Hi @linuxium

did you get some progress with steamos on meegopad t01?

i'm testing some things, and i want to try installing steamOS on it, but if is not worth, then i focus on other tests.

question. i want to flash a Teclast X89 dual boot firmware on the meegopad.
Do you know if this process may damage the device?
there are few settings on the flashing tool that i don´t know if i need to change.

check the guide:

http://manguiro.blogspot.com/2015/03/guide-teclast-x89-installation-guide.html

the settings i'm not sure are:
SOC Devices
VID=8087
PID=0A65

Android devices:
VID=8087
PID=09EF

i'm not sure if this can damage the device and get a full brick. i figure if i did not touch the BIOS, i always get a way to recover the device... but i can´t find any info about this.

do you know something about this?

The more people trying to get SteamOS working means the quicker it will happen! Just don't expect instant results.

I would not recommend flashing another device's BIOS to any current Intel Z3735F based device given it could brick (meaning permanently brick) the device.
