    Nice!

    Are you using the actual hardware, or QEMU?


I only have QEMU available, unfortunately.

Just providing some context, since I'm listed as maintainer: This board was going to be removed some time ago, but was resurrected specifically to work with QEMU. The "virt" board, at least at that time, did not support some key ARM features that we need in our testing, such as SD cards and Flash. Hence we opted to keep this board around. So compatibility with hardware is not important to us at least, unless someone else is requesting it.
