Has any work been done for the BPI-R2? I saw a note that the 4.11
kernel
supports it.
It's based on a MediaTek MT7623N SoC, I don't know where you got
information about it being supported in 4.11 as I don't see any dts
files except the eval board for the SoC.
Before I buy one (I want to work with the LAN multiport), I wish to
know if
I stand a chance getting at least F26 beta working on it.
Buy something else, I don't think we'll support it any time soon,
certainly not in F-26.
In /usr/share/uboot, I am only seeing a Bananapi uboot, not one for
each of
the BPi boards. But in
/boot/dtb-4.11.0-0.rc4.git0.1.fc26.armv7hl/b*
Device trees start with the SoC manufacturer so not B in this case.
Also, since it has sata, can it boot off the sata like the
Cubieboards (put
no partitions and only uboot on mSD).
No idea, I've not seen any sort of MediaTek support in upstream u-boot.
