This script was tested on OrangePi Zero 2, a working OS image for OrangePi Zero 2 can be downloaded HERE

At the moment this script supports architecture arm64/aarch64 and armhf/armv7l, and should work with any debian based distribution such as Ubuntu, Debian, Armbian etc...

/dev/mmcblk1p2 /var/lib/kvmd/msd  ext4  nodev,nosuid,noexec,ro,errors=remount-ro,data=journal,X-kvmd.otgmsd-root=/var/lib/kvmd/msd,X-kvmd.otgmsd-user=kvmd  0 0
