Installing ArchLinuxARM on Khadas VIM Pro device

update see first post. just to note some problem currently with mainline.

Know Problems:

  • [ ] USB is not supported on the mainline Linux Kernel yet, see linux-meson (Khadas VIM uses the S905X SoC, also called GXL -> USB is still work-in-progress
  • [x] WiFi problem reported and solved, info could be found here
  • [ ] Ethernet problems: sometimes detected only as 10Mbps and with 4.12-rc4 download will stall and SSH session would be disconnected. Reported here.
    Added:
    I collected as much as possible information and put I second post. Maybe @Gouwa and his Team can check this issue in mainline kernel and help us solve the issue?
