David as with the Duet3 6HC will the mini come with a SD Card setup for SBC use?
Can't wait to get my hands on one to replace the Wifi in the Delta.

Yes, in theory it will work with exactly the same SD card because newer boards will ship with a config that simply points directly to the configurator and has no default config

I was thinking more for the PI tony not standalone? Although it won't be hard to generate one from scratch

@dc42 how to sign for a pre production board?

T3P3Tony

@Dougal1957 yep, the SD cards should be dual boot, both stand alone and Pi

T3P3Tony

@weed2all we will be supplying them via resellers and directly through the website

Is there any estimation in terms of releasing? or still before x-mas?

Just to clarify, we expect to have almost 300 pre-production boards early in December, so there should be enough for those who want to try them. We are hopeful that these boards will pass the relevant CE approval tests, but we can't guarantee this because so far we have only run some of these tests (the ones most likely to fail) and on a previous PCB revision. That's why we are calling them pre-production boards. If the boards do pass CE testing then we will be able to do the first production run in January.

@poohzaza we won't be running a pre-order for those. They will be for sale our website and hopefully some resellers as well.

You sell on your website ? I see you don't sell anything, everything is out of stock with Covid
