I am halting any kind of work on archlinux, parabola and pacman due to:
* Archlinux not giving a shit about aarch64 and actively blocks any kind of development for it
* ArchLinuxArm not replying to me and evidently removing my issue from their bug tracker about it
* Parabola, because Denis 'GNUToo' Carikli is keep kicking me from an IRC for no fucking reason
* Pacman is a trash package manager which source code should be put on a flash disk and thrown into a fire which would be a major help to address replication crisis in the computer science

The unfinished work that would provide a full compatibility of Parabola and ArchLinuxArm with all sunxi boards that currently builds a functional u-boot for OLIMEX Teres-A64 and can be easily adjusted to build other sunxi boards is provided on gist.github.com/Kreyren/97eef2

The preliminary ArchLinuxArm image for OLIMEX Teres-A64 which is using a hotfix with armbian u-boot, bootloader, kernel and kernel modules (due to lack of parabola's compatence to implement the required infrastructure) is provided on git.dotya.ml/kreyren/teres-a64

Fuck you arch and fuck you GNUToo

Will probably drop on providing an official support for Armbian's version for OLIMEX Teres-A64, the armbian maintainers are incompetent, waste everyone's time, are full of shit and constantly annoy me which blocks any kind of significant work imho.

The pain and misery i have to go through in to merge an official support for teres-a64 is somehow growing exponentially..

The other option is to get an ARM laptop. There are not many options there and all have some drawbacks: are very restricted and closed platforms (correct me if I'm wrong). has Allwinner cpu, only 2GB of ram and Mali gpu, which has no open drivers. The same goes with . would be perfect if was available as a ready to use device, not Build It From Scratch, where you need to buy your own LCD panel and stuff.

So, what are your opinions?
