The 6 most common reasons why Pine64 won't boot

  1. The official Android and RemixOS images can't be burned the usual way to an SD card (dd, Rufus, WinDiskimager) but need Phoenix Card instead (Windows only and causing all sorts of troubles for users that do not use this strange operating system). Burning an Android image the wrong way will result in the Pine64 waiting endlessly while showing already a red led lighting.
Did this used to be true, and is no longer? 

Or was it never true? Since I first got my Pine, I've been using Win32DiskImager (once, I used Rufus), with the wiki images, and I've had nary a problem.

In any case, it ought to be edited to correct the error.
