Hello
There are several options:
nanopi2-debian-sd4g.img.zip Debian image files(there are two Debian files)
nanopi2-debian-sd4g.img.zip Debian image files(there are two Debian files)
nanopi2-ubuntucore-with-qt-embedded-sd4g.img.zip Ubuntu core image files with Qt-Embedded 4.8.6 GUI
Which one should I use? And why?
Regards.

If you need XWindow, install Debian, if you don't need XWindow, just want a minimal Linux basic system, install Ubuntu core

I don't know what is XWindow. But I see there is a version with QT-Embeded and I want to develop Linux-embedded systems. It seems like a good choice. I want to get data from USB and connect WIFI module. I also want to control peripheral like UART, SPI, I2C. The version with QT-Embeded can cover these demands. I mean do we have all necessary libraries in QT-Embeded ?

Hi,
Debian system has graphical interface,but if you donot need graphical interface you just need to use UbuntuCore firmware. They use the same kernel.
