They’re not that open because they steal Linux: https://web.archive.org/web/20220109040915/http://bbs.onyx-international.com/t/install-linux-or-alternate-os-and-gpl2-kernel-source/698
seems they have kernels on github, but I haven’t looked too closely https://github.com/onyx-intl/Kernel_BOOX60
That repository is only for the Boox60, a device from 2009. They haven’t been releasing kernels for modern devices.
yeah that’s unfortunate then
