I managed to get MicroOS running on the weekend :-)
TL;DR: Put the custom UEFI firmware from
https://github.com/edk2-porting/edk2-rk3588 on a SD-Card and you will be
able to boot our TW/MicroOS ISO images. Leap doesn't work.
Thanks to the custom EDK2 UEFI firmware from
https://github.com/edk2-porting/edk2-rk3588, the board can boot our
aarch64 UEFI images. I could install MicroOS from the ISO image on the
NVME disk. The board boots and in general behaves and acts just fine.
I could not yet get the eMMC to work in MicroOS. It doesn't show up in
lsblk nor in the installer but I didn't had the time to look deeper into
this. Perhaps the driver is not yet upstream, but I wouldn't know for
sure as of now.
The UEFI firmware currently runs on a SD-Card and that works fine. I'm
not yet planning to flash the internal SPI just yet because it just
works and I still want to get some confidence that everything is fun.
I also tried to boot Leap Micro 5.5. Grub shows up, but after selecting
"Installation" it remains stuck at a cursor. I guess the kernel is too
old and the Radxa patches are not yet present there but that's just a guess.
In short: Fun little board to play with. I will keep exploring this
little fella a bit more but it makes me already pretty happy that
Tumbleweed works once you use the custom UEFI firmware.

Hey,
I recently purchased a beautiful Radxa Rock 5B [1] to replace my ageing
RPi4 Home server.
Since we have a Tumbleweed image for the Radxa Zero [2], I was having
some hopes, that we might also have images for the Rock 5B. Is there
something known about it?
Best,
phoenix

I with Felix, I have 5B/5A, I love to get tumbleweed on them as well.
