Tiny core on Eden ulv 500MHz cpu
Stefann:
It gets very off topic from original post, not sure that is a problem.
Anyway, it’s an EDEN ULV 500MHz cpu. Formally that is not i386 because that would be intel. Formally it “supports x86 instruction set”. I included i386 because that is of “comparable power” and nobody knows EDEN.
Anyway
I have Tiny Core already running from booted USB. I can already operate fully headless via VNC, samba and ssh. So I guess concerns on support are not so high now. Need to run it for few continuous days before being sure though.

Sorry - I thought it was some seriously old tech. :)

Ehh….. I guess “my sorry”.
I’m actually used to explaining that my home-control computer is seriously slow. Not comparable to i3-slow versus i7.
Tiny Core forum is clearly a different league.
I bought it in 2008 for about 200euro (approx 200$) as fanless, silent, very low power, mini computer.
Since the DSL to Tinycore upgrade is far from obvious I concluded I would need a “development workstation for testing”.
Wow… I was able to score an amazing double speed, double storage “development workstation” from the local equivalent of eBay for the incredible price of 10euro (10$) ;D ;D
(Hp t510 thin client).
Yes, I’m having fun.

Is the Via Eden CPU in the T510 equivalent to the one in your home control unit? I'm running 32 bit Tiny Core 14.0 on a a T520 - but the T520 is AMD based so maybe not comparable.
Stefann:
Continuation from below thread as it went extremely off topic
https://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,27183.msg174692.html#msg174692
The computer that controls my home and that I’m “in the process of bringing from Damn Small Linux to TinyCore is an Eden ulv 500MHz cpu.
That is 1Watt, 32 bit, single core
Ulv stands for “ultra low voltage” so it does not run fast but is very suitable for “low energy use 24/7 homecontrol system application”.
The HP t510 has a VIA Eden X2 U4200 (1 GHz, 2 cores),
That is 9W, 64 bit
So it uses 9x more power, I don’t want to run this 24/7, but it has 2x speed, 2x cores. So i started using it as my “development workstation” which is a very luxurious title for a 12year old computer that I bought for 10euro (10$) from an eBay equivalent. I run it on 32bit tinycore to be compatible with my target device.
I’m running both computers “headless”. After initial install using monitor/keyboard/mouse I now access them via vnc, ssh and samba from my MacBook.
The hp t520 has a Processor/Chipset
AMD GX-212JC 1.2GHz dual-core SOC APU with AMD Radeon HD Graphics*
This is the one you are using.
It is also 64bit (but of course you can run it on 32bit). It’s from 2014 which is 2 years newer than the 510 so will be faster.
