This should already be enabled. As it is not, you need to download the latest SDF.bin and put it in the MakeMKV data directory. Restart MakeMKV and it should be absorbed in to _private_data.tar and the drive should be libredrive enabled.

No. The firmware is post 11/2022 and cannot be cross-flashed at this stage. You will have to wait for possible future cross-flash support.
