    Hello,

    I still do not know if the Le Max 2 x820 is supported ?
    Vineet Saini says yes

    No Vineet Saini never said yes. He is just asking is it supported or not?

    For now, take it as Le Max 2 x820 and x821 are not supported.
    I will add if I will find any build for these two models.
