A lot of images don't boot . 
For example: Retropie, Fedora, Openelec, Libreelec, Android 4.4, Puppy
This images boot only: BerryWebServer, Openmediavault, NOS-Ps, Screenly, Ubuntu core.
I don't try the Debian and the Arch image .
Somebody know release date the newer kernel?
Now I'm seeing in the sunxi forum that the a83t is in the core stuff.
