Anyone got a decent up to date Linux install?

I’ve been trying to locate a decent current up to date document that will help me install whatever 64 bit linux flavor on this 96boards with some 3d gfx support, and all I can say is wow! The official 96boards/hikey website only mentions AOSP, most of the other linux pages I could find have obsolete links…

Up until now, what I’ve downloaded:
SOURCE=http://builds.96boards.org/releases/reference-platform/debian/hikey/16.06/
wget $SOURCE/bootloader/ptable-linux-8g.img
wget $SOURCE/hikey-rootfs-debian-jessie-alip-20160629-120.emmc.img.gz
wget $SOURCE/16.06/hikey-boot-linux-20160629-120.uefi.img.gz
wget $SOURCE/16.06/hikey-debian-jessie-alip-sdcard-20160629-120.img.gz

for f in *.img.gz ; do gunzip $f; done

Then, with the GPIO switch on (auto pwr is also on)

fastboot flash ptable bootloader/ptable-linux-8g.img
fastboot reboot && sleep 5
fastboot flash boot hikey-boot-linux-20160629-120.uefi.img
fastboot flash system hikey-rootfs-debian-jessie-alip-20160629-120.emmc.img

sudo dd if=hikey-debian-jessie-alip-sdcard-20160629-120.img of=/dev/sdc bs=4M oflag=sync status=noxfer && sync && sync

power off the board, put the sdcard, in the system. This last step is not described, so I’m not sure it’s really necessary
Moved the GPIO switch back to off.
But when I reboot, I only go back to fastboot. Here’s the log, if it makes sense to anyone

Anyone, please have mercy of me

HEre’s the log I have through the UART

AFAIK there is no documentation for this at present. The best write up I know of is this post (unfortunately I also know some people have reported problems following it):

I should probably also mention that no build, other than the AOSP images, currently offers any 3D GFX support. The drivers to support this have not been released yet.

That’s all right if it’s not released yet. But I saw some mali drivers out there, and expect those, at some point (hopefully in a near future), to become available.
I was under the impression that the debian distro would support the GPU since it has some kind of legal agreement that you have to click through to be able to download the image.
Or am I completely mistaken?
In this case, what 96board or any aarch64 board would you recommend that has some kind of 3D gfx support running Linux (any)?

Not completely :wink: but I think you are confusing the Hikey (retrospectively renamed the Hikey620) and the Hikey960. The debian release you are looking at does support accelerated 3D graphics but is for the Hikey rather than Hikey960.

The Hikey960 has a newer GPU but drivers for this are not released at this point. I know they are being worked on, but there are no firm dates for when we will receive drivers (and when we do they will be binary only). Even when they are released they will likely be integrated into OpenEmbedded rather than regular a Linux distro. OpenEmbedded is a toolkit to build custom Linux distros for embedded devices; it is hugely powerful and great for building appliances but it also has a fairly step learning curve.

The Hikey620 Debian images have accelerated graphics support but this is limited to OpenGL ES (the OpenGL subset found in phones) and does not support all Debian 3D applications (many of which require full OpenGL).

The Dragonboard410C has excellent graphics support, both in the Linaro supported Debian images and in the upstream focused Linux distros such as Fedora. This is mostly thanks to a reverse engineering effort led by Rob Clark, as a result this device has an open source 3D graphics driver that is easy to integrate into any Linux distro. Additionally, although the DB410C hardware was only designed to support OpenGL ES, the open source driver emulates additional OpenGL features allowing much more of the existing corpus of software to run.
