TheLeoDeveloper Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 I want to install linux on rkm mk12 tv box because its pretty much useless with its ancient android and i want to use it as a server mainly alongside my raspberry pis, now i tried to do some research but guides and forum posts are very few and outdated so can anybody help me and tell me what steps do i need to do to install linux on this tv box? Also its powered by an amlogic s812 soc, full specs can be found on this website: https://hometheatrelife.com/rikomagic-mk12-review/ Thanks in advance!

SteeMan Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 I'm going to point you to the following two FAQ posts: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/16976-status-of-armbian-on-tv-boxes-please-read-first https://forum.armbian.com/topic/17106-installation-instructions-for-tv-boxes-with-amlogic-cpus But then tell you that no one has worked on s8xx cpu TV box builds for years around here. So digging through the archives for some build that is a couple of years old will be your best bet, but it won't get any kernel updates, so you will be stuck on whatever version of the kernel you might get running.
