Just got a c630 and trying to get linux installed. I was able to use one of your old eaon images to boot from USB but so far thats as far as I've gotten. All of the installer images referenced here are gone: https://pskov.surgut.co.uk/bionic/daily-live/current/ . Does anyone have backups or a mirror?

Have the main patches made it into mainline 5.10 yet or am I stuck using 5.2? Currently trying to use the scripts here to compile a groovy image with the latest linux kernel so will see how it goes. Thanks!

I'll recommend swinging by #aarch64-laptops on irc.freenode.net to keep up with things - this repo doesn't seem to update often, but the IRC is generally reasonably active. Some out-of-tree patches are definitely still required (I tracked as recently as 5.7.9 in my Gentoo overlay, but I know 5.9 and 5.10 patchsets do exist. @steev has a 5.9 tree at https://github.com/steev/linux-1/tree/c630-5.9, for example)

Alternatively, use the debian installer at https://github.com/aarch64-laptops/debian-cdimage

Awesome! Thanks for the quick responses guys. I will give the debian installer a shot. My goal is to get Arch running eventually
