@srnka came across this https://sd-card-images.johang.se/boards/libretech_a311d_cc.html. Tested it for fun on an sdcard and got video output. Wondering if it's as simple `cat u-boot.bin alpine.bin > sdcardimage.bin` to get an #alpinelinux image working on the #radxazero2pro #sbc. :)

How would you determine what the max speed #sdcard supported would be for a particular board / #sbc? Is it defined by the #soc or is it another chip? Trying to figure out on the #radxazero2pro https://radxa.com/products/zeros/zero2pro/#techspec

#SingleBoardComputer enthusiasts experienced with booting #Radxa #RadxaZero2Pro with #Amlogic #A311D #SoC? dd the Radxa Debian #linux img to an SDCard, which does boot. The same img file does not appear to boot when dd to USB. Something special need to be done to boot from USB or SDCard? #AlpineLinux appears to have amlogic a311d2 support from https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/contents?file=*amlogic*a311d*.dtb. It's unclear how to get the standard or uboot Alpine tar.gz files to boot. Is this something with #uboot on #armv8/#aarch64?

I have an HP #EliteDesk 705 G3 (4core 3.1-3.8GHz 28nm AMD A12-9800E GB: 656s 1512m) with 16GB RAM. I've been trying to find a smaller, lighter, more power efficient replacement. I was looking at the #Radxa Zero 2 Pro (6core Armv8 1.8-2.2GHz 12nm GB: 375s 1133m) 4GB RAM. Then I remembered I have a Pixel 3a (GB: 367s 1221m) 4GB RAM, and I just got a $99 OnePlus 6T (GB: 524s 1747m) 8GB RAM. So it's hard to justify the #RadxaZero2Pro #SBC just for #AlpineLinux. What would you do in this situation?
