Xiaomi.eu ROM already inlcudes GApps. But what does this have to do with GSI?
Ehhhhh, richtig I forgot, that you don`t have good skills in english leanguage .... I say simple, can I install GSI when I am on current xiaomi.eu, and if exist Gapps etc. And if this ROM can be used for daily use, or only for experiment?

I recommend installed xiaomi.eu ROM. I haven't got GSI booting on Stock ROM (Global).
I use CAOS as daily driver. The missing fringerprint functionality and BT audio is okay. MIUI's bugs are more heavier.

What buys does MIUI have as I haven't come across any.

There's a Bluetooth fix in the treble guide section for music streaming.. No 90hz either?

When google cast is connected MIUI won't show a volume toggle bar and you have to go to the settings to toggle phones volume.
When using VoLTE and VoWIFI you cant enable your speaker during a call, because it disables your microphone.
There are some UI glitches.
Dark Mode is buggy, destroys some apps and won't list all apps in dark mode per app section.
And many little things...

Sounds like the GSI has worse bugs as you'll lose the key selling points of the phone

System Partition

Has anyone had issues with flashing to the system using fastboot flash system system.img?I cant get past the below error:

Sending sparse 'system' 1/4 (786428 KB) OKAY [ 17.719s]
Writing 'system' FAILED (remote: 'Partition not found')
fastboot: error: Command failed

Ive also tried through TWRP though am unable to mount the system partition either even though it is shown to be mounted.

Use fastbootd like it says in post 1 of the guide

The normal fastboot only have access to the super partition, that includes sysetem, vendor, etc.

You have to go to userspace fastboot (fastbootd) to flash the system. Just follow the guide step by step.

Hi there,

Thank you for clairfying though im still having some trouble. I am able to reboot into Fastbootd though my pc is unable to detect that it is connected it just says waiting for devices after reboot to fastboot using fastboot. I also attempted to follow the steps by wiping data and selectin connect with MiAssistant thinking that i would be able to boot into fastbootd from here though i was unable to do so. Then i tried to download a version of MiAssistant in english though im unable to find this as well.

After you entered the Mi Assistant option in stock recovery you have to execute
Code:
adb reboot fastboot
.
You dont need to install Mi Assistant.
