Hi all,
I got a Magical MX2 box with g18ref board. Searched these forums but could not find the info on how to activate multiboot. What is the procedure?
I tried to boot the image Armbian_20.09_Aml-s812_bullseye_current_5.9.0-rc7_desktop.img written to SD card with Balena Etcher but the box boots straight into Android.
Tried to press the reset button during boot, but it boots into Android recovery.
My goal is to use this box as a Linux-based typewriter with email and some very basic browsing, so I am tempted to try Armbian.
Appreciate any help you could provide! I have tons of desktop Linux experience but none with Android or mediaboxes.
I absolutely do not care about Android on this box. If it is wiped out completely - it is fine. If I cannot boot into Android - it is fine. The only thing that matters is getting Linux desktop up and running.
Also, I have Bell Arris VIP2262 box w/o OS (scavenged HDD from it long time ago). If anyone has any idea how to flash it into Linux or FreeBSD, I would be in debt to you forever! Very much interested in running a MIPS box.
