Several BeagleBoards are now supported under the Armbian build system and community!
Armbian is a lightweight Linux distribution and build system optimized for ARM-based single-board computers (SBCs).
Adopting Armbian will help standardize the user experience and software release schedule for all boards while simultaneously being able to provide options for different distros (various Debian and Ubuntu versions), different desktop environments (Gnome, XFCE, Cinnamon) and even more specialty distros & apps like Kali Linux and HomeAssistant.
The build system also enables users and developers alike to easily tweak the kernel, u-boot, installed packages and add patches without having to setup custom build environments. Just install your favorite container engine (Podman/Docker) and go!
Full feature enablement is still a work in progress compared to Beagle Debian, but we look forward to your feedback and contributions!
Images are currently available for PocketBeagle 2, BeagleY-AI, BeagleBone AI64 and BeaglePlay.
