      Re: Is dual boot still possible?

      I modified the ramdisk to boot android and ubports without altering the system partition.

        @shubhamvis98 what happens when there is an Ubuntu Touch update?

        Fairphone 5 (Not yet installed UT on it though)

          @povoq you have to manually update it.
          If you have an op3 then you can try it

          The above link is an ubports version edge.
          Maybe have some bugs.
          Before installing make sure that you have backup of boot.img.
          You don't have to alter anything from system partition.

            This looks great, I messed so many hours trying to dualboot UPports and PostmarketOS or LinageOS without connecting a computer to switch slots.

            There is this app: https://github.com/ubports-xiaomi-sdm660/Switch-My-Slot-Ubuntu-Touch
            But does not seem to work on OP6

            A bit scared of loosing again a day or two in trying, so if you ever have time to write us some kind of manual, please go for it 😉
