The system seems (so far..) to be relatively sluggish compared to my other quad-core armv7 systems.. Compiling on the Pi 2 itself seemed relatively slow, but at least it … Continue reading →
This is a workflow for compilation of a kernel + device tree for the Odroid U3. There are other ways of doing this, but this one works, for me.. Compilation works fine on the device itself, so no need for cross-compilations.. This is for a device with root filesystem and boot partition on one SDcard.. Source from: … Continue reading →
