Installation
The easiest way for now is to use the Flash Tool from official flashing guide, replacing linux.img in the firmware package with planet-geminipda.img and linux_boot.img with boot.img-planet-geminipda.
The device package also includes an initramfs hook, which will try to mount the userdata and linux partitions, looking for a /postmarketOS.img file (exported as planet-geminipda.img). This can be used for non-intrusive installation. That Image file needs to be expanded to the wanted size in advance, for example:
% truncate -s 2G postmarketOS.img
