It should not be that difficult if only the userland works with the fairly dated range of kernels supported by n9.

That said, you may want to also consider Maemo Leste ... they haven't updated N9 support in a bit, but can definitely help you with it. With postmarketOS you'll likely be stuck to something like XFCE4 only due to non-working 3d acceleration. Leste has the acceleration working on N900 and Droid 4, and it's very likely they could help you get it up and running on N9 too

EDIT: Looks like 3d has worked on pmOS after all, at some point, https://twitter.com/fi1ippz/status/9...194349056?s=09.
Leaving the previous text intact though, since you'll likely still get better accel support on Leste than anywhere else.

i estimate the chances of still getting help here near zero, nevertheless i try it. so i want to put ubiboot on my two recently received n950s. on both when i try to flash the ubiboot kernel the flasher says the image is too big for the partition. i even tried the small image. maybe it is because both n950 are the 512MB ram version? funny thing is that one of them is black with 16GB storage, the other one is silver with 64GB storage.
