Installation
CAUTION: Flashing any image with antirollback index lower than 4 (Android 8 or lower, for example) could potentially brick your device due to Anti-rollback protection. See a related XDA Developers post for more information. |
Here's how to boot pmOS via fastboot:
- Install to a SD card with
pmbootstrap install --sdcard=/dev/sdX
- Insert the SD card into the device
- Connect the device to your PC
- Enter the fastboot mode
- In order to boot an image with fastboot, an 8-Kb image of zeros should be flashed to the
antirbpass
partition every time we want to usepmbootstrap flasher boot
orfastboot boot
. Create an image if you haven't done that already:$ dd if=/dev/zero of=dummy.img bs=8K count=1
- Flash the freshly created
dummy.img
to theantirbpass
partition:$ fastboot flash antirbpass dummy.img
- Finally, boot pmOS:
$ pmbootstrap flasher boot
