`rkdebian` turns an $80 RK3562 Android tablet into a Debian workstation

A cheap locked-down device can become a bootable Debian 12 machine. Useful for low-cost Linux experiments, but the device scope is narrow and prerelease status keeps it niche.

[ KEY POINTS ]
  1. Targets the Rockchip RK3562-based Doogee U10; reuse value depends almost entirely on owning that exact hardware.
  2. Builds bootable Debian 12 Bookworm images, so the value is hardware repurposing more than a general dev-tool upgrade.
  3. Public prerelease build is dated May 14, 2026; treat it as an experiment box, not a dependable main workstation.
