For a compact regular locale X, put B=O(X)¬¬​ and O(γX)=Idl(B). This locale is extremally disconnected. Its natural surjection to X has inverse image
a⟼⋁u≺a​↓(¬¬u).

The Joyal extension lemma gives the frame homomorphism; its injectivity follows by recovering a as the join of the regular opens in this ideal.
