[08:59] <Aussie_matt> hi all, does anyone know if the later ubuntu versions support the allwinner a10 chip from the iso with out any mods?
[09:38] <hrw> iirc no
[09:57] <Aussie_matt> hrw: was that at me?
[09:57] <ogra_> the iso :)
[09:58] <Aussie_matt> ogra_: ?
[10:02] <ogra_> doe your a10 device have a CDrom ?
[10:02] <Aussie_matt> no, boots of sd card
[10:03] <ogra_> why would you expect an iso then ?
[10:03] <ogra_> (there are only either img files you can dd to the SD card or tarballs with rootfs)
[10:04] <ogra_> but there are no images for a10 devices
[10:04] <Aussie_matt> ah: so a ISO can't be put on an sd and function?
[10:05] <ogra_> it can
[10:05] <ogra_> you could indeed loop mount it
[10:07] <Aussie_matt> but it wouldnt work?
[10:08] <ogra_> there are no installer images for most arm machines ... you will have to assemble something yourself
[10:09] <Aussie_matt> mmmmm sounds like a headache lol
[10:10] <ogra_> well, its arm ...
[10:11] <ogra_> you usually manage your bootloader and kernel yourself and use a rootfs from your preferred distro with it
[10:11] <Aussie_matt> yeah im learning that the hard way lol
[10:11] <ogra_> ubuntu supports a handfull of boards with the netinst installer but no a10 ones
[10:11] <Aussie_matt> ah interesting
