So it begins...

I'd never thought a small ARM machine for ~600€ could be a good deal... that was before the RAMPocalypse...

The Minisforum MS-R1 comes with 64GB LPDDR5 ECC RAM.
Thankfully I still had a spare KingSpec XG7000 2TB m.2 NVME SSD

The CIX P1 CP8180 CPU is very new and Kernel upstreaming started in ernest with 2.6.19 but mainline is far from useable and the Debian Bookworm image that Minisforum provides is... a bit old.

However Ubuntu has a working Image
of 26.06 LTS that I used to install my machine with.

Working 10Gbit Ethernet and Wifi is nice.

Chimera Linux sits happily in a QEMU/KVM running on the same machine.

Next step: get the needed bits into Chimera but not while it's so hot around here.

This CIX P1 mainboard give the Framework Laptop a 12-core Arm-based processor

The CIX P1 processor is a 12-core Arm-based chip designed to offer PC-class CPU, graphics, and AI features. MINISFORUM tapped this processor for its MS-R1 desktop computer, and Radxa and Orange Pi have used it for single-board PCs.

Now a Swiss company called MetaComputing is bringing the chip to laptops. Rather than designing a complete laptop from scratch though, the company is selling a […]
