Hi, I have compiled a 6.3 kernel for arch linux on the bpi-m5

Here is an ~Arch Linux xfce image to flash on emmc (it is for the bpi-m5) Please reshare with a google drive link as this link will last until the 30th of June 2023 only

I cant seem to update it fails on two packages:

➜ ~ sudo pacman -Syu :: Synchronizing package databases… core is up to date extra is up to date community is up to date alarm is up to date aur is up to date archlinuxdroid is up to date dangku.db failed to download error: failed retrieving file ‘archlinuxdroid.db’ from 104.131.53.77 : Connection timeout after 10001 ms error: failed retrieving file ‘dangku.db’ from 10.0.1.9 : Connection timeout after 10001 ms error: failed retrieving file ‘dangku.db’ from github.com : The requested URL returned error: 404 error: failed to synchronize all databases (failed to retrieve some files)

Hello there!

I’m interested in an arch linux image with a more recent kernel for the bpi m5.

unfortunately the links you posted already expired. Can I find this image somewhere else? Alternatively, instructions on how to build it myself would be welcome too.

Thanks in advance!

This seems like the link can be accessed.

That’s right, that link is still up! However, the image is compiled with kernel version 4.9.312. I require kernel 4.10 or higher!

Thank you for the help

The link here is from a third party and it has indeed become invalid.

Sorry, I can’t offer much help with the kernel. I only found the official website of Archlinux: https://archlinux.org/. Perhaps you can look for it here.
