But wait, there's more:

cbxi4pro-armhf-rb.debian.net:
Cubox-i4pro, quad-core, 2GB ram, ~50GB SATA SSD
ssh port: 2226
ssh fingerprints: 
- 2048 74:e0:b4:50:04:ce:10:b0:e3:91:d9:fd:42:b2:2b:a3 (RSA)
- 256 62:9d:f3:d0:25:87:22:d3:73:43:5d:4a:98:5a:6c:f8 (ECDSA)

Hrm. No idea on that one...

It is considerably more capable, sure. The individual cores on the
Banana PI might be a little more powerful, but the extra ram and extra
cores on the wandboard-quad and cubox-i4pro surely make up for that.

I don't know what "dbd" is...

For starters, I'm not sure it's worth the extra complication to build on
another host, though that does obviously check for reproducibility
issues that might encode build machine-specific info...


live well,
