Thank you for answer. Is OS "Tinker_Edge_T-Mendel-Eagle-V3.0.7-20210610" the full version OS or is it just an upgrade version of "Tinker_Edge_T-Mendel-Eagle-V3.0.2-20201015"?

Where is the USB driver for Windows 10 64bit? Usb driver for Windows XP? Does anyone use it?

Is it necessary to install any drivers to install MENDEL OS from RPi with Raspbian? 3 computers with Windows 10 and Tinker Borard failed to boot. The drivers failed to install even via the Windows 10 update.

I managed to flash the version of Tinker Edge T Mendel 5.2 Eagle V3.0.7 using RPi4. It was necessary to install flashboot and run the flash.sh script with root privileges. The system boot is slow, the OS is looking for a connected display and both cameras. Searching for everyone takes 2 minutes. Very poorly prepared installation. That doesn't happen with Raspberry.

Not quite sure the full version you mean. However, V3.0.2 is based on the Mendel 5.0 Eagle release and V3.0.7 is based on the Mendel 5.2 Eagle release. I would say V3.0.7 is an upgraded version.

It is included in the release (the file ASUS_Android_USB_drivers_for_Windows_20160628.zip is under the folder tools) and you can download it from the support site.

Any info on where I can find the drivers for Windows 11.  I have searched everywhere and am ready to f#cking smash this crap already.   4 units Ive purchased and not 1 has yet to function right.  2 being Tinker Edge R and T and Jetson Nano and Rock 5B).  A fortune spent on nothing but useless items

 

Ive used 3 different computers to try install Mendel and can not get a single 1 to find the board...
