Not that I have much more than a toothpick to steer this project with as
a builder currently distributing a preempt-rt kernel and a build of
master that runs well on an rpi4b starting from a buster 10.3 raspbian
full install, anything that reduces the lengthy list of extra installed
dependencies in order to build master on the rpi4b without loseing some
functionalities like gscreen and printing a classic ladder graph which
is the current case, would certainly be appreciated.
However, the question then becomes, since I haven't dealt with mint in
several years, (I liked it then) does mint have an iso that installs it
on an rpi4b? What I can see on their download page says its all for x86
and up. No armhf installs are visible.
Does this leave my rpi4b efforts for naught? I'd like to think that JT's
efforts to get us started will not die with me, and while my parts list
is beginning to resemble the 6 million dollar man, its also plain to me
at 85, that I don't have another 20+ years left to support the raspbian
armhf version which will without a doubt drift away from whatever
version you wind up publishing. Its the nature of the beast that is an
OS anybody can play with.
