 # FLASHING GEMINI
+
 ## INSTALL DEBIAN ONLY (only one partition, no other os)
-1. Install and configure FlashTool
+
+## Prepare firmware
+
+So as planet no provide Linux only firmware you have to do it by yourself.
+
+First of all you need to get a firmware with only one linux partition:
+
+1. Go here :  http://support.planetcom.co.uk/partitionTool.html
+1. Select gemini version (4G or wifi)
+1. Boot 1 : select Sailfish (no this is not an error)
+1. Reserve all partition to linux
+1. Download scatter file
+1. Download base firmware
+
+Next we need a standard Debian image:
+1. Boot 1 : select android standard
+1. Boot 2 : select debian
+1. Reserve partition for debian & android (exact sizes doesn't matter)
+1. Download aditional debian firmware
+
+At this you have 3 files :
+* Scatter file for Sailfish OS
+* Base firmware
+* Debian firmware
+
+Create a folder
+* Unzip base firmware inside
+* Unzip debian inside
+* Copy scatter file inside
+
+Now you have to replace all sailfishos_boot.img to debian_boot.img in the scatter file. 
+There is a simple perl oneliner to do it:
+
+    perl -p -i -e "s/sailfishos_boot/debian_boot/g" Gemini_x25_x27_LinuxOnly.txt
+
+## Install and configure FlashTool
