Is there anyone use official openwrt releases/19.07.4 on BPI-R2?

Is the internal wifi working properly？Can SATA be used properly?

Is there a simple way to quick install?

Can I use a wireless network card with usb interface for AP?

on r2 sata should work without problem as it works in mainline linux without any modification. as you found out internal wifi and hdmi is not included as it requires additional Patches which are not upstream (hdmi will be upstream with 5.10). USB-wifi should work if driver is compiled in

Imho sysupgrade is a simple img which you install via dd,but i guess if your partition sheme is different to running system you lose your settings
