I was able to get the SOPine module to boot (headless) without issue on the baseboard using the latest version of Armbian Stretch, which is why I figured I could just plug it in to the clusterboard and just continue on my way without noticing anything different. At some point this weekend I may search the Armbian forums and post my findings there if no one else has.
I was thinking I should copy the console boot sequences and compare the two for differences at some point, maybe that would reveal why Stretch works on the baseboard and not the clusterboard. I will say that if you do get a baseboard, the coaxial power jack that Pine chose is somewhat fragile with a cable plugged in - that is, the extra leverage provided by the cable can break the jack away from it's mounts easier than you think. I'm powering it via the Euler bus pins right now...
If I have time in the coming week, I will boot a module on both and post my results.
