Flash Banana Pi M2 Zero and boot

Follow the workflow below; the official board page contains any extra quirks for the Allwinner H2+ platform.

  1. Grab the image. Download the latest Banana Pi M2 Zero build from the downloads page or the official board entry.
  2. Flash to storage. Use balenaEtcher, Raspberry Pi Imager, or `dd` to write the image to an SD card or SSD. Make sure to verify the checksum before booting.
  3. First boot setup. Insert the media into your Banana Pi M2 Zero, power on, and let REG Linux expand the filesystem. Pair controllers inside REG-Station once prompted.
  4. Troubleshoot with rescue tools. REG Linux ships with an immutable base and rescue partition—if something breaks, reboot into rescue or reflash without touching your ROMs.
