash and boot;
  • It proved to boot an OrgangePI plus 2E too ;)

All custom build packages are included in local repository found in /home/repository/mageia

Changes POC > POC2:

  • Grub2 console menu looks a bit better, although it still misses the "arrow up/down" characters.( .. beats me)
  • Included a bunch of pre-compiled Uboot-images for AllWinner based SBC's (see UBOOT.md for flashing Uboot)
