Hey everyone, I’m looking to replace my router with a NanoPi R6S but want to do everything myself from Alpine Linux.
I’ve been doing a lot of research and it seems that the chipset and hardware are supported as of Linux 6.3, but looking at Alpine’s ARM documentation makes installation sound a bit more advanced than I’m used to (specifically, the partition layout and U-Boot are confusing to me).
Has anyone gone this route?
Yeah OpenWRT is incredibly slim. I remember doing a double-take looking at their install page because the memory requirements are so low. I’m used to seeing numbers in GB and they’re saying they can provide full functionality in 64 MB.
