I'm stuck on the second step: after I finish dd LXDE image to my microsd card I insert it to PBP, boot and.... standard preinstalled Debian boots instead of written Ubuntu image. Microsd is mounted in the Debian system, but not starting on the power on.
I'm completely new to arm devices, and cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Hi, have you run the Debian update script in stock image? That icon in system tray, it should update uboot to allow booting from sdcard.

This applied for with and without the microSD card in the PBP. I ran pretty much the exact dd command, with the img from MrFixit2001's github (Debian Desktop Community Build Image [microSD to eMMC] by mrfixit2001 from https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/Pinebo...an_Desktop)

Has anyone else experienced this? Note: The OpenSesame screen never shows, just power on -> green light -> no green light -> power off, then repeats until I turn off the power. From my few hours experiencing the PBP I love it, and I'd like it back Smile

I am very sorry about that, but... why exactly you burned Debian image instead of Ubuntu? That OS was already installed on emmc, so this guide was meant to install Ubuntu image...

Yes, I ran the script. Today will try Mate instead of LXDE. There is almost no chance that it will change anything, but at least I try...
