Do you know if there's been an update or something else that might not make root work? I ran your instructions using the second img you provided, with "fastboot boot magisk_patched.img". The command succeeded and the system booted, but I don't seem to have root. I tried installing software that depends on it, like AFWall+, which complains there's no root, and supersu. Do I need to do something else?

I have the Onyx Boox Max 3, "android version 9", "Version: 2019-11-09_10-06_2.2.1_4b92663"
