I received a Raspberry PI 3 for Christmas with which I am playing. I would like to install the aarch64 CentOS 1611. However I am finding very limited information on the web as how to go about doing that. Can somebody get me started on what I need to do in order to install CentOS 1611? Some initial questions.
1.) Can the aarch64 distribution even be installed on a Raspberry PI 3?
2.) If the answer to question 1 is yes, can somebody give me some instructions on how to proceed? Links to any quick start or installation guides would be appreciated.
3.) I have not been able to get X windows to start with the armv7hl CentOS version already installed. Will Gnome run on Raspberry PI 3 or is some other desktop graphics suggested?
Thank you for your help getting started.
+1.
I was kind of waiting for the RPI3 to be discussed in "Release for CentOS 7.3.1611 on ARM64/AArch64", https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/arm-dev/2017-January/002521.html.
