Operating Systems

The PineTab will automatically boot from microSD if a bootable card is inserted. Although it is technically possible to use any ARM distro (because the PineTab uses the mainline kernel), there are a few that are designed specifically for phones and tablets:

• UBPorts
• postmarketOS
• Arch Linux ARM

UBPorts

The UBPorts jenkins daily build can be downloaded here

postmarketOS

postmarketOS is a preconfigured version of Alpine Linux for mobile devices. The latest builds can be downloaded from the images page to be flashed to the PineTab.

More information is available at postmarketos.org and on their dedicated PineTab wiki page.

Arch Linux ARM

Arch Linux ARM with LXQt built by Danct12 can be downloaded here
