ROCK64 ayufan's Linux build script

This repository contains a set of scripts to build ROCK64 linux images.

This is community maintained project in my free time. Don't expect everything to be perfect and working. Rather be prepared that there are problems, as always try to fix them and contribute, but if you can't drop the issue here so we can track the progress and resolution of the problem.

Releases

You can always download latest stable release. The releases are meant to be stable versions.

If you want to test bleeding edge features use one of the pre-releases. Use pre-releases only if you want to test bleeding edge features.

Issues

If you have any problems with this build or any of the features do not work, feel free to create a new issue in this repository.

Please include information about the version you are using, a list of connected peripherials and any other details (logs) that can be helpful to understand the root cause of your problems.

Contributing

Feel free to edit any of the files and send a PR to this repository or any in this organization.

Components

It uses a bunch of different repositories:

kernel - patched Rockchip's kernel (4.4),
kernel-mainline - patched mainline kernel (>= 4.13),
u-boot - patched mainline u-boot,
rkbin - precompiled bootloader binary blobs.

Some of the packages are distributed via PPA. The sources of these packages are hosted in this GitHub organization.

This repository is regularly built by Jenkins and released in Releases sections.
