Does allwinner need a windows flasher to flash?

[–] minnix@lemux.minnix.dev 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I don't believe any SBC needs Windows.

You'd be wrong. Rockchip needs a proprietary flasher for img images.

Neither Allwinner nor Rockchip boards need proprietary flashing software for img images. BTW, if you're having issues flashing, let me know and I can help out. I've flashed countless RC boards over the years since the original Rock64.

If you can give me a detailed description of how to flash android to an nvme drive without windows on an orange pi 5 I'll seriously buy you dinner. I've been sitting on an htpc project for months trying to solve this problem.
