Armbian distribution release 22.08

published release Linux-Distribution Armbian 22.08 , providing a compact systemic environment for various one -pay computers based on ARM processors, including various модели Raspberry Pi, Odroid, Orange Pi, Banana Pi, Helios64, pine64, Nanopi и Cubieboard на базе процессоров Allwinner, Amlogic, Actionsemi, Freescale / NXP, Marvell Armada, Rockchip, Radxa и Samsung Exynos.

Для формирования сборок используются пакетные DEBIAN and UBUNTU databases, but the environment is completely re -registered using its own assembly system with the inclusion of optimization to reduce size, increase productivity and use additional protection mechanisms. For example, the /Var /log section is mounted using ZRAM and is stored in RAM in compressed form with the discharge of data to the drive once a day or at the end of the work. Section /TMP is mounted using TMPFS.
