What works

  • Compiling the kernel
  • Flashing pmos + kernel
  • Telnet into it, fill in passphrase for decrypting system and get into SSH (only with prebuilt kernel)

Current status

It is possible now to flash pmos + kernel and boot into it. However, for the moment we cannot telnet into the system. Dmesg of the host system says: the host system cannot enumerate the USB.

But when using the TWRP boot image and replacing its ramdisk with the pmos one we can telnet into the system (in other words our custom built kernel does not work). Replacing the initramfs in the TWRP boot image can be done like so: $ abootimg -u boot.img -r initramfs


Other information

  • When red leds are flashing, offsets are wrong
  • LineageOS boot.img is far larger because the recovery is inside it
