Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@ExplainingComputers says : As a wise man has noted in the comments here, I should have entered an lscpu (list CPU details) in the terminal to get the CPU speed information for this board. I have now done this, and it lists "1600 MHz max, 614.4 MHz min". The 1600 MHz (max) figure is the one I ended up with in the video, but this information for the K1 X60 cores here is definitive. :)>> <<@PaulSpades says : I'm surprised the software runs this well. It's quite brave to build modern computing without FPUs, because lazy software tends to heavily depend on it. My opinion is that binary floating point was a mistake, and we're better off without it, but that's a very unpopular view amongst my fellow programmers.>> <<@LotusCarsLtd says : D U C K S 🦆🦆🦆>> <<@Stev-z4v says : KOreAwwwFalsinGazPavlovKwwwaiKarteBaysequoRulDoww10propoGandairielordz😢>> <<@sabahmohanadsaffaal-ameerb459 says : Lovely.🙂❤>> <<@skrywenko6596 says : to boot off the nvme with Bpi you usualy put the boot partion on an sd card and then point at sata or in your case NVMe so it be some thing like this copied from another Bpi setup: >fdisk /dev/sda Delete all partitions using the “d” option Create a new primary partition using the “n” option (you can accept all the defaults) Use the “w” option the apply the changes. Format the partition for rootfs with EXT4 filesystem > mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1 Copying Rootfs I still assume that /dev/sda represent the SATA drive > mkdir /tmp/1 /tmp/target > mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /tmp/1 > mount /dev/sda1 /tmp/target > (cd /tmp/1; tar --backup -c *) |tar -C /tmp/target -xv Change the kernel parameters in order to boot from the SSD drive > mkdir /tmp/boot > mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /tmp/boot > vim /tmp/boot/uEnv.txt Change the last line to: .. root=/dev/sda1 ... Sync to disk and reboot to your hard drive > sync > reboot this is what I had to do with my Bpi's that had SATA. so you will be similar adjusting for the NVMe or you can choose the overlay route if you like>> <<@reverend11-dmeow89 says : A decentr test platform with DeepComputing's DC-ROMA PAD II, it appears. Must get one now then.>> <<@shit_on_it says : Soldering an spi flash (U3 component on the motherboard, see the schematic provided by bananapi) on the motherboard can boot from the nvme ssd, and I have tried it>> <<@rossherrmann9854 says : HI Chris, i went and bought a Banana Pi after watching your review and well so far i haven't had much luck in getting it running. The first image i burnt to an SD card would only boot loop. I have downloaded the version 1.0.12 to try as well as the Armbian image. Also tried flashing the Bainbu OS to the EMMC but it came up with a window saying wrong input type. tried changing the dip switches to see if that would work. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but i will keep playing with it. Keep up the great work you are doing.>> <<@PredatoryQQmber says : For most important thing to know about such experimental boards is the status of GPU and wireless chip support in mainline kernel and software stack (Mesa). They are pointless if tied to binary blobs on unupdateable kernel.>> <<@GigaWhatt0 says : I'm gonna get that new mini-ITX Milk-V Jupiter board once it's back in stock. It's basically the same board as this but with a higher clocked version of this chip, 16GB ram, and full PCIe with GPU support. It's like $120.>> <<@tiagotorres1503 says : Thanks for sharing this material, it is really cool to see this kind of development of risc-v>> <<@rpc-scandinavia says : It looks like you are buying a Framework computer this or next year. Developing the RISC-V Framework Laptop Mainboard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMwepyyaj8I>> <<@hemanthkumar5438 says : Just a minor suggestion, while reviewing streaming video performance, search a "vsync test" on YouTube and open the video of single white band moving horizontally. This is important because large majority of SBC don't support it and its bad for eyes>> <<@mariandecker3942 says : Do hostapd or Networkmanager fully run? If so its gonna replace my FRITZ!Box soon :D>> <<@An.Individual says : Could be good for a NAS with 2* 3.5" HDD via SATA>> <<@chaoticsystem2211 says : so.. a fire and forget debian hack? from a google drive? yay>> <<@tbas8741 says : For a bad Comparison i ran the GL Aquarium on my R5 7600x + RTX3060 (non TI 12GB) and at 30,000 FISH it was pegged at 60fps due to my refresh rate. So at 5000 fish without it locked might be more around 300fps or more.>> <<@mirragemelkyr says : Which psu are you using for the bpi-f3?