I am trying to install Ubuntu Touch on a Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 with Ubports. Ubports recognises the device and starts flashing it. After flashing is almost finished, the device boots into UBports recovery and at the bottom of the screen is the following written: failed to save locale to cache recovery last locale no such file or directory. I can try whatever option on the menu, it always boots back to this UBports recovery or another menu or Fastboot. What can I do to get UBports to install Ubuntu Touch?

@paul-henri What you are seeing is quite correct. As @developerbayman pointed out, ensure you have installed the Android ROM stipulated by the porter (see the devices page) . If you have done that, ensure you tick all the boxes on the installer "wipe data" and the others. If you did that and are running it through the installer again that is not so important.

@MrT10001 Hi, I consulted that page but if I follow the link on https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/merlin/ (Please double-check that your device is running the latest available stock Android 11 firmware (MIUI 12.5.4.0 recomended). download-icon) I get to https://github.com/ubuntu-touch-redmi-mt6768/ubuntu-touch-merlin/blob/main/README.md but that site refers me back to the first site... I can't find any image...

@paul-henri Download here. Use the fastboot version and run the flash_all.bat script (Windows) or flash_all.sh (Linux) from a terminal with the device in fastboot mode. DO NOT relock the bootloader as it can brick the device and be patient, the ROM takes about 10 minutes to install and may seem to hang at one stage, but it is doing things.
