This repository hosts patched mainline kernels for RK3288 built using RockMyy.

Some knowledge about your system bootloader configuration is required. Generally, the bootloader is configured through /boot/extlinux.conf but that can change. Just read the documentation of your distribution if you don't know how to install a new kernel manually.

BACKUP YOUR /boot FOLDER BEFORE. And prepare an UART cable, just in case things go terribly wrong.

To use it on your RK3288 board (ASUS Tinkerboard, MiQi, Firefly, ...) :

• clone this project
• copy lib/* into your board /lib/ directory
• copy usr/* into your board /usr/ directory
• copy boot/* into your board /boot/ folder

And then configure your bootloader so that it :

• boots the /boot/zImage
• uses the DTB file appropriate for your board

Appropriate DTB files being :

• rk3288-miqi.dtb for MQMaker MiQi boards
• rk3288-tinkerboard.dtb for ASUS Tinkerboard boards
• rk3288-firefly.dtb for Firefly boards
• rk3288-firefly-reload.dtb for Firefly Reload boards

This roughly equates to :

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Miouyouyou/RockMyy-Build &&
cd RockMyy-Build &&
chown root:root -R * &&
cp boot/* /boot/ &&
cp -r lib/* /lib/ &&
cp -r usr/* /usr/

If your bootloader is configured to boot /boot/zImage with the appropriate /boot/rk3288-???.dtb file, just reboot and enjoy your new kernel.

Armbian currently provide premade Debian packages of kernels for Rockchip systems including most of the patches included here.
