2. Insert a microSD card in your device

3. Make the script executable: chmod +x flash-it.sh

4. Execute it: ./flash-it.sh

5. Follow the instructions. Some commands in the script require root permissions (for example: mounting and flashing the SD card).

Note: The script will format and flash the SD card, make sure that you don't have any important data on the SD card!
