Unable to boot up [Solved]

[dkryder]

i have only used the xenial and it works good. but one thing i did learn is the kernel update process about a month ago, maybe it has been fixed, would update with the pine64 kernel which would not boot and actually behaved just like the description by bobpaul. i also just looked and the image has been removed from the resources tab of the page i mentioned. another thing i wanted to mention about something i do with sodimm cards, mostly memory but also the sopine, is to clean with alcohol and insert/remove several times because there is always a chance for some type of manufacturing coatings on the trace tabs or connectors of the card or the baseboard. also,bobpaul, give etcher a try on writing the image just to eliminate the possibility of your command and/or dd not handling the image properly.
