So I am trying to boot #FreeBSD on my #LibreComputerAlta featuring an #A311D. I have tried boot only aarch64 image. The SoC supports upstream #uboot. FreeBSD bootloader comes up, some text are corrupted and USB keyboard doesn't work. Anyway it boots into the installer, tries loading kernel then it prints error that these files are not there:

/etc/hostid
/boot/entropy

I'm guessing that the bootloader is supposed to populate these files. Anyway, if you have hints, let me know. I will study about FreeBSD boot process myself after lunch.

PS: I don't want to use FreeBSD on my #SBC. I want to use the GPU and the #NPU and I'm, pretty sure FreeBSD hasn't got support for those. But I want to collect some data and make it public in the case anyone was interested.

PS2: At some point I might be interested in adding driver support to FreeBSD myself, if I could do it with #Rust. The plan would be for the next 1-2 years, God willing.

@hyc the links are both 404 not found for me. Appreciate the names of the devices. I'm curious what your install process was to get #AlpineLinux on these #ARM #RK3588 #SBCs. I've been unsuccessful with #AMLogic #A311D.

Finally I have gotten A311D Processor module to repair my MNT Reform.
Next, I want motherboard v3.0 if I coud get (^-^).

After my #wake_word_detection #research has delievered fruits, I have plans to continue works in the voice domain. I would love if I could train a #TTS model which has #British accent so I would use it to practice.

I was wondering if I could do the inference on #A311D #NPU. However, as I am skimming papers of different models, having inference on A311D with reasonable performance seems unlikely. Even training of these models on my entry level #IntelArc #GPU would be painful.

Maybe I could just finetune an already existing models. I am also thinking about using #GeneticProgramming for some components of these TTS models to see if there will be better inference performance.

There are #FastSpeech2 and #SpeedySpeech which look promising. I wonder how much natural their accents will be. But they would be good starting points.

BTW, if anyone needs opensource models, I would love to work as a freelancer and have an #opensource job. Even if someone can just provide access to computation resources, that would be good.

Finally today my memory cards arrived so I can enjoy playing with Libre Computer Alta. And when you do SBCs, Do NOT buy a cheap ordinary memory card. Or like me you will waste time and money. Alternatively, you could even go for M.2 SSD or boot from USB 3 if your SBC supports that.

#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?
