I got mine working now on a Beelink T4 mini. I installed the Generic x86-64 image and here is how i got it working.

  1. Download and flash Ubuntu image on a flash drive or SD card. Any ubuntu will do. I used 20.04

  2. Copy the downloaded haos_generic-x86-64-6.6.img.xz image into another flash drive or SD card

  3. Boot with the ubuntu flash drive but select try ubuntu without installing

  4. When ubuntu is booted, Insert the second flash drive

  5. Open the flash drive and right-click on the HAOS image, open with disk image writer
