But I will make it easy for you (although I recently wrote it up for someone else....): 

1) Get the installer utility for your PC (Mac/Win/Linux) 
2) Select 'Choose and OS' and Make sure to select Pinebook from the drop down menu (!!!)
3) Choose the OS you want; make sure it says Pinebook eMMC in brackets next to the OS
4) Insert a SD card into your PC 
5) flash the image (follow instructions)
6) take the SD out and place it into your Pinebook
7) follow the install to eMMC procedure outlined on screen

Installer utility does not run on Linux. Tried on 2 machines. Ubuntu 18.04LTS

Another way to get a SD Card prepared for boot with Pinebook?

After upgrading 16GB to 64 GB which did not happen in the HK factory, nothing is coming on the display/screen after the switch on light is ON.

Looking forward to some tips to get the Pinebook back to life.

Cheers
Tristan
