Not too sure if the progress on cubie4 has completely stopped but spoke with one of the guys that has contributed a lot of the Merrii optimus board (A80) code who indicated as much. I'll try and dig up some more information when I get back to the uk.
Yes, firing up some arm A53s running mirage would be a great demonstrator. I'll look around for a suitable board. --- Original Message --- From: "Anil Madhavapeddy" <[email protected]> Sent: 27 August 2015 1:26 pm To: "Nick Betteridge" <[email protected]> Cc: "Richard Mortier" <[email protected]>, [email protected] Subject: Re: [MirageOS-devel] Recommended device for MirageOS Do you mean that the upstream progress of the Cubie4 has stopped? That's not a good sign -- although the 64 bit v8 architecture in the next rev is very exciting indeed! OCaml trunk has a native code generator for it, which works well enough in my qemu testing so far, so Mirage itself shouldn't be very difficult to get running. -a > On 27 Aug 2015, at 07:01, Nick Betteridge <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Definitely recommend the Cubieboard2 or Cubietruck. > > I think that the sunxi development of cubieboard4 has dried up even though > it's marked to be included in the next release.
