[Guide] OpenFydeOS Kernel 6.6 - Brunch! 🥞

Source: From FydeOS Legend - Monoco aka Su12 from the Chinese Forums


"FYI: FydeOS does not guarantee this will be stable. If your data is lost, it’s your responsibility.

  • The original FydeOS kernel is already well-configured, so you don’t need to tinker with it.
  • Don’t blindly copy and paste commands.

We do not provide any basic knowledge teaching.
Sound issues may be due to kernel or configuration file problems. If you need configuration changes, you are on your own."

  • You can also try this on the Steam Deck.

  1. Download the release version at https://github.com/Damenly/brunch-unstable/releases
    If you’re using a Surface device, choose the Surface option; if it’s a regular device, choose the Chromebook image. Make sure to download the firmware as well.

crosh (Open browser type ctrl alt t)

/usr/sbin/crossystem_mode-switch.sh disable-rootfs-verification


Line by line On crosh :

shell
sudo -i
mount -oremount,rw /

#--For usb users only
[ -d /efi ] || mkdir /efi
mount /dev/sda12 /efi || true  #Only for usb users
--#

rm -rf /lib/modules/* 
rm -rf /lib/firmware
cd /home/chronos/user/Downloads
tar -xvf chromebook-6.6.tar.gz -C /
tar -xvf firmware.tar.gz -C /

cp /vmlinux /efi/syslinux/vmlinuz.A
#cp /vmlinux /efi/syslinux/vmlinuz.B
cp /vmlinux /boot/vmlinuz
  • Always check if file names match the written commands off course.
  • Restart at the end.

» I dont know yet the advantages of brunch as I am new to this as well. So… good luck lads.
» This only works for x86 and amd64 systems not for arm single board arquitectures.

  • This is meant to add more driver compatability such as wifi sound etc… good luck.

My FydeOS won’t open Crosh, Ctrl+Alt+T won’t open crosh at all

what version of fyde have u installed?

is there a way to gain root access in Fydeos?
like magisk/kernelsu or supersu?

I havent tested brunch as much but its more open and maybe theres a way to make it work you should try it.

FydeOS v18.0-SP1

not pro like you

This tutorial isn’t useful for me because current fydeos won’t even boot on my hp zbook firefly 14 g10 amd. Is there there a way to compile a fydeos/openfyde installer with kernel 6.5 or above?

Specs:
Model: HP Zbook firefly 14 G10 AMD
Amd Ryzen 7 PRO 7840HS
64GB DDR5 Sodimm
2x1tb nvme SSDs

Is OpenFyde still active ?
Are we gonna have any updates ?

Yes it is, 126 is on the way.

Will OpenFyde 126 have an updated kernel, or will it still be on 5.15?
