armv7l fails to fetch strata #234

Open q60 opened 2 years ago

q60 commented 2 years ago

i'm unable to proceed to the tutorial. i think it should be cross-platform likewise corresponding hijack scripts, so it won't insist on fetching unavailable strata on different architectures.

I don't think it's feasible to maintain the tutorial's existing quality across all architectures, and I don't want to drop the quality on the more popular architectures. I think the best solution here is to make two changes on architectures which do not support the tutorial:

PLEASE don't drop support for 32bit x86/arm! :'(

No, that's an unrelated issue to this one.

This github issue is about the need to create custom, per-architecture interactive tutorials for every supported architecture. This is a time-consuming ask, as the set of available distros and packages to use as examples differs for each architecture, and for the tutorial to be of value it needs to take the specifics of those into consideration. In principle I'd love to do this, but in practice I don't have the bandwidth to figure this out for every architecture in the foreseeable future, especially when the website documentation is an adequate fall back here.

266 makes no mention of brl tutorial.

PLEASE don't drop support for 32bit x86/arm! :'(

I have no intention of dropping the existing level of support for i686, armv7l, or armv7hl within the foreseeable future. That having been said, I'm not in a position to influence the other other distros in this respect.
