X86_64 – ‘Apollo Lake’ SOC System, with a Gotcha..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on July 30, 2017 by RGJuly 30, 2017

After more research, I decided to get one of the Intel ‘Apollo Lake’-based SOC systems, and the one I chose was from Kodlix..     It is functionally identical with another from Beelink, and in fact the Kodlix website shows images of the Beelink version of the device..    I just preferred the Kodlix version, as the case was a … Continue reading →

x86_64 – UP Board – Intel 64-bit, Size of a Pi..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on April 19, 2016 by RGApril 19, 2016

Being the pioneer/masochist type (aka ‘early-adopter’..), I was intrigued by the new Intel Atom x5-Z8350-powered UP Board, and now have one on (pre)order.. Basic info, with too much graphics..  http://www.up-board.org/specifications/ Not much info on their forum, yet, but it does have UEFI, so (speculation!) should boot with good old GRUB..  One thing it does not have is … Continue reading →

ARM / x86_64 – A More Recent Cross-Compiler..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on March 10, 2015 by RGMarch 10, 2015

I had been using the armv7hl-mandriva-linux-gnueabi- cross-compiler, but that gcc version is a bit out-of-date now (version 4.6.1). I found a more recent version, for Fedora, here:  http://rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/fedora/updates/testing/21/x86_64/g/gcc-arm-linux-gnu-4.9.2-3.fc21.x86_64.html Using yum, this will also install binutils-arm-linux-gnu-2.25-3.fc21.x86_64 and cross-gcc-common-4.9.2-3.fc21.noarch and cross-binutils-common-2.25-3.fc21.noarch, to prvide the rest of the cross-compile environment. It should be noted that this is only suitable for … Continue reading →
