A while ago, the company's domain (miniand.com) seemed to be abandoned, so a lot of the information and files that were there are no longer available. It's been a bit challenging to put together an OS. A lot of tutorials and wiki pages about the Hackberry directed users to the Miniand website to obtain pre-made boot images, so those links are now useless.<br /> <br /> I have created a Debian image that works out of the box. Just image the SD card and it's good to go. I may make more images if I end up needing them for special purposes. Look in the [[#File Downloads|File Downloads]] section below.<br /> <br /> __TOC__<br /> <br /> == File Downloads ==<br /> &lt;span id=&quot;file-downloads&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;<br /> Enjoy these files!!<br /> <br /> * [[Hackberry A10 Desktop (Debian/Xfce4) 1.0]] (find the notes and checksums here too)<br /> <br /> == Specs ==<br /> <br /> &lt;html&gt;<br /> &lt;table class=&quot;infobox&quot;
