How would you back up the eMMC? Would you boot from SD and then copy the eMMC's contents?
Yeah I assumed (key word) the flashing of images would be trivial. I did have to open mine up/use reset/disconnect the eMMC. Flip the switch (mine is a different switch which is interesting). I think those didn't really matter... it was just the boot was messed up (what Kali/Armbian/PostmarketOS fixed). I later found out about the LED lights being software lit, so it's hard to tell if the PBP is doing anything.
Do you know of a Manjaro image somewhere that works where I can flash it onto SD by balena etcher and then overwrite the eMMC content with it?
I would like to get Armbian to work (for apt/debian) ... but I read in another thread that the devs (or a dev) are not really trying to support it.
Yeah I don't really understand desktop environments enough is that suggesting that you would be able to change the package manager by doing that? I thought the issue with certain software not working with PostmarketOS/Alpine is this musl/libc thing.
I'll keep experimenting with it.
I really like the body of the laptop (sleek type) and the display is great. Physically only thing that could be better is the track pad. Regarding the laptop's body, the plastic is very flimsy without the bottom metal case which is mentioned in the wiki.
I'm going to see about battery life and what not, I used to obsess over that messing with cpu-freq utils.
