Title: Possibilty to flash only Debian
Post by: morty on June 28, 2018, 03:11:16 pm

Hey,

I have a Wifi only Device and no interest in Android. So my questions is, is there a way to Flash Debian only?
Also if anybody knows, the boot loader. Is it complete own planetcom one, a android based one or a customized u-boot loader?

Also thanks Backers to make a small dream come true.

Yes it is possible !
You just have to allocate all the space for linux (with the slider) with the partition tool (--> http://support.planetcom.co.uk/partitionTool.html) (http://support.planetcom.co.uk/partitionTool.html)).
And then just follow the linux-flashing-guide (--> http://support.planetcom.co.uk/index.php/L...Flashing_Guide) (http://support.planetcom.co.uk/index.php/Linux_Flashing_Guide)) and you're golden.
Good Luck !

P.S.: you also have to select linux for Boot 1 option... but that's a given XD
