      Here's a replication of the steps following https://pad.ubports.com/p/HaliumHowToTestInstall

      Here's the contents of my folders:

      ~/Desktop/ubports/halium-install$ ls
      platform-tools/                    
      taimen/
      halium-install-standalone.sh      
      system.img  
      twrp-3.5.0_9-0-taimen.img      
      ubuntu-touch-android9-arm64.tar.gz
      platform-tools_r30.0.5-linux.zip 
      taimen.zip
      

      There are two folders "platform-tools" and "taimen".

      Here are the steps I took:

      Prepare for Installation

      • Download the latest root filesystem: wget https://ci.ubports.com/job/xenial-hybris-android9-rootfs-arm64/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/ubuntu-touch-android9-arm64.tar.gz

      • Download the customization of the device: halium-boot, system and vendor image provided by porter : http://twoot.bin.org.in/nextcloud/index.php/s/kFjWTt39MqNNnzs . Downloaded the Taimen files.

      • Download TWRP Recovery for your device: https://twrp.me/Devices/ - Note: DO NOT download the ZIP file for the TWRP installation that gained work with UT. You just need to download the .img file to get started! Downloaded twrp-3.5.0_9-0-taimen.img : https://dl.twrp.me/taimen/twrp-3.5.0_9-0-taimen.img.html from https://twrp.me/google/googlepixel2xl.html

      • Install Android platform tools: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
        Export the subfolder platform tools and cd inside

      sudo cp adb / usr / bin && sudo cp fastboot / usr / bin
      
      • Install additional packages:
      sudo apt install qemu-user-static qemu-system-arm e2fsprogs simg2img 
      
      • Download halium-install:
      wget https://github.com/JBBgameich/halium-install/releases/download/continuous/halium-install-standalone.sh
      

      Set it to executable:

      chmod 755 halium-install-standalone.sh
      
      • Add udev rules for Android devices (this is also done by the Ubports Installer):
        sudo curl --create-dirs -L -o /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules https://raw.githubusercontent.com/snowdream/51-android/master/51-android.rules
      
      sudo chmod a + r /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
      

      Restart the sudo udev service

      sudo service udev restart
      

      On the Pixel 2XL Phone:

      • Enable developer mode in Android, allow USB debugging and OEM unlock: https://www.howtogeek.com/129728/how-to-access-the-developer-options-menu-and-enable-usb-debugging-on-android-4.2/
        On the same page, enable OEM unlocking

      • Connect your device
        Confirm the security warning on the Android device
        Check with adb devices if the device is listed

      adb devices
      
      • Shut down your Android and boot into fastboot mode
        Power up, press and hold Vol-Down until the robot appears
        Check with fastboot devices if the device is listed
      fastboot devices
      
      • Unlock the bootloader with "fastboot flashing unlock"
      ~/Desktop/ubports/halium-install$ fastboot flashing unlock
      < waiting for any device >
      OKAY [  6.037s]
      

      Confirm the warning on the device

      • Return to the bootloader on the phone and Flash partitions
        Issue fastboot flash boot halium-boot.img
      fastboot flash boot halium-boot.img
      

      Example:

      ~/Desktop/ubports/halium-install/taimen$ fastboot flash boot halium-boot.img 
      Sending 'boot_b' (16444 KB)                        OKAY [  0.499s]
      Writing 'boot_b'                                   OKAY [  0.159s]
      Finished. Total time: 0.679s
      

      Issue fastboot flash vendor vendor.img

      fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
      

      Example:

      ~/Desktop/ubports/halium-install/taimen$ fastboot flash vendor vendor.img 
      Sending 'vendor_b' (355036 KB)                     OKAY [ 10.774s]
      Writing 'vendor_b'                                 OKAY [  1.692s]
      Finished. Total time: 12.470s
      
      • Boot TWRP recovery by running fastboot boot twrp-xy.img
      fastboot boot twrp-3.5.0_9-0-taimen.img
      

      Example:

      ~/Desktop/ubports/halium-install$ fastboot boot twrp-3.5.0_9-0-taimen.img
      Sending 'boot.img' (40960 KB)                      OKAY [  1.206s]
      Booting                                            OKAY [  0.001s]
      Finished. Total time: 1.301s
      

