From the project

A battery powered single board computer capable of running linux

Zenith is a small single board computer made with the RK3328 which comes with 512 MegaBytes of DDR3 RAM. Zenith is built to run on battery backups along with USB Type-C power inputs. Features of zenith are:

- Quad core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU - 512 MB DDR3 RAM - SD support - 100M ethernet - HDMI out - 24 bit audio - 1x USB 3.0 2x USB 2.0

I made this SBC because i wanted to locally host some slack bots. There is literally no other reason. I have not compiled buildroot because i'll be using a prebuilt version from ROCK64. A small reason for this is because my laptop probably cannot handle…
