Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Starting a oPi (Orange Pi) / Armbian Port?

[Cradle]

Hi Steen,

first of all: For the fun of it. And for educational purposes.

And the second reason: I like fruit salad... I think raspberries and
oranges can taste good together :)
Although I have two rPis from the very first batch, I am not very fond
of the shortage of the newer smaller rPis, which at last include all
features we once had to add via usb, and for a reasonable price.
Most shops have a "you get only one" policy, if they even have them in
stock.

I have 5 C.H.I.P.S. lying around, some oPis, all were very easy to
source (those CHIPS not any longer). Whereas the rPis are often out of
stock, or being paired with ridiculous shopping costs, or bundled with
(for me) unecessary options.

So I would simply like to try out some alternatives. Those CHIPS would
be very well suited, as well, and they are open source hardware, like
the rPi.

But I don't want to argue, I want to try it simply for the sake of it.

Kind regards,

Arndt

[SlimDevices: Unix] Starting a oPi (Orange Pi) / Armbian Port?

[Cradle]

Hello!

I have just started using piCorePlayer, since one of my Logitech Devices
(Radio) broke down. First use for an old (first batch!) rPi I have had
lying around for ages...

However, I am also experimenting with orange Pi devices quite a lot, and
yould be very interested to port this effort over to those devices (and
also get into linux development again, which I have neglected for about
ten years).

I hope this post reaches the original guys behind piCorePlayer - and I
hope this is not an "offensive" idea...

Helpful would be some information about your build process.

Hope to hear from you,

kind regards,

Arndt