      Once TWRP loads on the phone

      • Wipe cache and system.partition and format data partition to remove encryption

      NOTE on this step I had actually wiped all the partitions and formatted all partitions (Dalvik / ART Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Storage). Every time I run TWRP using fast boot, adb says "Recovery" when I try adb devices:

      ~/Desktop/ubports/halium-install$ adb devices
      List of devices attached
      [DEVICE ID]	recovery
      
      

      The only way to restore TWRP menus was to fastboot flash all three of the taimen stock images:

      ~/Desktop/ubports/halium-install/taimen$ fastboot flash boot halium-boot.img 
      Sending 'boot_a' (16444 KB)                        OKAY [  0.483s]
      Writing 'boot_a'                                   OKAY [  0.155s]
      Finished. Total time: 0.661s
      
      ~/Desktop/ubports/halium-install/taimen$ fastboot flash vendor vendor.img 
      Sending 'vendor_a' (355036 KB)                     OKAY [ 11.425s]
      Writing 'vendor_a'                                 OKAY [  1.632s]
      Finished. Total time: 13.061s
      
      
      ~/Desktop/ubports/halium-install/taimen$ fastboot flash system system.img
      Sending 'system_a' (356840 KB)                     OKAY [ 11.241s]
      Writing 'system_a'                                 OKAY [  1.678s]
      Finished. Total time: 12.925s
      

      Then when I fastboot twrp it brings up the appropriate twrp menus show up on the phone.

      Install the actual UT OS
      Issue ./halium-install-standalone.sh -p ut -s ubuntu-touch-android9-arm64.tar.gz system.img
      Add parameter -i if you want to install also your public key for easier SSH access

      NOTE at this point I had actually rebooted back to the boot loader.

        When wiping the Cache and System partitions using Advanced Wipe this is what TWRP displays:

        Updating partition details...
        ...done
        Full SELinux support is present.
        Wiping Dalvik Directories...
        Cleaned: /data/dalvik-cache...
        -- Dalvik Directory Wipe Complete!
        Formating System using mkefs...
        Done.
        Updating partition details...
        ...done
        

        When I try to format using TWRP:

        Failed to unmount '/data' (Device or resource busy)
        Updating partition details...
        ...done

          no need get twrp menu. when u flash haluum-boot.img, vendor.img.
          fastboot boot twrp.img.
          twrp always on first screen.
          just run the last install command.then adb reboot.

            @atomos Thanks. I tried a different version of TWRP and I'm getting some progress but then the phone disconnects:

            Using: twrp-3.3.0-0-taimen.img

                  @atomos could the issue on mine might be that I have to roll back to android 9 before trying the steps?

                  For example should I be rolling back to 9.0.0 (PPR1.180610.009, Aug 2018) from https://developers.google.com/android/images ?

                        Just ran into an issue rolling back. Will have to pick this test up later this week. Thanks for everyone's help.

                          @maurice Its really strange but it could be your USB cable, or try different port on your host. Definitely this is an error related to the ADB protocol. So it looses connection to your device from time to time.

                          You can try yourself, push a bigger file into /data (few hundred megs) like: adb push xy.tgz /data and see if that goes through.

                          Note that this has nothing to do with clearing partitions. You can also try an older TWRP version. We might also be able to use the UBports recovery, let me try to build that tonight.

                              @atomos You can use GoogleΒ΄s vendor partition but I found some things wont work with it. Might have problems with sensors, GPS, Camera. But give it a try.

                                @flohack can I copy files to /vendor/rfs/msm/mpss/readonly/mbn/mcfg/configs/mcfg_sw/generic/
                                afer install ubuntu.
                                i use

                                sudo mount -o remount,rw /
                                

                                then do copy command, its says read only filesystem.

                                  @atomos No you probably need to do this in recovery. The partition is mounted as bind-mount, not easy to set readable....

                                          @maurice said in Pixel 2 XL (Taimen) Testing Results:

                                          have you try no sudo?
