Manjaro Linux - KDE-Plasma & XFCE for VIM1

i can see Manjaro-ARM-minimal-kvim1-19.07.img.xz — Yandex.Disk i suppose this is the promised file… let the fun begin here is my verdict on my VIM1pro which initial situation was (uboot, kernel and ubuntu): kvim#version U-Boot 2015.01 (Oct 30 2018 - 15:53:59) aarch64-none-elf-gcc (crosstool-NG linaro-1.13.1-4.8-2013.11 - Linaro GCC 2013.10) 4.8.3 20131111 (prerelease) GNU ld (crosstool-NG linaro-1.13.1-4.8-2013.11 - Linaro GCC 2013.10) 2.23.2.20130610 Linaro 2013.10-4 khadas@Khadas:~$ lsb_…

Yes u-boot->kernel 4.9 (eMMC) -> uInitrd (eMMC) -> mount ROOTFS in USB\SD (if not USB\SD mount ROOTFS in eMMC) There is no multi-boot in official Ubuntu images for eMMC. So you can’t run an external system. You can add your own variables to ENV u-boot via the UART console. Or run the script (you need to build it yourself) in u-boot, which will add the necessary variables to activate multiload. And be sure to change the label and mount settings of the root in the eMMC.
