The PINE A64

The PINE A64 and the PINE A64+ is PINE64's first Single Board Computer powered by Allwinner’s A64 quad-core ARM Cortex A53 64-Bit SoC. There are many Operating Systems available for the PINE A64 created by the open source community and various partner projects. Currently the majority of Linux distributions for the PINE A64 are using mainline Linux but there are a number of BSP-based distribution and / or legacy systems that can be downloaded too.

Software releases

Under PINE A64 Software Releases you will find a complete list of currently supported operating system images, which work with the PINE A64, as well as other related software.
