Ingenic seems to be one of the last men standing for MIPS...

Nice!

Well, there is no need to try anything. It works on CI20 with Debian
and e.g. a v5.19-rc kernel.

Baking [*] a bootable µSD is just:

	makesd -vk latest ci20 -r quantumstep

HDMI monitors now work with the latest kernels.

Unfortunately the potential of such an approach is rarely regognised
(like here).

BR and thanks for the links,
Nikolaus


[*] there was a bug in makesd which did mix a stable kernel and latest
kernel modules. Has been fixed. One needs to run 'makesd -u' if already
installed on the host PC.
