I have the hardware.

Did you try to use the Intel NUC OS image on this hardware?

arafey commented 5 years ago

I will try that today and report on the results.

My initial impression is that it works! I haven't yet looked into all the relevant kernel modules but I suspect this will be a good starting point for making something more specific to this device. My biggest concern is getting the GPU to work because there were issues with the Arch Linux kernel (I suspect it was lacking Vega firmware blobs maybe?).

I couldn't get it to flash properly on an M.2 NVMe drive, although M.2 SATA was fine. It kept causing issues with the partition table and would not properly create EFI entries. There were also some recurring kernel messages that only occurred with the NVMe drive. I still have to do more tests with that.

@arafey did you made any progress on this. I have a udoo bolt and was wondering on how to get the gpu working. Flashing the NIC OS Image worked fine.
