Thanks Andrew...
I've tried 2 different SD cards...just bought a small (8gb) one yesterday, and 2 different usb cables.
I verified this new card with H2testw, and it tested fine.
I don't know if my writer is slow, or if the speed is OK, but it wrote around 9.6MB/s and verified at 17.9MB/s....
The supply I have *should* be OK, it's 2.5A, and it's the largest I have.
I measured the voltage on the Pine64 with a meter, and it read 5.1V, so it's not a problem with the cable resistance (and since the voltage isn't dipping, probably not a problem with the supply).
Both SD cards, and both cables result in the exact same results...
It never fluctuates.
The Arch Linux always stops at "host_choice finished 86!".
Android and Remix stop on the boot screen.
I'm really wondering if the board is defective.
Anyone have any other ideas to debug (without serial)?
