Re: Rockchip RK3588

I have also bought an Orange Pi 5 Max because its specs were more 
appealing to me, but I regret it.
Its overall software support is nowhere near the Orange Pi 5 Plus's.
In particular, the Max isn't even listed under edk2-rk3588's bronze 
support platforms, so it's not surprising it doesn't work.
In fact, the Max only runs correctly with the vendor's Linux distro (a 
customised Armbian).
