@geerlingguy that's a bummer. I was thinking about buying another #turingpi #rk1 before tariffs went into effect. I'm going to hold off for a while now. I didn't realize they were providing so little support. Doesn't seem fair to buy their products when Raspberry Pi actively works to support their products.

Install a bootloader onto Turing RK1 eMMC memory
The Turing RK1 is a new Compute Module, made for the Turing Pi 2 board and with compability to the Nvidia Jetson cards in mind. While the board has some impressive specs ( https://docs.turingpi.com/docs/turing-rk1-specs-and-io-ports ) it had one small issue: The used Rockchip RK3588 needed a bootloader on its eMMC to be able t

Been running K3s on four RK1 compute modules plugged into a TuringPi2 board for almost two weeks now. Everything except media stuff has been moved over, including this Mastodon instance.
It's been working a lot better than when I had previously tried RaspberyPis. Being able to use NVME storage (I'm using Longhorn) is a huge improvement to the RPi’s USB.

Oh excellent, my TuringPi RK1 32 GB is on the way. https://turingpi.com/product/turing-rk1/
It's an RK3588 chip, with a form factor which fits the TurningPi 2 board which I'm currently using to host my Pi CM4 worker nodes.
It has the downside of no netboot support and a bespoke Ubuntu, which is why I only got one of them. But it's going to be interesting to see whether I can put something like uboot on the eMMC flash and then get it to netboot.

Here is today's reminder that #Discord is NOT a forum!
@turingpi I'm looking at you. (Nice to see you here though!)
Discord is directly hostile to #opensource users.
It is not #accessible
It is not archived.
It does not allow anonymous viewing.
It is not searchable, and neither is it indexed by external search engines.
Data is walled in and unexportable.Bonus round: Chat is also NOT a forum!
Chat is a chronological firehose, good for temporally transient information, largely ungrouped. Forums are a topical tree, good for longer-lasting information grouped by subject.
If you would write it down in real life (including email) then use a forum.
If you would only say it out loud (in the hallway or on a call) then chat is perfectly fine.
And if you say it out loud while someone else writes it down, tell your assistant to use a forum.

Hm, difficult decision to make. The people who make the the Raspberry Pi cluster board I'm using are now also offering compute modules, 8 core Rockchip RK3588, with up to 32 GB of RAM: https://turingpi.com/product/turing-rk1/?attribute_ram=8+GB
But I haven't found any info on whether it can Netboot. And with things like this, I'm always questioning the SW support...
Definitely undecided right now.
