Topic: Single board computer for Hyperbola

Hi all . I would like to continue the topic Throgh => https://forums.hyperbola.info/viewtopic.php?id=143 regarding single-board computer computers.

Throgh please write in more detail (if possible) what board did you use to install ?

Maybe something in this regard https://www.okdo.com/getting-started/ge … ck-5b-sbc/ (when there is time) Is it 32 or 64 bit architecture?

Some useful links:

Re: Single board computer for Hyperbola

I think they would be willing to, but under one condition specifically:

They need way more donations.

If there is a second condition, they would also need said architecture hardware and if there is a third, to hire someone to develop HyperbolaBSD for said architecture. Unless you or someone on here is willing to do it for free. wink

Re: Single board computer for Hyperbola

We do not need only donations but also hardware for working on and besides all: Cross-compiling later on for packages is also a point. So it is not that easy to manage. Neither ARM (ARM64) nor RISC-V are working that way and easy. And it is an illusion to state it would be possible with money alone.We need helping hands, hardware and more. So I will close this thread here: Discussions do not solve those points.

Instead there are multiple ways to help, like for example here or also here.

Human being in favor with clear principles and so also for freedom in soft- and hardware!

Certainly anyone who has the power to make you believe absurdities has the power to make you commit injustices: For a life of every being full with peace and kindness, including diversity and freedom. Capitalism is destroying our minds, the planet itself and the universe in the end!
