Basically I need to pour through the different arm repo's and puzzle what I can for NXP/Freescale i.MX8MQ with 4x ARM Cortex-A53 cores (1.5 GHz), 1x Cortex-M4F core. not familiar with paqfs. So that was interesting but I could comment all that out. This is an MNT reform laptop. After putting it together it seems pretty stable and I'm interest in porting plan9 to this thing. I expect I might need to dig into the ARM® Cortex®-A53 MPCore Processor Revision: r0p3 and try to figure this thing out. But before I do this has anyone made any headway in this area? I'm enjoying the laptop. The keyboard is a bit funky the mapping is different but all in all its enjoyable laptop and a bit sturdy. Recommendations greatly welcomed. Regards, -Will
