Arne, i think you are mixing up info between the original minnowboard and the minnowboard max. the original minnowboard does ship with a microSd card, and is only a 32-bit UEFI.
for minnowboard max, it does not ship with a microSD card, and ships with a 64-bit UEFI. the main wiki page for minnowboard max can be found here: http://elinux.org/Minnowboard:MinnowMax in addition, there is a dedicated wiki page with instructions for installing your favorite linux distro: http://elinux.org/Minnowboard:MinnowMaxDistros Dave > On October 31, 2014 at 10:21 PM Arne Gollin <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > Hey, > i just got my board today, but I can get it running.
