Gemini PDA - Linux / Re: Working UBports (Ubuntu Touch) Focal for the Gemini PDA by NotKit
« on: August 16, 2025, 08:49:10 am »
Hello, I've recently been considering trying out UBports, but I'm not sure where to start. Could you provide a more detailed explanation of the specific steps involved? Here's my understanding so far:
1. I need to first flash my device to Android 8.1 (boot1) + Gemian (boot2).
2. Download and extract the files to obtain ubuntu.img and boot.img.
3. The ubuntu.img needs to be placed in the root directory of Gemian.
4. Execute the following command in Gemian: `cat boot.img > /dev/disk/by-partlabel/boot3`.
5. Finally, restart the device to boot from boot3.
Is this correct? Can it be flashed to the boot1 partition? Can I keep only UBports if I don't need Android and Gemian?
Looking forward to your reply.
