KDE Install on new Pinebook, howto?

[xbcsmith]

This is what I am going to try. I am in the process so YMMV

Use this info to figure out which mirror downloads the fastest https://files.kde.org/neon/images/pinebo...mirrorlist 


IMAGE_URL=https://files.kde.org/neon/images/pinebook-remix-nonfree/useredition/20181028-1500/neon-pinebook-remix-useredition-20181028-1500-arm64-1080p.img.gz

Booted from the sd card.

Code:

umount -f /dev/mmcblk1*

curl -L -f "$IMAGE_URL" | gzip -d | dd bs=30M of=/dev/mmcblk1

sync

Also would like to point out that pine64_install_to_eMMC.sh is an ayufan script. It will not work with the KDE Neon remix

Update this worked for me. (I didn't like the dd from curl as I wanted to verify the chksum...)

curl -kO http://mirror.cc.columbia.edu/pub/softwa...80p.img.gz

cat neon-pinebook-remix-useredition-20181028-1500-arm64-1080p.img.gz | gzip -d | dd bs=24M of=/dev/mmcblk1

* remove sd card and reboot
