 Sometimes newer kernels will fix or break the screen drivers. OS's that use newer or older kernels than the official Raspberry Pi OS, or even build their own kernel, might suffer from problems that have either been fixed or have not yet been fixed.
-==== Required Adjustments ====
+==== Editing ''config.txt'' ====
 To get any OS to work on a Hackberry, the ''config.txt'' needs to be edited to load the display driver. Otherwise, the screen will stay dark.
+There are two ways to do this:
+=== 1) Mounting the micro SD card on a computer ===
+After you've flashed your micro SD card, you probably need to (safely) remove it from your computer and plug it back in again. \\
+There should be two (or at least one) "device" or partition now. The ''config.txt'' will be located on the ''bootfs'' partition under ''/firmware/config.txt''.
+=== 2) Editing the file on a running Hackberry ===
+If you have access to the Hackberry through SSH, hooked up an external display, or need to do adjustments after having it configured, you can edit the ''config.txt'' located under ''/boot/firmware/config.txt''. \\
+Be aware that you need to have root privileges (e.g. ''sudo nano /boot/firmware/config.txt'').
 Please refer to the individual installation guides for more details.
