007-pbp2n
Everything in 007-pbp2m (backlight fix, dim Tow-Boot screen, overlays, 1 s countdown, btrfs, stack fix, fast USB start, SD at 50 MHz, touchpad fix, XHCI fixes, keyboard fallback, several USB keyboards, big-core/GPU regulators off in suspend), plus:
- Faster eMMC: HS200 at up to 200 MHz instead of the 25 MHz cap (patch 0024).
- Faster boot: power-on to kernel start went from 17.8 s to 15.3 s on my Pinebook Pro, when booting the uncompressed
Imagefrom a/booton btrfs with compression turned off (chattr +m /boot). Unpacking is now the slow part: withImage.gzit's still about 17.8 s. See the README for the numbers. - HS400 was tried and doesn't work on this board (details in the README).
- Faster boot: power-on to kernel start went from 17.8 s to 15.3 s on my Pinebook Pro, when booting the uncompressed
Status: tested on my Pinebook Pro (2026-10-15): boots from SPI, and Linux takes over the eMMC cleanly in HS200.
If you ever saved Tow-Boot settings (saveenv/fw_setenv), run env default -a; saveenv after flashing.
