      @petersen77 i got around this with installing exfat-progs and exfatfuse i think, after installing i needed to create a symlink like this "sudo ln -s /usr/sbin/mount.exfat-fuse /sbin/mount.exfat"

      https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/607949/cannot-mount-exfat-even-installed-exfat-fuse-exfat-utils-in-kali-linux

      but yeah being able to compile the kernel or have this and some other features (vpn, filesystem encryption) in the kernel from the beginning for example would be better

          I boot from ubuntu 24.04 hdmi and usb 2.0 works. Usbc wi-fi and lcd do not work. This image not for laptop. Latest kernel source not for laptop too.

            Use the following command to generate a deb file and then install it.

            ./build-kernel.sh arm64

              @george said in Cool Pi Cm5-Laptop Linux Quick Start Guide:

              Use the following command to generate a deb file and then install it.

              It was hard. Now it works but without wi-fi and sound

              How to install mainline kernel 6.18?

                @george Can't finish the job. Btrfs module keeps sending an error when building the modules. The script doesn't finish.

                    @mainbord same here, sadly Armbian isnt booting or else i would already be using it instead of the supplied distros

                      The official default configuration of ARMBIN's loadaddr and optee conflicts and needs to be modified to 0x200000

                        @george is this true even for the community made Genbook build?

                              TYPEC is only related to DTS, and the main issue with the sound card is Tinymix configuration.
