So, after initially completely missing the point of your email, I'd
actually have a hardware request. This might be an odd one, but I would
like to setup a bare metal testing setup for openQA, which requires a
device that can automatically flash sd cards and insert them into the
system under test. I've been recommended the following board for that:
https://shop.linux-automation.com/usb_sd_mux-D02-R01-V02-C00
I know this is rather special and not an IOT board itself, but it could
be rather useful for automated verification of our iot/arm images
(hopefully to be eventually installed in Adam's test lab). At ~110€
(including shipping), it is unfortunately just a shy too expensive for
me to just order it.
Would this be a possibility? I can also provide you with more details
about what I've got planned here.
Cheers,
Dan
