   Hallo Kees!   
      
    KvE> Kill ssds or the likes on Debian and probably other   
    KvE> distributions, and you have exactly the same.   
      
   The kill part sounds fun.  ;-)   
      
   The last distribution I installed and booted was last year.  It was arch-linux   
   on a raspberrypi 3 and the consoles were not exactly what I would call 'good   
   to go'.  I ended up installing slackwarearm and then doing a 'linux from   
   scratch' from there.  It turned out to be the correct answer despite all the   
   additional hassel.   
      
   This time I am doing a slightly hacked 'cross linux from scratch' using the   
   x86_64-silvermont-linux-gnu to build a toolchain that I will chroot to from a   
   raspberry pi.  Here is the current evidence;   
      
   -={ ':read !file /tools/lib/libc-2.28.so' starts }=-   
   /tools/lib/libc-2.28.so: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, ARM aarch64, version 1   
   (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked, interpreter /tools/lib/ld-linux-aarch64.so.1,   
   for GNU/Linux 3.16.0, with debug_info, not stripped   
   -={ ':read !file /tools/lib/libc-2.28.so' ends }=-   
      
   So far so good.  The next build will be a 32-bit mips just for fun.  I want to   
   see if I can put a chrootable micro-sd drive on the dock of a omega2+ and use   
   that to develop native packages for the boot/root system on there which I'll   
   probably replace once I know that I can.  It'll be sort of a WRT thing except   
   better ... if it works that is.  I already know the aarch-unknown-linux-gnu   
   will work on a raspberry-pi ... or at least it used to.   
      
   Het leven is goed,   
   Maurice
