stretch-minimal-rock64-0.5.10-118-arm64.img that I got the xz of from armbian, which is where the pine site sent me, the rock64 is the newest pine64 variant. $44 with 4GB of ram, and I've a 32GB e-mmc module plugged in too. Don't think its being used yet though. uname reports: Linux rock64 4.4.77-rockchip-ayufan-118 #1 SMP Thu Sep 14 21:59:24 UTC 2017 aarch64 GNU/Linux Compared to the pi, damn its fast, but I'll need to locate a sink for the SoC eventually. None on it now. And none listed at the pine64 store a/o late yesterday. The forum says it shouldn't be too long, they had to locate a new tape that is also a heat bond, most aren't very good at heat transfer. Thanks Alan.
