Dumb question: do I have to use pmbootstrap?
#1
I downloaded and extracted
PHP Code:
pine-pinephone-20200210-phosh.img 
from here: https://images.postmarketos.org/pinephone/

What I was hoping to do was just use Etcher to flash it to an sdcard and put that in the phone. Is that impossible?

If I have to use pmbootstrap, do I do that after Etcher has already put it on the sdcard? On the phone itself? If the latter, does a command line come up while it's booting?? I'm not getting how this works. Blush

Hang on. Just found this youtube howto on Rob Braxman's page.

The similar one for Ubuntu Touch was helpful.  I'll see how I go.

Edited to add: Nope. Mainly the ubuntu install. Doesn't answer the pmbootstrap questions.
