1) Question from David: Armbian does not work with the Mango Pi MQ quad, is does not load any OS image

2) Answer from NicoD’s SBCs

  • The Mango MQ quad is a very different board than the Mango Pi MQ pro.
  • The Mango MQ quat is a ARM based board.
  • The Mango MQ Pro is a RISC-V based board.
  • You can’t run the same software on both devices

There is currently not Armbian image available for th Mango PI MQ Quad, it can also not be build as the Armbian from the Armbian Mango Pi Pro, but there are 3 images which can be downloaded from the manufacturer, Debian is recommended.
