Beagle-V Ahead (lemmy.world)

Hi

Does anyone have a Beagle-V?

Does it come with a pre-installed OS?

Is there a Debian image for it??

TIA

Thanks for this : you have a piece of significant tech history, I think. I'm really quite envious!

But I was asking about the new board... Fossicking around on the net a bit, I gather there's Ubuntu and Yocto available for it. Do you think the Debian image for the Lichee Pi would boot on it too?

Hmm, I think the Lichee Pi image is almost guaranteed not to run on the BeagleV-Next, unfortunately. If you feel like creating a Frankenstein distro, I suppose you could leverage an existing/bootable kernel, etc, and swap out the rootfs with vanilla Debian.

I personally would expect Beagleboard to support Debian out-of-the-box, but it's still a recent release, so time will tell. RobertCNelson usually curates the Debian distros. Maybe it's worth reaching out to him on Beagleboard's Discourse forum or (Slack or Discord, I haven't kept up with it lately).

Thank you. Very informative.
