Thank you for your reply. > Does an external USB keyboard work during the install?
The laptop has only 1 USB Type A and 2 USB Type C ports. The type A one is used for installing the OS. I will try to find an adapter for the USB type C port. > Probably, or even just device-tree stuff. Maybe.

Gen 1-2 are SoC SC8180X and SC8180XP respectively which are the same SoC except for the CPU frequency https://git.linaro.org/landing-teams/working/qualcomm/kernel.git/log/?qt=grep&q=SC8180. Gen 3 is SoC SC8280 https://git.linaro.org/landing-teams/working/qualcomm/kernel.git/log/?qt=grep&q=SC8280 Best Regards, Alfredo
