hi<br>
I'm very excited about this. We've been wanting to release a
universal arm image of sonar, which in case you're not familiar with
it is a version of manjaro with speech, high contrast, an on screen
keyboard, etc enabled for those that need it. Are you planning to
eventually make arm a supported architecture of manjaro or will it
always be a separate project?<br>
Thanks<br>

<div>I have been quite busy with this Manjaro-Arm, of course for
now I have only been building with armv7h as I only have a
Raspberry Pi 2 to play with. A friend is going to be sending me
some beagleboards to help with development soon so I can start
that as well. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have forked Manjaro repos to a manjaro-arm github [1] and
started building. Surprisingly, it has mostly gone very smooth.
Most of the {extra} packages have built with the exception of 10
or so that might not be needed, see issues for more information.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have also went ahead and got manjaro-arm.org [2] domain
that can be transfered later if it should ever come to that. I
also have a repo and a wiki set up at that domain [3][4]. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As far as the project goes, we have a kernel and most the
packages built (just now starting on community) I have built a
base off of the archlinux-arm's version with our kernel and xfce
packages to make a tar that we have been using.[5] It will boot
with very Manjaro-themed xfce with ssh access and vnc access.
[see images]. Pamac works great and I havent come across any
serious issues with it just yet.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have run into build errors with pacman so I am still using
archlinux's but with a quick mirrorlist change it works fine
with my repo. Once pacman is built, I think I can get mhwd and
manjaro-settings all built and working properly (mhwd might be
pointless on an embedded device except for wifi/eth adapters)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My major hurdle right now is setting up boxit so that we can
still pull from archlinux cleanly. I know Phil, you said that
you wouldn't mind giving us a quick rundown of how to use it and
that would be amazing I tried messing with it but couldnt figure
out if I needed boxit-server or anything like that. Once this is
done, we can begin setting up a true Manjaro system ready for
some fine tuning. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Any help you can give us Phil would be very much appreciated.</div>
