Cast

gollark: So this thing's stock room boots fine, but I have no idea how or why.
gollark: There seem to be some things missing.
gollark: ```Armor_X5_Q:/ $ ls /dev/block/platform/bootdevice/by-name/ boot cache expdb frp gz2 lk2 md1img metadata nvdata otp persist preloader_b protect1 recovery scp2 seccfg sspm_1 super tee2 vbmeta vbmeta_vendor boot_para dtbo flashinfo gz1 lk logo md_udc nvcfg nvram para preloader_a proinfo protect2 scp1 sec1 spmfw sspm_2 tee1 userdata vbmeta_system ```
gollark: So I tried flashing a generic system image from fastboot. Guess what? Apparently the system partition doesn't exist. That cannot possibly be standard-compliant.
gollark: See, I tried unlocking the bootloader then flashing an unofficial TWRP build, and *that* completes with no errors, but guess what? It doesn't *do anything*. It reboots a bit, and then I get the stock recovery somehow.
