Linux on the Retroid Pocket Mini (Batocera & ROCKNIX)

I got my hands on some early test builds of Batocera and ROCKNIX, which are custom Linux-based operating systems that run on the Retroid Pocket Mini. Let’s take a look at the setup and boot process, and performance with various emulated systems. Even before full stable release they are a promising alternative to Android on this device!
