Hello all, we are going on. We have published another RC2: http://resources.crux-arm.nu/files/devel-test/3.2/crux-arm-crossrootfs-3.2-… http://resources.crux-arm.nu/files/devel-test/3.2/crux-arm-crossrootfs-3.2-… We have deleted ports port (it has perl dependency) since it isn't needed at cross time. We have fixed some bugs too: - pkgutils problem creating file with UID/GID = 0/0 using sudo: - All ports are rebuilt in the right order. Feel free to test and provide any problems found.

Our builds are tested and currently we are using cubieboard2 as main build machine. You need to know which CFLAGS you are using... How you are building your system.. Take a look to ports/cubieboard2-arm collection and pkgutils overlay, where you'll see which ones we are using in CRUX-ARM. > /mc Regards, Victor Martinez Learning bit by bit | http://vjml.es

Which CFLAGS are you using? Disabling ffmpeg shouldn't affect.

BTW - cubieboard 2 NAND issue and solution
by matti christensen 11 Nov '15

11 Nov '15

Hello as usually i have been reading of cubieboard 2 as it is new system for me. i found some talks about an issue of NAND corruption when using Linux out of sd card - and some really funny correction suggestions to that ( like instructions to reinstall android to nand, etc. ) as i built my u-boot-sunxi / linux-sunxi-3.4.n / CRUX 3.1 -based system on sd card and begun building x.org on it, i stumbled on the issue of corrupted nand = sd card based Linux did not boot after nand corrupted ( which may have happened as i tried to start x.org with udev enabled and kernel having nand support in it )... my solution to this was to build linux-sunxi-3.4.n kernel without nand support - and now it does not mind of nand being out of function ( if i some day have some use for the nand, i get back to this of course ) /mc keep-IT-simple

Hello i just bought this - http://www.orangepi.org/orangepipc/ - as it was really cheap... playing w cubieboard 2 and studying orange pi pc - i must say that support ( kernel source, u-boot source, ... ) for these is really poor = there are several private source trees in various git reposities, and no knowledge of their activity, support .... would like to have opinions, hints of working kernel source archives, comments ... /mc keep-IT-simple
