[SOLVED] Crunchbag for ARM

platypo · 09-16-2024, 05:28 AM

I am looking for a OS compareable to Crunchbag, and for ARMv7 architecture. From the website Crunchbang++ as well as bunsenlabs is only available for amd.
Can anyone give recommendations? Thanks!

Armv7 is 32bit. Most Existing distros keep a distribution online for users who want to play with toys, but all development is 64bit.

Crunchbag I haven't heard of, but if it put together a linux distro I'd expect 64bit. Armv7 isn't enough, because you need something for your sbc, because all booting strategies are different.

Some that I know of :-

Devuan - https://arm-files.devuan.org/

Armbian - https://www.armbian.com/download/

RaspiOS - https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/

(& also OpenBSD & NetBSD)

Ofc, i haven't yet considered BSD or anything like that. Finally an opportunity to get into it. Yes, it was my bad, i meant ARMv8. I really liked crunchbag it was the perfect blend of GUI and general ressource management for what i know, all of that out of the box. Nevertheless, thanks.
