I was gifted a Radxa many years ago... And it looked like a lot of work to bring things up on it, not least because the boot loader was weird to even get started with uboot, and the uboot you needed was a fork of an ancient branch of upstream uboot. Tha AmLogic datasheets at the time were unobtanium, but have since become findable (I'm told by someone I chatted about the Radxa at I think BSDcan over beers before covid). I gave up due to the large amount of work it would have been to translate everything from just the Linux sources.
