Mobian on the Purism Librem 5 Evergreen
Channel: LINMOBnet
Date: 2021-03-21

You know Mobian, but did you know that it can also run on the Purism Librem 5?
In this video I demo Mobian on the Librem 5, based on the mobian-librem5-phosh-20210319.img nightly image.
The procedure of flashing Mobian to the Librem 5 is described on https://wiki.mobian-project.org/doku.php?id=librem5&s[]=librem5, the specific flash command I used was `./scripts/flash-image --board librem5r4 --dir mobian`.
