The #PinePhone modem (yes, the modem) can now run Linux kernel 5.10 (@postmarketOS)... we're sure many of you know where this is heading :) Massive thanks to biktorgj, konradybcio and others.

It means it's progress in opening up the firmware for the modem more :) not directly usable at the moment but it's a great step.

I think this can be made to fit into a 3.5" floppy disk as an enclosure.

I was following wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PineMod… a long time ago to see if I could run it on my Olimes USB-gLINK with the same quectel EG25G modem. Great job.
