Hello, I would like to use mender.io with Intel NUC. Is this possible? Is there a build that supports Intel NUC 8th generation x64 processors? Thanks

I tried that and it should be possible but sharing it here is still on my todo list. Maybe as inspiration you can try this topic as example (it’s also x86 board): MinnowBoard Turbot

You can build for intel-nuc just fine. I have a one running right now. here is what i have in local.conf. The only issue i have had is NUC bios likes to make usb sticks hd0 before sata drives.even if you disable usb as a bootable method. ## MENDER ################################################ M…

@bbbh wold be possible to create topic on hub how to use intel nuc with mender? I’m building image now so can help also :slight_smile: Thanks for sharing.

Hi, is there an instruction how to build this?

@zer02 as mentioned above you can use MinnowBoard as template and use local.conf additions shared by @bbbh

@bbbh how do you manage to run from usb stick? I flashed uefimg to usb but when kernel is started it tries to mount root=/dev/sda2 which fails (as hdd is empty). Can you please share how you do it? Thanks.

@mirzak thanks that was next thing to try today ;). Also I find out about partuuid but didn’t find any documentation so now it’s clear. Also when playing with grub there should be possibility to add debug-pause functionality but cannot find appropriate patch in tree. Thanks. If it will work then I’l…

@mirzak /dev/sdb doesn’t work also. When did some debugging in grub looks like that there is gpt partitions only (maybe need use root=LABEL=rootA). This is bit strange as /dev/sdb should exists. Puzzled. I’ll keep this thread notified if I find something.

@MarekBelisko , came to think of something. You might need this fix: [mirzak] add 'rootwait' to bootargs by mirzak on 07:52AM - 24 Jan 19 UTC 1 commits changed 2 files with 2 additions and 1 deletions. Before that there was some insta…
