Operating System: Linux
You will need to cross-compile a toolchain using bootstrap.bash. After you copy it to the arm64 system and set `GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP`, you can build go natively.
## 96Boards HiKey (ARMv8)
Architecture: ARMv8 (64-bit) 8-core, 1.2GHz, 1GB RAM
Operating System: Linux (Linaro)
Go Version: 1.5Beta1
Special Notes: Enable a swap partition (<=1GB is fine). Build process is CPU-intensive and may cause the internal 90C temperature threshold to be exceeded - keep the HiKey cool during the build.
As mentioned above, cross-compile the toolchain (e.g. on Ubuntu AMD64) for ARM64 then transfer over the bootstrap tbz file, untar it, and use that as the `GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP` as well as the `GOROOT`:
```
$ cd go/src
$ GOROOT=/path/to/go/bootstrap
$ GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP=$GOROOT ./all.bash
```
