Hi there,
Here is a testing ALARM image for the Radxa Zero:

You’ll need at least a 4Gb sdcard. I had to reserve some space after the second partition in order to have this image working and I don’t figure out why for now.
Don’t forget to expand the ext4 partition before using the OS !
To be honest, I cheated a lot to make this image
Steps to make this image:
- I took the Latest Manjaro image (https://github.com/manjaro-arm/radxa-zero-images/releases/download/22.02/Manjaro-ARM-minimal-radxa-zero-22.02.img.xz)
- kept the VFAT partition and remove the dtbs that are not the radxa zero
- replace the manjaro kernel with the one I compiled for the Alpine 3.15
- format the ext4 partition, uncompressed and adapt the generic ALARMv8 image there (https://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv8/generic).
- recompile an initramfs and replace the manjaro one on the vfat partition
- And voilà !
Yeah I know it’s a bad move to merge manjaro and archilinux stuff but still, it seems to work for now.
- What is working:
- Since it’s the very first version, I did not made thorough tests and unfortunately I don’t have enough time
- The wlan0 interface is showing up without running rmmod and modprobe, which is promising (I’ll test at least this, I think)
- What is not working:
- If someone does some tests, I’ll happy to edit this and help him/us to improve this image.
