Hi,
has anybody tried getting voidlinux to run on a cubietruck (cubieboard3)?

Due to lack of hardware probably nobody has tried. But I wouldn't expect so 
many changes to make this work.

See void-packages/srcpkgs/cubieboard2-* and srcpkgs/sunxi-kernel.

If somebody has access to the hardware I can help him to add the missing 
pkg bits.

Cheers.

Hi Juan,
since I don't have a void linux x86 system I'd start out with the image for
the cubieboard 2. The cross-compile sunxi bootloader and cubietruck kernel
from the official repos. Does that sound right?

Regards, Mark

 Hmm, I need a toolchain for cross-compiling... ist the archlinux 
crosstool-ng configuration ok to use?

I'm now at a point where it just doesn't work. I'm creating a custom u-boot 
from the sunxi site, but it doesn't boot. Using the custom cubietruck fex, 
the scribt.bin from lubuntu or the cubieboard2 script.bin with any 
combination of u-boot from lubuntu, custom or cubieboard2 flashed always 
results in the same result: the system boots up android from internal 
storge. I'm really at a loss as to how to debug this.

Any help?

Regards, Mark

I used the packed stuff as a guide. You'll have to patch sunxi uboot to 
present the full 2 gb to the kernel. Also I can't get the wifi working 
running the sunxi kernels. This supposedly requires a patch to the system, 
which I applied, which is not working.

I'm a little bit annoyed and thinking about using the mainline kernel. But 
it's working so far. I'll have to dig into runit and the void specifics.

Regards, Mark