>> <<@geraldfryjr3723 says : I just got this board in the mail yesterday, it will be interesting to see what it can do !! New stuff is coming up for RISCV, I have read Hangover (WINE type app) is being ported and I think BOX64 for dos stuff may work and JAVA IIRC is being ported if not already. I really like the fact you used it as your main for a week and said "It Did Not Crash ! ", is most impressive in itself......... So I ordered one as soon as I watched this video !! :D😃>> <<@jamesrivettcarnac says : The quality of your videos has increased so much over the years.>> <<@MrGoMario says : You should try FreeBSD. I am very much interested to run pfSense on a small motherboard...>> <<@Captain71ridingPhilippin-dd1ef says : I'm planning to buy one of the three RISC-V SBCs that you have been testing here. What's your suggestion; in terms of power, speed, and software stability? BPI-F3, Lichee Pi 4A, or VisionFive 2? I'm leaning to BPI-F3 (like the looks of that Bianbu OS), but although it is the cheapest (on Alibaba), it has only 4GB of RAM? I'm used to OPI 5 plus with 16GB of RAM (so much so that I'm using it as my main computer for the past 6 months). But then again, I need RAM for LISP (Racket) programming, and as none of the LISPs/Schemes are running on RISC-V yet, that might not be a problem at all.>> <<@TomekSw says : You can add your VAT number to aliexpress>> <<@tolpacourt says : It really should be SpaceMitt i.e. space mitten.>> <<@autohmae says : I hope all the software gets into regular Debian, etc. as well. Just saw that this is the same chip as Ubuntu is working on, so probably good news.>> <<@AffectionateBeignets-mx2qd says : Pretty snappy for RISC V. Future looks good.>> <<@shivanSpS says : This is the same SoC that will be used in the Milk-V Jupiter it seems.>> <<@pweddy1 says : Banna Pi sealed for freshness!>> <<@BandoLyrix says : Wow 1.02M .... i was here since 140K. Well Done Sir!!!>> <<@batatarugal says : This is a REAL computer scientist>> <<@torronG says : Up>> <<@unveil7762 says : Please do a video with this board + Hailo NPU !!! revolutionary opensource no x86 AI dev kit !!! YESSS!!! >> <<@ShaunakHub says : The wallpaper looks nice 🙂>> <<@SuperKalKent says : Love this risc V update. I want to point out, since I work as a PC tech, Crucial are great quality drives however, they are more fussy than nearly any brand of drive I've ever worked with. About 20% of various PCs and laptops simply won't detect crucial SSDs as a boot drive. Thanks for your constant videos!>> <<@mattparker9726 says : 1:43 also 88 bucks is too expensive. I can buy to SFF x86 machines for that. Full tower machines no less.>> <<@diuran3029 says : pfff still can't run YouTube 4k/60 without losing frames but overall it's a good device>> <<@CB-e5v says : Hi Christopher, I watch almost all of your videos, and just letting you know that I always find them very interesting and tought provoking, and friendly and funny too. And typically I am sad that I am not able to put a like on them, because I am more or less de-googled, and I watch them without being logged into google. (e.g. I use new-pipe app on android). I specifially logged into an old google account to let you know that you have more likes than actually shown on youtube :-)>> <<@X.i.m.b.a says : Hi. Where can I download a iso of Bianbu OS to test in a virtual machine ?>> <<@NiyaKouya says : Interesting board and a nice display that RISC-V is moving forward with pretty big steps. But I still guess that the first consumer-ready devices we might see with RISC-V inside will be stuff like routers and other network or "smart" devices where no one will notice it unless they look at the spec sheet. Still, I think RISC-V is heading towards a bright future and might become a worthy rival for x86 and ARM soon-ish.>> <<@bobweiram6321 says : Bianbu OS looks aesthetically pleasing compared to other distros. God help us all when the Chinese start polishing their products. It will be the final nail on western industry.>> <<@bobweiram6321 says : Do they still make the glasses he's wearing? It looks like it was made back in the 1970s.>> <<@Sithhy says : Can't wait for RISC-V ITX motherboards>> <<@Foysalispbroadbandmetrowifi says : /dev/sda2: Timing O_DIRECT disk reads: 1138 MB in 3.00 seconds = 378.74 MB/sec [Foysal@ns1 ~]$ Thank you so much for that #command>> <<@Foysalispbroadbandmetrowifi says : /dev/sda1: Timing O_DIRECT disk reads: 314 MB in 3.00 seconds = 104.62 MB/sec [Foysal@ns1 ~]$ sudo hdparm -t --direct /dev/sdb1>> <<@Foysalispbroadbandmetrowifi says : /dev/sdb1: Timing O_DIRECT disk reads: 338 MB in 3.01 seconds = 112.44 MB/sec [Foysal@ns1 ~]$ sudo hdparm -t --direct /dev/sdc1>> <<@Foysalispbroadbandmetrowifi says : My RHEL 8 Result! This correct? /dev/sdc1: Timing O_DIRECT disk reads: 1406 MB in 3.00 seconds = 468.02 MB/sec>> <<@user-retrofit says : Always love RISC-V content.>> <<@fu1r4 says : 2:05 No scissors are needed. Look at the other end of the bag and you can see a tiny notch you use to tear open the bag 😁>> <<@jwoody8815 says : gets me pretty excited, Ive been pining for an x86 and ARM alternative. Even the OS interface seems polished and elegant. Id be more excited with a 8GB or 16GB Main RAM option.>>
