Hi,
is it exist cheap ~$60 SBC in X86-64 ??
No thank you for Rapsberry PI
I used Raspberry PI SBC for a while now.
But it’s really hard to found a Linux distribution that support
- RPI (arm64)
- sysVinit 💖
- And that I like
Please don’t bring systemD in this discussion thanks.

Have you tried MX Linux? It is based on Debian, they have a distro for RPI, and they have no systemd
