Release of A20_SDK_V2.9.4

~ tjohann ~ Hinterlasse einen Kommentar

Hi@all,

the release of A20_SDK_V2.9.4 happened … Don’t forget to do a make mrproper && make init_sdk … also do a make get_toolchain … it is updated to the latest void-linux versions.

Note, that i deprecate some devices, namely Nanopi, Bananapi-Pro and the Olimex. The reason is, that they have contact looses and/or already died.

Also Note, that there`s no base and full image anymore, but not all scripts are fully migrated. As a workaround i would suggest to name the rootfs tarball you want (for example a20_sdk_musl_rootfs.tgz) to a20_sdk_rootfs.tgz and then use a20_sdk_make_sdcard.sh as always. This will be fixed with the next release!

Cheers
Thorsten

Toolchain update

~ tjohann ~ Hinterlasse einen Kommentar

There`s an updated version for the a20_sdk toolchain available (see https://sourceforge.net/projects/a20devices/files/). It reflects the latest void-linux (https://voidlinux.org/) changes. This is the first step for the upcoming next release A20_SDK_V2.9.4.

It will be also the first release of the migration path from only glibc based images to glibc and musl images. With A20_SDK_V2.9.5, the split of base and full image will be removed (see also https://tjohann.wordpress.com/2020/11/16/rework-on-a20_sdk-images/)

So stay tuned … a lot of new cool stuff will come 🙂

Cheers

Rework on A20_SDK images

~ tjohann ~ Hinterlasse einen Kommentar

I will rework the actual images to support also musl as an image. The plan is to remove the full images and make the base image to a glibc image. Then add a new musl based image. In the end i will support 2 different libc.

Convert images (from to)

Full Image -> remove

Base Image -> glibc

The new Image -> musl

The change will happen during the next weeks. So with A20_SDK_V2.9.4 the conversion will start.

Cheers
