According to the device page (Info about Fairphone FP5 - FP5) the 6/128 GB model is not supported (not listed). Based on the option to buy this variant and multiple installation reports the device page should be updated.
Thanks

Hello,
I tried to install Murena /e/OS on a Fairphone 5 with the web installer though it failed for two reasons:
The web installer as well as the command line instructions do not mention that specific USB drivers must be installed on the PC to allow communication (especially in fastboot mode) between PC and telephone. Those drivers are offered automatically by windows as optional updates after connecting the phone to the PC for the first time. Lineage OS documentation does mention that for many telephones. This information is direly missing from the first steps of web installer.
Secondly, the web installer does not provide phone specific instructions to unable OEM unlock. This defeats the purpose of the “easy” web installer. We must include either a list of instructions for each different device in the first steps or start the phone detection before those generic steps and include the correct phone specific instructions for OEM unlock.
In the case of fairphone, we need a link to the official support page providing the unlock code.
