I bought a One Plus 6 device to test #Linux on #mobile (#PostmarketOS).

Followed the steps in the manual for installation and now stuck in fastboot mode. reading stuff on the interwebz indicates that I may have had the wrong firmware version, but updating the firmware is also failing. Kind of stuck until I find (much) more time to work through this thing. i.e. Sunday.

I dream of the day when I can daily drive Linux on the phone, and the installation is quick and easy.

@haskman so @matthewcroughan is really getting there with his setups. Hopefully, since they're based on nixos, the hardware will some day be a set of arguments for a function which returns the correct firmware.

Yup! I still need to make a video on it, it's in the pipeline!
