= Sunxi support =

Current status
Mainline support is WIP.

Manual build
You can build things for yourself by following our Manual build howto and by choosing from the configurations available below.

Mainline U-Boot
Still being done. To try out the working-in-progress code, retrieve the code at and use the sipeed_maixsense_defconfig build target.

Mainline kernel
Still being done. To try out the working-in-progress code, retrieve the code at and use the sun50i-r329-maixsense.dtb device-tree binary.

= Tips, Tricks, Caveats =

FEL mode
By default no SPI Flash is soldered, that means just removing SD card makes the SoC to enter FEL.

= Adding a serial port =

Just plug a cable connected to your PC to the port at the down side (next to the 4-pin connector, which provides another UART, not the debug one). An onboard CH340 USB-UART bridge is available for accessing the debug UART.
