Long answer - maybe, but only if you recompile the OpenWrT and Canaan A8 source files to run in Winbloz. Good luck with that.... Title: Re: Avalon 841 controller by windows? Post by: HagssFIN on April 27, 2020, 09:12:06 PM What would even be the benefit in this kind of a scenario?

The "controller" is just a Raspberry Pi. You can run a 1 or 2 or 3 overall the cost of getting one vs. the time and aggravation of getting it to work on Windows is not going to be worth it. What would even be the benefit in this kind of a scenario? Probably none, unless you have an old computer sitting around but don't have a Pi handy. Stay safe. -Dave |
