Nice. Thanks

@george any reason this isn't already built in into the published images?

george

@Momo-0
The mirror in May will include this modification.

@george any chance you could include the wireguard kernel modules too in these images?

Apply the following patch and compile to replace the kernel.

@george said in Cool Pi Cm5-Laptop Linux Quick Start Guide:

@yfblock
Test several USB drives and find a USB 2.0 interface drive. There may be compatibility issues with USB3.0.

interesting conversation… I wonder if the notebook/ SoC is supported something like a uefi boot already, from your suggestion it seems like the case, no?

@ngavarta just got mine, can’t wait to hands on my new toy

@george

EXFAT is still not in the kernel. It also seems that the building process is broken, so I can't implement it. Please check.

Best regards,
Peter
