From 9a51a07a9175cd564fffa89a6b8b851c258384a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Francois Dugast Date: Fri, 27 Oct 2023 13:47:00 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] configs/sipeed_licheepi_nano: new board Add support for the LicheePi Nano with mainline components: - U-Boot 2023.04 - Linux 6.5.9 Board homepage and more usable WiKi: - https://wiki.sipeed.com/hardware/en/lichee/Nano/Nano.html - https://linux-sunxi.org/LicheePi_Nano linux.fragment is required to disable some features in order to keep the kernel size small, otherwise the board does not boot due to limited memory.
