[[https://www.pcengines.ch/apu.htm|PC Engines APU]] boards are single board computers with 3 Gigabit ethernet ports, a powerful AMD64 APU and Coreboot firmware. !FreedomBox images built for AMD64 machines are tested to work well for [[http://www.pcengines.ch/apu1d.htm|APU1D]] and [[http://www.pcengines.ch/apu3b2.htm|APU3B ]] models and are expected to work also well on the other, very similar versions.
|
|
|
|
'''Important:''' Read [[FreedomBox/Hardware|general advice]] about hardware before building a !FreedomBox with this single board computer.

=== Installation ===
|
|
|
|
!FreedomBox disk [[FreedomBox/Download|images]] for this hardware are available. Follow the instructions on the [[FreedomBox/Download|download]] page to create a !FreedomBox SD card, USB disk, SSD or hard drive and boot into !FreedomBox. Pick the image meant for all amd64 machines.
|
|
|
|
An alternative to downloading these images is to [[InstallingDebianOn/Alix3d2|install Debian]] on the APU and then [[FreedomBox/Hardware/Debian|install FreedomBox]] on it.
|
|
|
|
An [[https://github.com/huubsch/APU-Installation-HomeAssistant-Freedombox|installation manual]] tested on the APU3B is available on GitHub, including flashing with UEFI-BIOS
|
|
|
|
=== Networking ===
|
|
|
|
The first network port, the left most one in the above picture, is configured by !FreedomBox to be an upstream Internet link and the remaining 2 ports are configured for local computers to connect to.
