[Rock64] Difference between Install images

jsfrederick · Dec 31st 2018

I see that there are two install images for the Rock 64. One "official' one here on the OMV site, and one put together by Ayufan on his GitHub site. Any reason I should use one over the other?

Not really since they contain almost the same set of optimizations (just minor differences like e.g. using zram more aggressively on the 'official' OMV image).

If you want to use Plex media server or are low on memory (1GB variants) I would recommend choosing ayufan's armhf OMV image over my 'official' one (arm64 -- 64 bit so with a larger memory footprint compared to running armhf/32-bit)

Thanks TK. I figured as much. Using 4GB Rock64 (actually a Popcornhour Transformer NAS) so I am ok with the arm64.

I tried the Ayufan image last night, and am now trying your "official" one. Will see which one works better for me.
