Last year I was given a tablet that was wrong from factory, only 640k ram, couldn't run 80% of android crap.
Tried and tried, read and read, to break into root so I can install some minimal linux, the only thing I ever got to was running a fake debian (lildebie) crap, X, and LXDE... so fake it was pathetic.
So I gave up. I guess some of them can't be broken.
Very good work, it makes owning one of those things worth while. Android pisses me off more than systemd and windows combined.

Awesome! Few years ago I bought a https://www.solid-run.com/nxp-family/cubox-i/ cubox. Unfortunately they don't update the graphics driver anymore. Not sure what I should get next. But would be cool to put obarun on it. :)
Well done! How have you managed this? What are device and original os?

I was looking for my Cubieboard2 and Cubietruck (A20) a distribution without systemd, but none of them really convinced me. So I came up with an idea, take as a basis Arch ARM distribution, remove completely systemd/libsystemd, compile S6 suite, rebuild/build all necessary softwares coming from Obarun. All the work to be done without breaking the current system and boot until next reboot with S6.ray wroteWell done! How have you managed this? What are device and original os?
A 3 days puzzle, but it's works great since the first S6 boot.
Now is time to hack the obarun-installer with packages review/cleaning and more.
Then next a first lima test - Open-source reverse-engineered driver for Mali-4xx GPUs
Kudo) What is a bootloader? Is it possible to use dd command for installation?
1 Grub Lilo Syslinux are bootloaders
2 The problem is not in running dd but being able to boot something else other than its internal disk so you can put stuff there. Most of them have their true root locked and it will only boot from the manufacturers specified root. You can't just plug a usb stick/disk and boot something else. If you manage to mess with its boot sector and you make a mistake the whole thing is done, it is trash. It doesn't have something like a bios that you can reach and modify settings, or it does but it is the whole trick to get to it. This is for most chinese smart-phones and tablets.

A step forward
As you can see, it's ObarunS6-ARM running PHP and Nginx on Cubieboard2.
It's not ready for production, still a lot of work to do.

flameshot works? it's dead for me, did you do something to it?

I would have to do some research in my work. This is a version built for Armv7h.Nic wroteflameshot works? it's dead for me, did you do something to it?
