## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is include in the price?**
A: The ODROID-XU4, heatsink with cooling fan, and 5V/4A US Power Supply are included in the price. You will still need boot media to start it, and that can be downloaded from the downloads page at odroid.com and written to a microSD card or eMMC module (available separately).

**Q: Will this run Debian Jessie like the RPi3?**
A: This system is not for newbies. It appears to be a stripped down version of Debian Jessie and is a little frustrating. Should come with a display desktop that would allow people to get on the internet through the CAT5 plug which it doesn't.
The Ubuntu 16.4 is a little better. But downloading the image, it starts with user root, then password 1234. The file is write protected and when you start an adduser it comes up with an error instead of the generated user.
The author claims most of this is poorly copied images onto the card. So use a new card . . . I find that to be a cope out. There should be an easy bypass that allows you to fix the write protection and proceed which there isn't.
I got as far as a user with Debian Jessie. They did not include sudo. Meaning to get root privileges you simply go su. Then odroid as a password will get you administration privileges.
startx did not work. Did an update and it still didn't work. Tried installing a desktop. That did not work. startx still did not work.
This machine does have a faulty switch that takes a little manipulation to switch between sd and emmc.
I guess it is soldiered in wrong. Once it switches it is good.
Potentially given a real version of Pixel, this machine potentially would be a best seller. IF they take away the programming mafia and make it good for newbies to use.
Sure there are a good number of excellent programmers out there. Take a lesson from Microsoft and make it usable for the average person out there.
Take a lesson from Raspberry Pi people and have a little patience with amateurs. (I am sure that if respectable answers were given the unit would be a success.)
Potentially with a little bit of quality control this unit could be a best seller and replace the Raspberry for those of us want a little bit more.
That means money in the pocket of those that build this unit. It shouldn't be this difficult with this many roadblocks.
The Raspberry Pi is not as fast. But it is reliable.

**Q: Does the xu4 have wifi capabilities built in?**
A: No.

**Q: would this be able to run tails OS?**
A: Only if Tails OS offers an ARM distribution or the ability to compile on ARM. From a quick perusal of their website, it doesn't look like it right now.
