At first I would need to get the rootfs working on the device. I will look up the kernel sources I used this evening. Don't know nothing about u-boot yet, though. And I did not setup my sdcard at all as I'm using nand voor the kernel and the system as well, but should be fairly trivial I guess.
At least, it could help other people to get openSUSE (or other Linux flavours) on this device.
That would be great, the only stumbling block I found is that wifi is working, which is great, but ethernet not at all. I was hoping to get wifi and ethernet up and running.
I'm using this kernel: https://github.com/phjanderson/Kernel-3188-X7 which seems to be specific for the Neo x7. To flash the kernel to the Neo minix X7mini I had to pad the kernel with a strange character to 16MB. Otherwise the kernel would not boot. I've added the script for that as well. ------------------------------------------- #!/bin/bash if [ $# != 0 ]; then FILE=$1 else FILE='kernel.img' fi SIZE=`dc -e '16 1024 * 1024 * p'` IMG_SIZE=`wc -c < $FILE` CHAR=`echo | xxd | sed 's/0a/ff/' | xxd -r` echo $CHAR DIFF=`dc -e "$SIZE $IMG_SIZE - p"` echo $DIFF; for (( i=0; i<$DIFF; i++ )) do echo -n $CHAR>> $FILE done ------------------------------------------- I've used the linux flash tool to flash to the minix, windows 8 was giving me a hard time...
