Atom cpu boards are hard to find and they are expensive.
I am considering buying the newer Celeron (J1800 and J1900 CPUs) based
mini ITX boards from Biostar/Gigabyte. Reading the reviews on
various e-stores, people have faced issues installing the OS.
Please share your Linux experience in case you have installed Linux on
these boards.
TIA

Hello,
I had been involved in a project to bring about positive social change
in non-urban regions.
That project had been nixed due to issues beyond my control (back then),
but is now being revived.
For that project, I need a highly customized GNU/Linux distribution
possessing the following characteristics;

This is a non-Government, non-profit project, if anyone is interested in
building the same, all that can be offered is credit where due.
If interested, please get in touch with me, either on the list or off
it.
Thanks,
