This is a draft and is untested, but it should "just work" since the server in question serves over https as well as anonymous ftp. |

Jumpdrive
A swiss army knife for mobile devices, currently supporting:
- Pine64 PineTab
- Pine64 PinePhone
- Purism Librem 5
You can use this to flash a image directly to eMMC, troubleshooting a broken system, and a lot more.
Table of Contents
Installation
Download the latest image for your device here
PinePhone / PineTab
Then use dd to flash the image to an SD card. Jumpdrive is pretty small, so there is no need for a large storage SD card.
Insert the SD card to the device, then boot it up, you should get a nice splash screen and you should see a new storage device after you plug the device to USB.
With the device plugged in, you can now flash a distro, or fix a unbootable installation.
WARNING: In case eMMC isn't showing up try to charge your battery and try again. There are reports of people not being able to flash to eMMC with discharged battery.
Librem 5
Extract the downloaded JumpDrive release archive for the Librem 5, put the device into flash mode, then run the boot-purism-librem5.sh script from the release.
