I have a Doogee s88 pro, I am using a modified twrp and have maneged to install twrp and root it successfully with the OEM key.

However, I want to install a custom gsi. I was initially having problems with /system not being mounted but the universal tool fixed that issue.

I can now mount /system. However, when I try to install through twrp I get the error:
"Image file is larger than target device"

I tried to flash via fastboot after this, however that requires booting to fastbootd to be able to erase system and install the gsi on system which twrp replaces.

How do I go about installing a gsi on this phone?

either look for a gsi rom small enought to fit your system partition or you could try erasing product to free up little more space (product isn't very large though)

If u can't find a smaller gsi and u format system partition still unable to install gsi .so the best option is to resize ur phone partitions by adding additional space to ur system partition,with this u cannot only be able to install a gsi but u can also install the highest Gapps on ur system partition.
