Re: [crosstool-ng/crosstool-ng] bc9ed3: Adds Raspberry Pi 3 sample config

Hi Bryan,

I did test this, but at this time thereâs (to my knowledge) no os images available which supports 64 bit. Mine came with 32 bit raspbian,

The chip is capable of running in both 32/64 bit mode - but 64 bit must come down the road as software becomes available.

Best regards,
Stefan Mulvad
