Reviving Cubox with Arch Linux ARM

I decided it was time to try and revive my old Cubox that has been lying around unused for a very long time. Back then it was running a custom Armbian (Debian for ARM) release from SolidRun, but SolidRun have long since abandoned the old Cubox and deleted all content from their servers. In this tutorial I'll share how I got the Cubox up and running again with the latest Linux kernel. It is currently working as a small backup server running two USB harddrives in a Btrfs mirror. https://unixsheikh.com/tutorials/reviving-cubox-with-arch-linux-arm.html
