the team of the Bananian Linux project is pleased to announce the release of Bananian Linux 16.04 for Banana Pi (and family). This update improves mainline Linux kernel support (4.4.x) along with a lot of bugfixes and minor improvements.

We are supporting the Banana Pi, Banana Pi M1+, BPI-R1 and some other A20 boards with just one single image. The Banana Pi M2 requires a separate image which also has been updated. See <https://www.bananian.org/hardware> for more information.

Existing Bananian installations can easily be upgraded without losing any data or settings.
