1Intro 2===== 3 4The instructions herein are valid for the FriendlyARM NanoPi NEO, 5both the 256MiB and 512MiB versions. They should also work for the 6NanoPi NEO Air, but this is untested so far. 7 8The FriendlyARM Nanopi NEO is a 4x4cm² board with an Allwiner H3 SoC: 9 - quad-core Cortex-A7 @1.2GHz 10 - 256 or 512MiB of DDR 11 - uSDCard as only storage option 12 - 3x USB 2.0 host (one socket, two on expansion pin-holes) 13 - 1x USB 2.0 OTG (also used as power source) 14 - 10/100 ethernet MAC 15 - GPIOs, SPI, I2c... 16 17Support for the Nanopi NEO in U-Boot and Linux is very recent, so only 18core, basic features are available. 19 20Unfortunately, support for the ethernet MAC and the USB OTG are not 21yet upstream, but are being actively worked on. 22 23 24How to build 25============ 26 27 $ make friendlyarm_nanopi_neo_defconfig 28 $ make 29 30Note: you will need access to the internet to download the required 31sources. 32 33You will then obtain an image ready to be written to your micro SDcard: 34 35 $ dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX bs=1M 36 37Notes: 38 - replace 'sdX' with the actual device with your micro SDcard, 39 - you may need to be root to do that (use 'sudo'). 40 41Insert the micro SDcard in your NanoPi NEO and power it up. The console 42is on the serial line, 115200 8N1. 43
