Lenovo C630 WOS?
 
Any have any luck, or even attempted, installing or using Slackware ARM on the Lenovo C630 with the Snapdragon 850?

I got Slackware on a snapdragon 600 IFC6410 ... back then the 4 cores @1.7Ghz looked promising ... but the whole experience was so disappointing that it's collecting dust ... the RPi4 even if slightly slower clock is a better user experience.
Back in 2016 I think I used kernel from linaro and Stuart's miniroot to get going.
Unfortunately I was so disappointing that I did not document what I did and now I've forgotten all the details.

I am wondering how the performance will be. Looking up reviews of the C630 they say it's "ok", which hopefully means "good enough" for linux.

Hi I tried yesterday to boot the Fedora 36 beta from the USB key, but without success. I will see in the next days if I get more informed on what to try.
Its suposed to run Ubuntu aarm64 from what I copuld read, and my intention is to see if I can run fedora and later get Salckware on it.
