Re: Kernel 4.12
Hi All,
I cross compiled the RC4 on my ubuntu MATE 16.04.2 LTS x86-64 today.
Could you please test this cross compiled kernel on your AmigaOne X1000? I'd like to know if it works.
Download: vmlinux-4.12-rc4-cc-AmigaONE_X1000.tar.gz
Cross compiling instructions:
System requirements: Ubuntu 14.04 x86 or higher
