Installing r2kaw and Tow-Boot to the SPI

[dukla2000]

I was under the impression that rk2aw was a loader for boot-loaders.
When you flash rk2aw to the SPI and there are no boot-loaders present on the SPI, eMMC, and microSD, rk2aw won't do anything.
...

Yes it is. But if you install it as per the multiboot instructions I first linked above it also installs uboot. (use sudo ./spinor-flash-initial-setup.sh ). Thereafter sudo ./rk2aw-spi-flasher with no parameters will report what is there as per this copy/paste (I wrote the eMMC section of that page!)

How do you like Arch on the PPP?

My real poison is SXMO - love it. On arch or pmOS is pretty much the same: I just updated my signature and have arch on my PPP as it does not reboot randomly and has 6.12 kernel. (I am sure pmOS will be 6.12 on the PPP very shortly if not already in edge.) Arch is always quirky: at the moment wpa-supplicant and conky require exceptional TLC. But that is the pain/pleasure of arch ;-) Also arch is still SXMO 1.16 whereas pmOS is 1.17 (hardly game changer but I do tend to be a latest revision freak!)

Have pmOS on my PP which kinda makes sense as the PP is soo short of horsepower. And on PP it is 6.12 kernel already.
