Installing Megi's pre-compiled kernel

First, download the the PinePhone CE (1.2) Kernel:

# wget https://xff.cz/kernels/5.8/pp2.tar.gz


Extract the kernel:

Create a separate folder for organization and separation: Extract the a "tar" "gz" file using tar.

# tar -zxvf pp2.tar.gz 

A default Mobian Installation looks like this:

Device     Boot  Start     End Sectors   Size Id Type
/dev/sda1  *      1953  250000  248048 121.1M 83 Linux
/dev/sda2       250001 7421874 7171874   3.4G 83 Linux

Notice the small size on the /boot partition.

This means we probably will have to, either kill the partition or resize both partitions:

Easiest thing to do:

Please all all the new files on the /dev/sda2 (they'll probably be more than 121 M)
