Is it possible to install Ubuntu MATE on a Raspberry Pi clone?

I have an ROC-RK3328-CC RENEGADE Pi clone. It's supposed to be an almost 1to1 of the Pi 3B+. On Libre's website, they have different starter flavors of OS's for it, but I was wondering if anyone has been able to get Ubuntu MATE running on it? All I get is a black screen when trying to boot after flashing the OS with no blinking activity. I'm guessing the ROC has special drivers/firmware that has to be tended to before any old OS can be installed.

If anyone can help, it'd be great!

Ubuntu Mate not directly.

You can install Armbian Renegade – Armbian and then install ubuntu-mate-desktop

sudo apt install --install-recommends ubuntu-mate-desktop

to get similar results.
