Gigabyte MP30-AR0
by Gordan Bobic 09 Oct '24

09 Oct '24

Hi, I am toying with the idea of getting a Gigabyte MP30-AR0 board (despite the insanely exorbitant price tag). Has anyone got the aarch64 CentOS working on one of those? Any special instructions? Also, if I get the ISO, is it bootable on aarch64? Does the installer work? Or does the image have to be used like on 32-bit ARM? Thanks. Gordan

How to Use UEFI on Gigabyte MP30-AR0
by YOYO 09 Oct '24

09 Oct '24

Hello everyone, As I've wrote in url[1], I recently got a Gigabyte Mp30-AR0 (rev 1.1) motherboard from a online second-hand market. Thanks to those helpful Linux enthusiasms, I'm now clear that I should firstly find a way to turn the motherboard from U-Boot mode to UEFI mode. And I saw a discuss thread from this mailing-list(url[2]), especially messages, as url[3] to [6]. I do not want to write UEFI firmware into onboard flash or EEPROM.  Instead, I wish I could put the firmware just in a USB-storage or SD card,  so that the original on-board U-Boot and build-in OpenLinux.  So I would like to boot as Gordan Bobic and Michael Howard had discussed: (Also referring to url[4], [5] and [6].) 1) u-boot (on-board) 2) UEFI (wherever u-boot can fetch it from) 3) grub (off the UEFI FAT partition on the target disk) 4) Kernel (/boot partition) However, I couldn't find out how to set U-Boot to boot as above. One another problem is that, I couldn't get access to url[9], which is mentioned in url[3], [7] and [8]. Thank you for your generous help in advance. Also please pardon my not reply on time because I couldn't apply your advises into use immediately. BTW: Please tell me if there is any need tool like RS232-to-USB converter etc.  Lists of mentioned Urls: url[1]:  https://lists.debian.org/debian-arm/2024/09/msg00016.html url[2]:  https://lists.centos.org/hyperkitty/list/arm-dev@lists.centos.org/thread/6J… url[3]:  https://lists.centos.org/hyperkitty/list/arm-dev@lists.centos.org/message/C… url[4]:  https://lists.centos.org/hyperkitty/list/arm-dev@lists.centos.org/message/6… url[5]:  https://lists.centos.org/hyperkitty/list/arm-dev@lists.centos.org/message/K… url[6]:  https://lists.centos.org/hyperkitty/list/arm-dev@lists.centos.org/message/Y… url[7]:  https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/arm-dev/2016-February/021839.html url[8]:  https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/arm-dev/2016-March/001743.html url[9]:  https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/20403943/mp30ar0_tianocore_binaries.tar… Best Regards, Richard Zhang

nss-3.67.0-4 (and related packages) missing for arm-64
by Raj Shekhar 08 Mar '22

08 Mar '22

Hi I a running centos-7.9 (CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (AltArch)) nss had a vulnerability reported with a CVSS score of 9.8 (https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2021-43527). I can see that there is a x86_64 package for nss that fixes this vulnerability (nss-3.67.0-4.el7_9.x86_64) rpm -q nss --changelog |head -n 10 * Thu Nov 18 2021 Bob Relyea <rrelyea(a)redhat.com> - 3.67.0-4 - fix CVE-2021-43527 However, when I tried to find the updated package for aarch64, I don't see a package fixing this vulnerability for aarch64. Reading the security report seems to indicate that this affects all architectures. I can also see that amazonlinux and oracle linux have released nss packages to address this vulnerability. Looking through the centos forums, I have not been able to figure out why this package is missing for aarch64. Does someone know why this package with high vulnerability has not been updated for centos-7.9? Thanks for your guidance. -- Raj Shekhar

Centos7/8 aarch64 for Odroid HC4
by Robert Moskowitz 02 Mar '22

02 Mar '22

I recently got an Odroid HC4. I built an armbian SD and used that to remove the bootloader so I can boot the armbian up easily. Now it is time to get Centos working. Do you have a uboot for the HC4? (I can try the armbian's if needed) Is there install instructions and of course where to get the iso images. thanks

Copying uboot from one SD to another
by Robert Moskowitz 01 Mar '22

01 Mar '22

How can I get the uboot off an SD card and then put it on another? dd is fine, but how much do I move? The whole 4MB infront of the first partition? Or is there some way to determine the actual uboot size and grab just that? thanks

Updated to current C7 and lost OdroidHC1 ethernet
by Robert Moskowitz 28 Feb '22

28 Feb '22

I had an install of C7-1810 from 3 years ago on an Odroid HC1 that I powered up yesterday. I did a yum update that took it all the way to C7.9, and I lost my ethernet. It is not showing at all. Ideas on what to do for this? It should not take too much to go back to what I had before and start a new. Or use a different starting image. thanks

RPM kernels for PI2
by stephan54190 28 Feb '22

28 Feb '22

Hello the CentOS team, I just found something surprising, on http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7.9.2009/kernel/armhfp/kernel-rpi2/Package… There, one can see many raspberrypi2-kernel RPMs: - raspberrypi2-kernel-5.10.23-v7.1.el7.armv7hl.rpm (initial) - ... - raspberrypi2-kernel-5.4.179-v7.1.el7.armv7hl.rpm (most recent one). But one can also see raspberrypi2-kernel-5.10.23-v7.1.el7.armv7hl.rpm, when all other 5.10.xxx come in "experimental". Am I wrong, or this leads YUM UPDATE to update to 5.10.23 and being stuck there (if experimental repo is disabled) ? Regards, Stephan.

Centos 9 status?
by Robert Moskowitz 22 Feb '22

22 Feb '22

Greetings and long time not been around. I am looking at getting a current Centos-arm DNS server going and managed with Webmin instead of doing it myself (currently running my DNS on Cubieboard2 and Centos7 all zones hand-crafted). So I was looking at getting Centos8-arm and noticed that EoL is 6/30/2024! What? The main Centos list talks about Stream 9, but nothing about Linux 9. What is the status of 9? will we see something, say in the next month when I am likely to do this? thanks

My main problem is that I try to build it > for 7 and 8, armhfp/aarch64 and there are some tools that I need to > backport from Fedora to correctly do that. el8 aarch64 is a bit problematic, the now quite popular aarch64(Rockchip) rk3399 needs a arm 32bit cross compiler, until now used a hack to pull it from epel-7 as it is not present in epel-8. Recently rebuild the cross-toolchian from FC29 (cross-gcc-8.1.1-3) as this fits the major versioning of binutils 2.30.x . Also the device tree compiler in el8 does not ship the python3 wrappers needed to build uboot-tools, Hence did rebuild dtc with the python3 wrapper packaged. Again, as far as I know the above only applies to el8. > I have some PoC tools from a few months ago that I'll try to revive, > we'll see how that goes.
