for anyone who's interested, i've published the PDFs of both the
8-layer PCB and the schematics. i'm also documenting resources for
installing mainline u-boot and linux kernel on the RK3288 firefly
(t-firefly kindly sent me a developer board). apparently there are
people who have installed debian stable on the firefly (for headless
use) out-of-the-box, which is a really good sign.
the RK3288 because it's a slightly older SoC which was used in the
Asus C201 chromebook, it seems to have extremely prolific "HOWTOs" out
there, as well as stable support in the official chromium kernel
releases and a stack-load more.
the only thing which is a complete utter pain: the 2nd USB controller
(not the one that provides both 1 USB and 1 OTG port) has at least two
known hardware bugs. first is: it doesn't support USB 1.1 devices
(argh...) and second it doesn't come back up on resume.
fortunately the *other* USB controller - the one that has 1 USB2 Host
and 1 OTG port - works perfectly. on the firefly rk3288, i tried the
OTG Host converter cables i have, plugged in a USB keyboard, up it
came first time.
i think the RK3288 would be an awesome choice for EOMA68, not least
because it can do 4GB RAM.

CE markings

A colleague of a friend of mine had problems getting some electronics
without CE marking through customs. Let me ask just to be on the safe
side: I presume the EOMA68-A20 and casings will have CE markings as
appropriate?
