What is working

ssh over usb
display works (changed the imgType to RGBA_8888 in mdss_fb.c with a patch like this)
charging is working
touch is working with initfs hook to reset the touchscreen driver similar to this, but like this:

#!/bin/sh
echo 1 > /sys/class/i2c-dev/i2c-1/device/1-0020/drv_irq
echo 1 > /sys/class/i2c-dev/i2c-1/device/1-0020/reset

How to enter flash mode

Connect a USB cable
Power the device off
Hold power + volume down
The device should now boot in bootloader mode
Volume down moves down in the list
Volume up selects item on list
Power button reboots the device in normal mode
fastboot will now work

Before flashing

The bootloader needs to be unlocked before custom firmware can be flashed, twrp or a similar recovery tool is not needed but it helps. To unlock the bootloader follow the instructions on this page: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a

Installing

$ pmbootstrap init #select all the options and packages that you want
$ pmbootstrap install #create rootfs and boot image
$ pmbootstrap export --no-install #extract the boot.img
$ sudo fastboot flash:raw boot /tmp/postmarketOS-export/boot.img-motorola-condor #path and names could be different but the comand above will tell you where to look
$ pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs #this will flash to the system partition which is about 900MB

If your rootfs is too large:

$ sudo fastboot erase system #otherwise it may boot something on that partition
$ pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs --partition userdata #this will flash to the userdata partition
