I tried AsteroidOS on Alpine Linux.
Alpine Linux from 3.21 include AsteroidOS packages in community repository.
My Japanese Blog "AsteroidOS" Tag Link
My Japanese Blog "Alpine" Tag Link
Use Environment
Windows 10 x64
VirtualBox 7.1 and 7.2
Alpine Linux 3.22 and edge
1.Alpine Linux install.
2.Enable community repository.
# vi /etc/apk/repositories
uncomment out community repository.
3.Install packages.
# apk update
repository refresh.
# apk add asteroid-launcher
Many dependent packages install too.
# apk add asteroid-alarmclock asteroid-btsyncd asteroid-calculator asteroid-calendar asteroid-camera asteroid-compass asteroid-diamonds asteroid-flashlight asteroid-hrm asteroid-icons-ion asteroid-languages asteroid-music asteroid-settings asteroid-stopwatch asteroid-timer asteroid-wallpapers asteroid-weather qml-asteroid
# apk add qt5-qtbase-sqlite
# setup-wayland-base
If you need Japanese font.
# apk add font-noto-cjk font-noto-cjk-extra
4.Enable service
# rc-service dbus start
# rc-update add dbus
# rc-service mce start
# rc-update add mce
# mcetool -j enabled
5.Run AsteroidOS
I used SSH from host OS.
In the case of root.
# export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/tmp/runtime-root
# asteroid-launcher -platform eglfs &
# /usr/libexec/mapplauncherd/booster-qt5 -d
In the case on generic user(ex. asteroid).
$ export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/tmp/runtime-asteroid
$ asteroid-launcher -platform eglfs &
$ /usr/libexec/mapplauncherd/booster-qt5 -d
P.S.
I thought problem that is mapplauncherd package in 3.21.
UI worked but Apps didn't work.
Its package in 3.22 and edge is newer. It's OK.

Update SailfishOS 1.x to 2.0 on Nokia N9
Update SailfishOS 1.x to 2.0 on Nokia N9.
My Japanese Blog Article Link1
My Japanese Blog Article Link2
My Japanese Blog Article Link3
My Japanese Blog Article Link4
In advance, installed SailfishOS 1.1.0.39.
But, cannot get 1.1.0.39 image now.(Related Link)
Instead, can get 1.1.2.15 image. (Related Link)
The following content is a process started from 1.1.0.39 image.
If started from 1.1.2.15 image, it may a little different be the case of 1.1.0.39.
I tried once from 1.1.2.15. I remember the process remained almost unchanged.
However, a slight difference in the movement was seen.
Update Process
1. root password change
From Terminal.
It becomes necessary as measures after updating to 2.0.1 and later.
2. Disable Repository
These repositories can not be used and should be invalidated.
# ssu dr adaptation0
# ssu dr adaptation1
# ssu dr thirdparty
3. Lock packages for installed N9
Accidentally in order to not uninstall.

4. Change before update
Invalidation Setting.
Comment out them.
In case, 1.1.0.39 and 1.1.2.15.
/var/lib/environment/nemo/61-nemo-mobile-hw-wayland.conf
#QT_COMPOSITOR_NEGATE_INVERTED_Y=1
In case, 1.1.2.15 only.
/var/lib/environment/compositor/60-n9-n950-ui.conf
#QT_QPA_EVDEV_TOUCHSCREEN_PARAMETERS="rotate=90"
5. OS Update
When updating any version, the application icon became 3 columns.
Rarely 2 columns.
Sounds and battery indications are lost with the update to 2.0.
I think that the reason is to uninstalled the following locked package.
When updating to 1.1.7.28, uninstall the dependent package.
pulseaudio-module-cmtspeech-n9xx
pulseaudio-settings-n950
When updating to 1.1.9.28, uninstall the dependent package.

# ssu re 2.0.0.10
After updating to 2.0.1, several problems came out. I update it to 2.0.0 once.
# zypper ref
# zypper up
Uninstall some locked packages on update.
And add some zypper patterns.

Later, I will write things 2.0.1 and later.
Some wrote in a Japanese blog article.
Summary
After updating to 2.0.1, it happened that I did not know the cause.
It is not possible to change the time from the setting screen or change the password in the developer mode.
But I could change the wallpaper.
I think that the problem is related to administrator authority.

Can change the password in the developer mode on 2.1.0.11.
Originally changed in the .ks file for image creation.
It was reset by package update.
