Getting the userland working should be doable fairly easily, but I haven't put any effort into supporting that board yet. Lamar was asking about it last week as well ( https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/arm-dev/2016-April/001944.html ) and may have made some progress. I would certainly welcome any community assistance in getting it working.

Thanks for this info.
@Lamar: have you any progress on that work? Can I help you ?
I will try it with the Ubuntu Image and this howto with kpartx.

I had thought I would have time last Saturday, but instead I spent the day working on a portion of our website migration and upgrade, writing a quickie script to generate a list of image URLs and perform the copies of 28,000+ image and pages, about 48GB of data.
I see you have found the thread at http://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=138&t=19924 and that's where I'm at at the moment. I'm always open for help of any kind.

Some others seem to find this just as interesting, and it appears that one has done it at this point. See https://github.com/umiddelb/aarch64/wiki/Install-CentOS-7-on-the-ODROID-C2

Already working on doing so, yes.

You're welcome. I didn't have an eMMC card (to run the Debian building system) and so I've ordered one so that I can use it to build C7 out to SD card. I have a couple of C2's now and have just been setting up the initial Debian build env for the kernel build on one of the SD cards I have, using the UART console as well as SSH. I'm using the 'meveric' Debian Jessie for C2 available at http://oph.mdrjr.net/meveric/images/Jessie/Debian-Jessie64-1.0~RC2-2016-03-1...
So, once the eMMC module comes in I'll install the meveric Jessie image and do the build and then create a prelim C7 image for SD for testing.

Now, time to try to get some desktop stuff loaded as well as get GNUradio built and running (running a GNURadio instance with an RTL-SDR and/or an Ettus Research USRP is the reason I even have this device.....). I know the mali-fbdev files will need to be worked on and loaded, and I'm not sure how to go about doing that. Although the end desired use is as a remote device with a remote desktop setup (either VNC or xrdp).
Anyone with any idea on the EPEL for ARMv8 timeline?

Unfortunately EPEL's schedule is driven by the Fedora Engineering process and their hardware acquisition. I know they're working on it, but I don't know when it'll happen.

Ok, thanks. I can roll my own ad hoc 'smock' buildsys in the interim, I just have to go back over my notes I made when rebuilding C5 on IA64..... and I will need a USB hard disk connected to the box, it appears. Time to mirror the EPEL SRPMS......

Oh, and FWIW, the C2 builds things rather quickly, even to microSD. The 2GB of RAM and the 4 2.0GHz cores really make a difference; the few builds I've tried on the BBone Black and the original RasPi were painfully slow; not so on the C2.
The mock configs used to build the distro packages for aarch64 are on git.centos.org, so that should help somewhat. Let me know if you get stuck with anything. Happy to help with package builds as much as I can.

Thanks. These mock configs are in bld-seven as: c7.1511.00.a64-aarch64.cfg, c7.1511.u.a64-aarch64.cfg, and c7-extras.a64-aarch64.cfg, right?
Correct, that's them.

https://cbs.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=10539 should be a mock build, which includes the configs, testing feedback appreciated and then we can move to release it

Can we throw a builder at this, along with a for loop and see if we can do a one off churn ?

Anyone know if this was ever done, or are we waiting on AArch64 from upstream?
In any case, here's a link to a screenshot or a VNC window connected to the C2 running C7 with the GNU Radio Companion loaded that you might find interesting: https://nebula.pari.edu/index.php/s/3DIZApIVHEPD2id/download

This should actually be kicking off soon. We had some scheduled downtime last week to upgrade storage and some other builder updates. There are also a couple bugs (like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1193178 ) that we have to address. We should have something coming in the next week or so for development use as a 'beta' build.
