I believe no one did.

FreedomBox Foundation collects donations from people on behalf of the
project. I think active exploration for funding is not happening.

Two of us (Joseph and I) are sponsored by ThoughtWorks. Apart from that,
more donations can go to causes like the village internet project here
in India, bounties, outreach and funding for developers.

I believe the foundation could use help in fund raising activities. I
would encourage interested volunteers to get in touch with the
Foundation too.

Currently, there are no reports of people installing on eMMC for
BeagleBone Black Revision C. IIRC, quite some time ago, the kernel
didn't support installing on eMMC.

If you give it a try and it works, do write about it.  We can prepare
instructions for eMMC installation or prepare a separate image if necessary.

Thanks,

Did a person from the freedombox.org respond on the email?

Does a group of persons do an organized fundraising?
Explore relevant places for getting funds? Contacts them?

If there is no such group, one should get formed.
Would more money to the freedombox
not be beneficial for it?

[Freedombox-discuss] what about a freedombox image for beaglebone black revision c emmc?

2018-03-14 Thread ni nhar
beaglebone black revision c has an emmc chip.
I asked for instruction on how to install the freedombox on the emmc.
Got no answer.
Should'nt there be a freedombox image for installing
on the emmc? You should make
one if the freedombox installed on the emmc
is much faster than the freedombox
installed on a sdcard.
Thank you.
