Install notes

Flash Gameforce ACE and boot

Follow the workflow below; the official board page contains any extra quirks for the Rockchip RK3588 platform.

  1. Grab the image. Download the latest Gameforce ACE 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 Gameforce ACE, power on, and let REG Linux expand the filesystem. Pair controllers inside EmulationStation 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.
