Do you get a red charge light?
Do you get a boot led?
Did you try something (that works) in the uSD socket?
Have you tried a "long press"? (20+s)
Did you gently press eMMC (into socket)?
I am assuming that you had a working OS on eMMC

Thanks for that - but it's fixed. It seems if the battery is too low charging will not  even switch on? I suspect around 3.5v? I charged the battery from a lab power supply at 4.0 v which has done the trick.

But now a problem -  cannot connect to the network. I don't use Manjaro normally, I use RiscOS - both bootable from separate sd cards.

I had stiff hinge (now fixed) - broken case, so was sent ANSI keyboard to replace ISP one...

If possible can we switch to email? richard@torrens.org
