Started up PBP with SD card Ayufan Ubuntu-mate image
all is well,
update and upgrade via wifi
EMMC boot partition is still present
mount my SSD drive,
copy root file system from SD card tot the SSD partition.
Reboot. All is well except Wifi
Tried all topics in this thread, no luck yet......
I've tried just about everything too. Mine holds wifi for just about exactly 5min after each reboot then dies.
Not sure if you saw that the manjaro wifi firmware is here and a newer version:

I tried to replace the firmware on my system (according to what I discussed in the 'trackpad update' thread) but I'm not sure if I did it correctly - maybe this could help you. I'll have another fiddle myself when I have more time and let all know if I find a fix.
I have a hunch that some machines have bad wifi chips or are overheating. I opened my pinebook up and the antenna was connected properly to the card, so kind of out of options at this point
