 > [!NOTE]
-> This is not an official release image, but one of the CI/dev version images by openEuler RISC-V SIG we found directly on their server, which is NOT listed on oERV SIG's [image download website](https://images.oerv.ac.cn/).
-> oERV SIG is working on a newer release, while this is the last known bootable image on a real Unmatched board so far as we've tested.
-> More information [here](https://github.com/ruyisdk/support-matrix/issues/228#issuecomment-2785789283).
+> This is the official mainline openEuler riscv64 DVD ISO.
+> You'll need mainline U-Boot with EFI support to boot.
+> In this test report there's no GPU installed. In theory, you should be able to use GUI if there is a GPU.

 ## Installation Steps
 
+### Build and flash U-Boot to SPI Flash
+
+Need a running OS on the Unmatched.
+
+You can obtain U-Boot binary from Debian.
+
+```shell
+wget http://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/u/u-boot/u-boot-sifive_2025.01-3_riscv64.deb
+dpkg -x u-boot-sifive_2025.01-3_riscv64.deb .
+# If you're not on Debian, you may try 7-Zip
+# 7z x u-boot-sifive_2025.01-3_riscv64.deb
+# tar xvf data.tar
+# Or with ar
+# ar x u-boot-sifive_2025.01-3_riscv64.deb
+# tar xvf data.tar.xz
+cd usr/lib/u-boot/sifive_unmatched
+sudo modprobe mtdblock
+sgdisk --clear -a 1 \
+    --new=1:40:2087     --change-name=1:spl   --typecode=1:5B193300-FC78-40CD-8002-E86C45580B47 \
+    --new=2:2088:10279  --change-name=2:uboot --typecode=2:2E54B353-1271-4842-806F-E436D6AF6985 \
+    --new=3:10280:10535 --change-name=3:env   --typecode=3:3DE21764-95BD-54BD-A5C3-4ABE786F38A8 \
+    /dev/mtdblock0
+dd if=u-boot-spl.bin of=/dev/mtdblock0 bs=4096 seek=5 conv=sync
+dd if=u-boot.itb  of=/dev/mtdblock0 bs=4096 seek=261 conv=sync
+```
+
+After flashing, poweroff the board normally.
+
 ### Boot Device Selection
 
-Ensure the dip switch is set to boot from the microSD card. If not changed, the factory default is to boot from the microSD card.
+Ensure the dip switch is set to boot from SPI Flash. If not changed, the factory default is to boot from the microSD card.
 
 The dip switch should be set as follows: `MSEL[3:0]=1011`
 
 ### Use `dd` to Flash the Image to the microSD Card
 
 ```shell
-wget https://mirror.iscas.ac.cn/openeuler-sig-riscv/openEuler-RISC-V/testing/20241105/v0.1/Unmatched/openEuler-24.09-V1-xfce-unmatched-testing.img.zst
-zstd -T0 -dkv openEuler-24.09-V1-xfce-unmatched-testing.img.zst
-sudo dd if=openEuler-24.09-V1-xfce-unmatched-testing.img of=/dev/sdX bs=1M status=progress; sync
+wget https://dl-cdn.openeuler.openatom.cn/openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP2/ISO/riscv64/openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP2-netinst-riscv64-dvd.iso
+sudo wipefs -af /dev/sdX
+sudo dd if=openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP2-netinst-riscv64-dvd.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=1M status=progress
+sync; sudo eject /dev/sdX
 ```
 
-### Notes
+Unplug the USB drive/microSD card, and insert it into any USB ports/microSD slot on Unmatched.
+
+### OS Installation
+
+There are 2 serial ports on Unmatched, the second of which is the CPU serial.
+
+If there's no GPU installed, openEuler's Anaconda installer will fallback to output on serial.
 
-See the installation document for instructions on booting with SSD. If U-Boot is flashed into the onboard SPI Flash, microSD-free boot setups could be achieved by editing the drive configurations in `extlinux.conf`.
+In this report we're using serial terminal, with the text installer.
 
-Remember to toggle the DIP switch (boot mode) accordingly.
+(This is not the most convenient way however, it's more recommended to plug in a GPU and use the GUI installer instead.)
 
-Refer to the U-Boot official documentation for flashing instructions: https://docs.u-boot.org/en/latest/board/sifive/unmatched.html
+See [this](<https://asciinema.org/a/HncsUaCkyzLLomdo1rmwFT7hF)>) screen record for installation process.
+
+Some notable issues:
+
+1. You'll need to fill in the network install source manually, e.g. https://repo.openeuler.org/openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP2/OS/riscv64/
+2. You may have troubles installing GRUB, when prompting as below, choose yes:
+```
+Question
+
+The following error occurred while installing the boot loader. The system will                                          
+not be bootable. Would you like to ignore this and continue with installation?                                          
+
+Failed to set new efi boot target. This is most likely a kernel or firmware bug.
+
+Please respond 'yes' or 'no'
+```
+3. By default U-Boot can't pick up GRUB EFI. After the installation finished and rebooted, remove the installation media, enters U-Boot, interrupt autoboot and run the following commands to boot temporarily:
+```shell
+nvme scan
+load nvme 0:1 $kernel_addr_r /EFI/openEuler/grubriscv64.efi
+bootefi $kernel_addr_r
+```
+4. After entering the system, you'll need to install GRUB as `--removable` to make U-Boot pick up GRUB automatically and boot:
+```shell
+dnf install -y grub2-efi-riscv64-modules
+grub2-install --removable
+grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
+```
 
 ### Logging into the System
 
 Log into the system via the onboard serial port (using the microUSB cable connected to another computer).
 
-Default username: `openeuler` or `root`
-Default password: `openEuler12#$`
+Default username and password are set during the installation process.
