I have been following this plan:
https://github.com/Rappetor/Sovol-SV08-Mainline

So far so good. One does need to SSH into the printer after changing the emmc.

Ok. So I was just able to get all the way through the instructions and it worked for me. I am wondering if you put in your SSID and Password for you wireless network? The little screen on the front will not work until later in installation.

I do agree that it would be nice for Sovol to have a more official way to mainline Klipper. It may be because they truly view it as a basic Voron 2.4 printer that gets a per up and running quickly but that is as far as they are willing to go.

I would say the hardest part of mainlining the SV08 is the flashing of the mainboard and the toolhead. It would have been nice to not have to use the USB stick to talk with the firmware.

Honnestly i do not understand that. With klipper mainline + customisation, they can did exactly the same without need of deploy there own version of klipper. I choose this printer for the open source choice but this random fork of klipper is a very bad practice (for the support of SV08 and for the community). BTW, fortunaly some people did the job to going back the the mainline. I did not perform the switch yet but i hope soon.

The may help, back to the old Sovol firmware
