Hi,
I see there's a snapshot image for RPIB in the 10.x snapshot folder, and an
RPI2 image in the 11.x snapshot folder. I have 10.x running on my RPIB but
can't seem to get the 11.x image to boot on the RPI2. (It hangs on the
rainbow screen.) I know the 11.x branch is under heavy development still,
so I was wondering what the prognosis is for building a 10.x image for the
RPI2. I'm finding a lot of conflicting information on Google and I suspect
that's because the RPI2 is fairly new, so I was hoping someone here could
give me the definitive answer for how to get 10.x on an RPI2. If I do a
build/install world on the RPIB with the most up-to-date 10.x source, will
that give me a bootable installation that I could take the SD card out of
the RPIB and drop it into the RPI2? Or do I have to cross compile from an
Intel machine and then use crochet?
Thanks in advance for any pointers and help.
