+## gen1recomp-sbc (Linux ARM SBC / PortMaster)
+
+Native LÖVE 11.5 aarch64 PortMaster port of gen1recomp for compatible Linux ARM SBC handhelds, including H700-class devices. This pack was built from source release **__SOURCE_TAG__**.
+
+### Install
+
+1. Install PortMaster for your handheld firmware.
+2. Unzip so `gen1recomp-sbc.sh` and the `gen1recomp-sbc/` folder are siblings in the device's PortMaster ports directory.
+3. Copy a legal US Pokémon Red or Blue `.gb` into `gen1recomp-sbc/lovegame/`.
+4. Refresh the launcher and launch **gen1recomp-sbc** from Ports.
+
+### Controls
+
+| Input | Action |
+|--|--|
+| D-pad | Move cursor |
+| A | Click |
+| L1 / R1 | Switch tabs |
+| Start / Select | Play or choose ROM |
+
+Controls use the normal PortMaster / SDL pad map. Device-specific power/suspend behavior is supplied by the firmware and PortMaster runtime.
+
+### First run
+
+Put the `.gb` in `lovegame/`, then press **Choose ROM**. After import, the ROM-derived cache and saves stay beside the game (`portable.txt`).
+
+### Thanks
+
+LÖVE runtime binaries from [PortMaster](https://portmaster.games/). PortMaster device support and runtime integration are maintained by the PortMaster team.

+# Linux ARM SBC Handhelds (PortMaster)
+
+Download `gen1recomp-*-sbc-portmaster.zip` from the [Gen1Recomp releases](https://github.com/bryanthaboi/gen1recomp/releases). This build targets 64-bit Linux ARM handhelds with PortMaster, including compatible H700 devices.
+
+## Install
+
+1. Unzip the release. It contains `gen1recomp-sbc.sh` and a `gen1recomp-sbc/` folder.
+2. Copy both as siblings into your device's PortMaster ports directory, commonly `Roms/Ports (PORTS)/` or `Roms/PORTS/`.
+3. Install PortMaster for your firmware and refresh the Ports list.
+4. Copy your legally owned canonical US Red or Blue `.gb` file into `gen1recomp-sbc/lovegame/`.
+5. Launch **gen1recomp-sbc** from Ports and choose the ROM.
+
+The pack includes `portable.txt`, so saves and ROM-derived cache remain beside the game on the SD card. The build never ships ROM-derived bytes.
+
+Canonical US cart SHA-1 values:
+
+- Red: `ea9bcae617fdf159b045185467ae58b2e4a48b9a`
+- Blue: `d7037c83e1ae5b39bde3c30787637ba1d4c48ce2`
+
+## Controls
+
+| Input | Action |
+| --- | --- |
+| D-pad | Move cursor |
+| A | Click / confirm |
+| L1 / R1 | Switch tabs |
+| Start / Select | Play or choose ROM |
+
+In-game controls use the normal PortMaster/SDL mapping and can be rebound in **OPTIONS → CONTROLS**.
+
+## Runtime and suspend
+
+The package bundles PortMaster's LÖVE 11.5 aarch64 runtime. The launcher sources `control.txt`, calls `get_controls`, applies an optional CFW override, invokes `pm_platform_helper`, and calls `pm_finish` on exit. Paths are relative to the launcher, allowing different firmware mount points.
+
+Suspend/resume uses the existing LÖVE focus/visibility lifecycle: input is reset on focus loss and the game resumes when the window becomes visible again. Exact power-button behavior remains firmware-dependent; hardware validation has been performed on the TrimUI Brick, not every SBC or H700 device.
+
+## Building
+
+Release workflows build this automatically. Standalone builds resolve the latest published Gen1Recomp release by default:
+
+```sh
+./build-linux-arm-sbc.sh --version 0.1.75
+```
+
+For development, package a local checkout explicitly:
+
+```sh
+GEN1RECOMP_SOURCE_DIR="$PWD" ./build-linux-arm-sbc.sh --version 0.1.0
+# or: ./build-linux-arm-sbc.sh --source "$PWD" --version 0.1.0
+```
+
+The generated `port.json` records the source release tag. `install-linux-arm-sbc.sh` is a macOS helper for copying a built pack to a mounted SD card.
+
+PortMaster device support and runtime integration are maintained in the [PortMaster](https://github.com/PortsMaster/PortMaster-New) ecosystem.
