[Arm-dev] CubieTruck Plus (Cubieboard5) image

The Cubieboard 5 is actually built around an Allwinner H8, which is a 32-bit SoC.

Comparison here: http://dl.cubieboard.org/model/Cubietruck-plus/docs/CB5%20vs%20CB3.pdf

>From what I recall, it is similar to the Allwinner A80 SoC used on the Cubieboard 4...but I do not know much about how it boots.  Perhaps the existing CubieTruck CentOs image could be adapted to support the CT-Plus??

AFAIK Cubieboard5 is armv8/aarch64, which is now released.
But does that board support uefi boot ? if so the normal distro should
probably just work ?
