I'm returning to my original question as I've now got the chance to get a Mixtile board within a month or so. I've read a thread about Genode being ported to the Pinephone Explorer. Is it based on the RK3399S, not on the RK3588, right? I also wonder how the so-called U.2 interface /* in fact it's necessary to use an adapter board to attach a U.2 drive */ will work with Genode.

Good evening Genodians,

in a couple of months I'll receive a number of Mixtile Blade 3 SBCs (based on the RK3588) https://www.crowdsupply.com/mixtile-limited/mixtile-blade-3 and would like to (at least) try to equip them with the Genode OS. What's necessary for my project, is clustering four such nodes with a PCIe switch (supplied by Mixtile; see their web page) as well as using single SBCs as storage nodes, which will be connected to a hard drive.

Is it possible to port Genode onto this platform, or is this impossible with the current version? I simply don't wanna start an infaust undertaking. Thank 

I have plans to start porting to rk3588 pretty soon and would be happy to collaborate. I have a different target, but most work is to get soc supported.
