for the MNT Reform we recently bumped the start of the first partition to be at 16777216 (16 MiB), i.e. in our scripts we run: /sbin/parted -s "$SYSIMAGE.img" "mkpart primary ext4 16MiB ..." For the longest time, our offset for the first partition was at 4194304 bytes but since there is now the rk3588 module that we want to support, this had to be bumped quite a bit. Initially we had it at 12 MiB (which worked fine) but after having read https://opensource.rock-chips.com/wiki_Partitions this now became 16 MiB just to be on the safe-side (no idea how the user will be repurposing their system) and because 4 MiB extra do not add much in the grand scheme of things... Thanks! cheers, josch
