Download the update file, write it to the SD card, insert it into Star64 and turn on the power. Wait for the update to finish (about 1-2 minutes) and turn off Star64. You can burn the ArmbianTV image to the same SD card and now it will work. I recommend using the LEGACY version, all the hardware works in it. The CURRENT and EDGE versions are test versions with a new kernel, some of the hardware is not working in them yet. If you need a working browser, I recommend using Alt Linux images, they have a full-fledged browser.

Thank you once again. I just got Sid Legacy - XFCE booted (though I'm still only using the serial console for now).  WiFi is working and all is well thus far.

I've seen a few other places mention that doing an apt update is not advisable. Is that the case for your current build?

My final question would be, is there anything I can do to help test?
