Yes, they are challenging to boot, because without working display, debugging them is hard/impossible. Very few people have serial cables for those, but at least the N9 is pretty common. PostmarketOS is interested in using it as a target. I'm interested in keeping it going. With working display, I'm pretty sure I can prevent regressions... and there could be even some improvements :-).
