User request for Orange Pi Zero 2 support
[klutchell] This issue has attached support thread https://jel.ly.fish/c7c48b43-7bb8-4d56-8955-9ec7aee6f1c9
Would be great to see support for Allwinner H616 (which the Orange Pi Zero 2 uses) as there is now a fair few devices around, from CM4-footprint compatible to very small "solder-down" modules.
For future reference, I came across someone on Github working on a potential Yocto BSP: https://github.com/katyo/meta-sunxi64
Likely still a lot of challenges in offering balena support but useful for reference.
We too have moved to using the H616 orange pi zero 2. Would love to use balena cloud to manage these devices but for now having to go with armbian and custom deployments. +1 for support for this board!
Will vote for the support as well. Alternative to Rpi Zero 2 W which is available and has a good set of feature at a good price point.
BSP support for this board is available from the vendor since Kirkstone: https://github.com/linux-sunxi/meta-sunxi/blob/kirkstone/conf/machine/orange-pi-zero2.conf So supporting it in balena should be easier now. We'll take this internally and get back to you on it.
