11:03 <BryceII> Theyt are not kidding when they say the spi_mmc is slow,.. I did a test last nigh having just fitted the board into an itx case dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 | buffer -S1024K -p75 > /dev/nvme0n1 (I'd to find and compile up the buffer srcs) as the default sifive SD card doesn't have it) so it starts out at around 80M/s but rapidly starts to loose speed which I assume for now is some sort of buffer starvation on the mmc side .. it eventually after *6 hou

11:03 <BryceII> finally dropped to a weak 1633K/s

11:04 <BryceII> now is that weak HW or the driver.. I'm half enclined to go dive in the kernel and find teh datasheets to the IO chip

11:05 <BryceII> wel,.. I'm dragging down the last fedora developer image to give that a go and see if that differs as a comparisone

11:05 <BryceII> gonna be a long weekend

11:51 <BryceII> hurm,. ok well I tried generating a fedora SD image using virt-builder but I'm getting garbage out of the serial port. @115200 and @9600 I've tries some of the otehr speeds and I'm not hitting anything usable.

11:51 <BryceII> (this is booting on a sifive unleasehed board)

13:23 <BryceII> does anyone know what thge MSEL dip switchs actually control on the unmatched board? being told 'set MSEL xyz' is all well and good but I'd like to know whatI'm switching on and off

13:36 <BryceII> ah never min it's on page 11 of the getting started guide bit I was thrown by the silk screen saying what was the on/off direction

20:07 <rwmjones> oh wait, we don't have rust on fedora/risc-v ..?

20:27 <rwmjones> davidlt: do you understand why this build failed? http://fedora.riscv.rocks/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1210704 is it because we don't have rust on risc-v? the build system for this package is .. weir

21:48 <BryceII> DEBUG util.py:598: Package rust-packaging-16-1.fc33.riscv64 is already installed.

21:48 <BryceII> indicatif is what needs built I would expect

21:49 <BryceII> <-- will be very upset if this is part of the google plan to pollute the kernel with rust

22:18 <BryceII> ok,... I now have fedora risc-v going

22:19 <BryceII> much mangling 8/
