I've been on a similar adventure, just with a bit more limited scope.
As of 0.7.9, the linux images from ayufan (huge thanks to him, btw) only support the pine64-supplied pci-e sata controller if you go with one of the Bionic minimal releases. From my experiments so far, it seems that if you really want a window manager your best bet is i3. There's a script:
`sudo /usr/local/sbin/install_desktop.sh i3`
For whatever reason (which dependency /is/ it? I don't know yet), installing lxde, mate, or xfce cause some kind of conflict that results in a total lockup when you access the pine64 pci-e sata controller. Will you please test this with the various pci-e cards you are experimenting with? More info might help figure out exactly where the bug lies in those builds.
