I get a flash of red light then it goes off. (using correct power supply and everything else as advised)
Why was there no single A4 sheet of paper included with the pine to show that the connectors were and how to plug things in. Its ridiculous to have to search online just to work out how to put it together. Even the FAQ and getting started guides don't have this info.
Not an impressive start.
You just bought a development board from Kickstarter, at a price that's outstanding. It's expected that there will be many trials and tribulations while working the kinks out of this board. If you need more support, the Raspberry Pi is hands down the best candidate. I disagree with you, in that I think it makes perfect sense to use the Internet to get PINE64 pinouts, just like I do with every other board, or electronics item.
