Note that the occasional core dump is very rare. I managed to build large parts of world on the device. I wonder what the cause is. I would like to see if I get similar dumps on my Pine64, but on the Pine64 neither the card-reader nor the USB work. I saw an additional patch from Andrew for the SD-card reader which is not in my tree, but have not tried that yet. Thanks for trying this Odroid-C2 build. The Odroid-C2 is really a nice little device.
