Installing openSUSE

  1. Download openSUSE Tumbleweed or Leap aarch64 ISO

    openSUSE Website: https://www.opensuse.org/

  2. Flash the ISO to a USB drive

    dd if=~/Downloads/openSUSE-*edition*-*type*-aarch64-Current.iso of=/dev/sdX

    Alternatively, you can use Gnome Disks, balenaEtcher, or an imaging tool of your choice.

  3. Insert and boot from the USB drive

    [ESC at Boot] > Boot Maintenance Manager > Boot From File > (USB Device ID) > EFI > AARCH64.EFI; [ENTER]

  4. Press "e" at Install Fedora GRUB menu and add the following to the linux line:

    amdgpu.pcie_gen_cap=0x4

  5. Install openSUSE and restart when prompted [Ignore any graphical issues during installer]

  6. Once logged in, complete the following steps to prevent crashing [AMD GPU's]

    nano /etc/default/grub

    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="amdgpu.pcie_gen_cap=0x4 amdgpu.noretry=0"

    sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

  7. Reboot, and the install is now complete!

NOTE: If you are using an AMD GPU, you will probably need to apply the Mesa patch on under "Post-Install Recommendations" on the main page.
