Parabuntu 2018.11.20

[Min]

Upgrade to Ubuntu Base 18.04 LTS. e-SDK works on Parallella board.
No desktop environment for hdmi version. epython seems not working.
Other than these, it's almost the same as Parabuntu 2016.11.1.

Hey, that's great news! Have you built and ran the epiphany examples and test programs?

What needs to happen to the e-SDK? I thought you said all the examples and tests compile and run?

Last entry in the changelog for e-gcc was on 2016-10-27 by Ola Jeppsson. I'm on gcc-7 here. I would imagine porting the epiphany code up two major versions of gcc would be quite a project. Maybe Ola could shed some light on what might need to be done.

The img of the Unofficial Release <<Parabuntu 2018.11.20>>, parallella_e16_hdmi_gpiose_7010.img.gz, does work on my board

eSDK2016.11 doesn't work with eLink cluster of Parallellas.

Thank you very much
