From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I did sudo mount /dev/sda1 it returned this:

/dev/sda1: can't find in /etc/fstab

Yes, you need to specify the path where it should be mounted to. I proposed using /mnt.

Oh, thank you

Edit:

The solution worked, the software is for arm tho.

What kind of system do you have? I assumed it was a small RPi like device.

[–] sleepybisexual@beehaw.org 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Its a uconsole r-01

As it is its kind of terrible but looks cool. Might upgrade to a cm4 but would like to use the machine

So you need to build from source, as I don't see a prebuild version for RISC-V on their Github-page. As your system probably is supposed to be slim, you can try cross building from source on another computer. But if you are interested in doing that, please ask in a separate post, as I've never done that.

So basically use the source code elsewhere? I'll ask later, thank you
