How to flash MIUI Fastboot ROM from Linux

How to flash MIUI Fastboot ROM from Linux

  • Download the fastboot ROM suitable for your device from the XM Firmware Updater and extract the downloaded archive
  • Download and extract the official Android SDK Platform Tools or install them using your package manager of choice.
    • If you are using the official platform tools, make sure adb and fastboot (components of platform-tools) are in your path

Simple Arch Linux Installation from scratch in the command line ("The Arch Way")

Arch Linux Installation

1. Download the image and liveboot

The images can be found at https://www.archlinux.org/download/

The image can be flashed onto a USB with any software (like balenaEtcher or simply dd) or burned to a CD/DVD.

Boot the image device (via BIOS preferrably as it is that bit easier to setup than UEFI and makes no difference otherwise)

Registering a FIDO2 key to unlock a LUKS2 drive & lock system on unplug

This guide is based off some articles from Fedora Magazine by Alexander Wellbrock. What you see here brings together information from multiple articles to give this one specific use-case succinctly and contiguously in one guide.

Note

While this guide is specific to Fedora and it's EL derivatives, it can easily be adjusted to other distributions by substituting commands and packages as necessary (i.e. On Debian derivatives, swap DNF for apt)

Install dependencies:

[…]$ sudo dnf install fido2-tools dracut

Note

Lolinet's storage is sorted by the phones year of production and region. There is a description in each year's folder which will show you the codename/folder for each phone in that production year. You might want to stick to the Retail ROMs (starting with RET), either Global (RETAIL) or specific for your region (RETAPAC for Asia-Pacific) to help avoid carrier specific apps etc.
