How to enter flash mode

The RG35XX SP boots from the OS stored on the microSD in first slot, labelled "TF/INT".

Installation

Using pmbootstrap

Follow Installation/Using pmbootstrap. When asked for the device's vendor/codename, select anbernic as the vendor and rg35xx-sp as the codename.

To flash the image to the device:

  • Flash the image to a microSD and insert it into the first slot. (pmbootstrap install --sdcard=/dev/sdX)

As the RG35XX SP only has 1GB of RAM, it is highly recommended to setup a Swapfile to have a usable experience.
