Kali Linux is an open-source, Debian-based Linux distribution geared towards various information security tasks, such as Penetration Testing, Security Research, Computer Forensics and Reverse Engineering.

An enthusiast from the community has posted his custom mirror and shell. It looks very retro and I guess Radxa users will like it!

ReDroid (Remote anDroid) is a GPU accelerated AIC (Android In Cloud) solution. You can boot many instances in Linux host (Docker, podman, k8s etc.). redroid supports both arm64 and amd64 architectures. ReDroid is suitable for Cloud Gaming, Virtualise Phones, Automation Test and more.

First of all, the kernel should ensure that ANDROID_BINDERFS, ASHMEM, PSI are enabled.
Refer to archwikianbox page use binderfs way to open support, ashmem do not know why can not be added as a module, here directly enable.
scripts/config --enable CONFIG_ASHMEM scripts/config --enable CONFIG_ANDROID scripts/config --enable CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC scripts/config --enable CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDERFS scripts/config --set-str CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_DEVICES "" scripts/config --enable CONFIG_PSI
Write the kernel parameters according to the wiki and mount binderfs.

Dear ROCK Pi Community
We are very happy to announce the ROCK Pi SATA HAT, a series of SATA expansion targeting at the NAS solution for Raspberry Pi 4 and ROCK Pi 4. The ROCK Pi SATA HATs come in 3 models:
The Dual/Quad SATA HAT utilize the USB3 buses on Raspberry Pi 4 or ROCK Pi 4, it has the following features:
For 3.5 inch HDD, a standard ATX PSU is required to power the HDD and the Raspberry PI itself. With 4 3.5inch HDDs, the PSU should be 60W or more.
For 2.5 inch HDDs, you can just use the USB PD/QC power adapter(30W power adapter is enough) to power the HDD/SSD and the Raspberry Pi 4 itself.
Quad SATA HAT utilizes two high performance JMS561(one JMS561 for Dual SATA HAT) providing up to 400MB/s reading/writing performance with four disks in RAID0 mode.
The penta SATA HAT utilize the M.2/PCIe on ROCK Pi 4 to expand to up 5x SATA ports, it works only for ROCK Pi 4. We adapt four internal SATA and one eSATA design which makes the connection flexible if the user wants to use external disks.
To make full use of the 5th SATA, we have implemented an eSATA connector, which can be exported out of the case. The eSATA provides both data and power with a single cable, it can directly drive the 3.5 inch HDD.
The Penta SATA HAT is powered by the JMB585 with 2 lanes 5Gbs PCIe buses with up to 10Gbps bandwidth. With 5 SSD attached in RAID0 mode, we can achieve up to 803MB/s speed.
To monitor the HDDs and showing some basic info for the HDDs, we have designed a Top Board, which provides Fan Control, IP address info and a button for Powering Off or customer functions. A flex cable connects from the SATA HAT to the top board.
We have provided a Debian package for the SATA HAT control and monitoring. Raspberry Pi 4 or ROCK Pi 4 users can install the package with one line following command:
To make the live easy and better looking, we have designed a full metal case for SATA HAT with Raspberry Pi, which can hold up to four 2.5 inch HDD and the top board.
Dear ROCK Pi community,
About half an year ago, we introduced the first ROCK Pi 4 and we get a lot of feedback from different customers since then. We appreciate all the suggestions, contribution and criticism from the community. Now we are very excited to annouce the recent work from Radxa Team that you might be interested.
We are happy to announce the minor hardware updates for ROCK Pi 4. The updates fixes some outstanding issues from the current ROCK Pi 4 users and also includes some minor improvements.
The major update that many users care about and even the main reason they buy ROCK Pi 4 is the NVMe support. ROCK Pi 4 model A is the lowest cost SBC you can buy with NVMe support on the market. We have now included a 4MB SPI flash on the new v1.4 boards. We have reduced the size of the image so 4MB flash can just include the first stage loader, u-boot and trust image. To support SPI directly boot into NVMe. We ported the RK3399 PCIe driver to u-boot and enabled the boot chain. Android is also supported for NVMe booting, which will come in later release.
Other minor changes includes:
The ROCK Pi PoE HAT is the accessory many users been waiting long. It takes so long time because we have completed re-designed the it after the first batch of prototypes sent out to some community users for testing. The new ROCK Pi PoE HAT looks cleaner by hiding the big transistor in the bottom. Optimized circuit plus the new added fan helps reducing the temperature, it drops from the peak 100°C to now below 40°C.
rockpi4-poe with service for automatically adjust the fan speed by temperature which you can install from Radxa APT.
The eMMC reader is another accessory we designed for ourselves and the developers who need to write images on eMMC module freqently. It's just fast and reduces the image writing time a lot, much more handy than the eMMC to uSD adapter.
Real life usage example:
time sh -c 'sudo dd if=rockpi4b-ubuntu-bionic-minimal-20190104_2101-gpt.img of=/dev/sdd bs=4M status=progress && sync'

ROCK Pi S is the new little board of ROCK Pi family for the IoT and Audio applications. We designed it based on the new Rockchip RK3308 processor. We like the RK3308 very much because it's a low cost 64bit processor capable of running Linux with a lot of potentials. The features for ROCK Pi S includes:
The first batch of ROCK Pi S are tested and proves working all well. We still have some samples in the office. Debian and buildroot is currently supported on ROCK Pi S. If you are intested in developing on ROCK Pi S or want to evaluate it for your project. You can cantact us.
