This page hosts the latest official and test system images. Test releases begin with t, and official releases begin with r.
Radxa OS
Note: When using R1 or higher version system images, please use SPI boot firmware version 20251230 or newer.
- radxa-dragon-q6a_noble_gnome_r2.output_512.img.xz: For booting from microSD card / USB drive / eMMC / NVMe
- radxa-dragon-q6a_noble_gnome_r2.output_4096.img.xz: For booting from UFS
The files above are compressed .img.xz system images. If your flashing tool cannot write .xz archives directly, extract the archive first to get the .img file, then flash that .img file.
For the complete procedure, see Quick Start or Install System.
You can determine the system SPI firmware version using the following methods:
- Command Query
If the system can boot normally, you can use the following command to check the SPI boot firmware version:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version
The terminal will output something like the following. The 260120 portion indicates the SPI boot firmware date/version.
6.0.260120.BOOT.MXF.1.0.1-00549-KODIAKWP-1
- System Boot Issues
If the system fails to boot properly, you can try re-flashing the latest SPI boot firmware.

eMMC System Image
UFS System Image
Compared with the eMMC system image, flashing the UFS system image requires additionally flashing the UFS configuration file.
Boot Firmware
The Dragon Q6A comes with the SPI boot firmware pre-flashed by default. Under normal circumstances, it is not necessary to re-flash the boot firmware. If the system fails to boot properly, you can try re-flashing the SPI boot firmware.
