Public builds available for Raspberry Pi 4 based on Sisyphus

Just up community mailing lists ALT passed the news of public accessibility first builds for low cost affordable single board computers Raspberry pi 4 based on free software repository sisyphus. Prefix regular in the build name means that now it will be produced on a regular basis according to the current state of the repository. In fact, prototypes have already been presented to the public recently on the sidelines conference OSSDEVCON-2019 in Kaluga. The author had a chance to personally verify that the performance of the desktop on the RPi4 already meets the assessment of "comfortable enough". Moreover, I was pleasantly surprised by the ability of the single-board board to not overheat in the absence of active cooling and even radiators - the chips felt warm, but not hot. Obviously, for more serious tasks, high-quality power and cooling will still be needed, nevertheless, the result is still impressive.

Builds based on Sisyphus, as well as stable p9 branches (the architecture of the older RPi models is designated as aarch64 in them) already work on the Raspberry Pi 3 V and B + models, respectively, with their hardware capabilities. Installation and launch instructions also publicly available. We look forward to starting the build for RPi4 official distributions of the Alt family.
