openFyde prebuilt image - khadas edge2

TL;DR:

This is the prebuilt image for the edge2-openfyde board under the openFyde project.

How To Install:

-OOWOW

Download the image compressed file then copy it to USB storage (without uncompressing) in ext4/exFAT format.

Install it to edge2 EMMC by OOWOW.

-Via USB

The format of image which RKDevTool requires differs from the image we provided below. You need to make the image by yourself.
Do not directly flash the image we provided.

# uncompress the edge2-openfyde-r108.img.xz
git clone https://github.com/openfyde/rk3588-image-maker
cd rk3588-image-maker
./map_chromiumos_image.sh <path of edge2-openfyde-r108.img> --board khadas-edge2
sudo ./rk3588-mkupdate.sh

After the above commands, the update.img will be in the current directory.
You can flash it to EMMC by following the official guide or RKDevTool.

-microSD flush(Unrecomended):

You can flash the image to your TF card and it can boot up. However, openfyde, this OS requires high-speed IO and stable storage.
In other words, the OS may behave abnormally and even can't boot when besides in low-end microSD.
