I would advise to buy an open source device such as beaglebone not a closed source RPI, bb also has higher performance options and is a better company. I was not at all pleased with the transfer speed of an RPI I tried out, the low end arm stuff is garbage (high end like appliedmicro is

Re: [gentoo-user] Gentoo vs Raspbian on Raspberry Pi 3?

Gentoo 64 bit was made working on Raspberry Pi 3 not long ago. I tried Arch for a short time last year. I was really missing those USE flags and ability to lock/select software version. Also when I was using Arch, I always felt that it was pushing me hard to upgrade my system, which really feels

Re: [gentoo-user] Gentoo vs Raspbian on Raspberry Pi 3?

The next time I use Gentoo I am planning have my build directoy on seperate storage. I know I can cross compile, but building natively did not take as long as you might think. If you are looking for similicty then try Arch. On Mon, Jun 26, 2017 at 1:58 AM, Herminio Hernandez, Jr. <

Re: [gentoo-user] Gentoo vs Raspbian on Raspberry Pi 3?

Well right now I am running Arch on my Pi mostly b/c when I was running Gentoo I was compiling natiavly. Arch has the benefit of running a minimal install and you can basically build from there. I had some issues running Gentoo, but that was mostly b/c I was building nativaly on the SD card. On

Re: [gentoo-user] Gentoo vs Raspbian on Raspberry Pi 3?

Any reasons? I want to hear some ideas to make the decision ;-) Seriously, I do not think it is a good idea to compile using Raspberry Pi because of the weak CPU. I prefer to cross compile on my PC when using Gentoo. On 2017-06-26 08:47, Herminio Hernandez, Jr.

Re: [gentoo-user] Gentoo vs Raspbian on Raspberry Pi 3?

I prefer Gentoo or Arch. With Gentoo consider making /var/tmp/portage on USB drive. This way you have your build directory not on the SD card. On Mon, Jun 26, 2017 at 1:41 AM, Danny YUE wrote: > Hi guys, > > I am planning to buy a Raspberry Pi 3 to setup a local network

[gentoo-user] Gentoo vs Raspbian on Raspberry Pi 3?

Hi guys, I am planning to buy a Raspberry Pi 3 to setup a local network storage and try some IoT stuff. Now I am searching for some background things. Which OS do you install on your Raspberry Pi? Gentoo? Raspbian? Or even...arch? This might seems to be the wrong place to ask, but I consider
