I have just rooted Go 7 (BW) on Debian Linux. The EDL loader for Go Color 7 (Gen2) in
https://www.temblast.com/ref/onyxldr.htm works on Go 7 (BW) as well.
I do not have time writing up details, but general procedure is the following:
You have to install edlclient first. On Debian Linux, it could be done by
Code:
pipx install git+https://github.com/bkerler/edl.git
Then you use
Code:
edl --loader={LOADER} printgpt
to figure out the correct boot partition (it is an A/B device, so you have to check which slot is active), and then (say, boot_a is active)
Code:
edl --loader={LOADER} r boot_a boot.img
Now you patch this boot image, and write the patched boot image by
Code:
edl --loader={LOADER} w boot_a patched.img
