It occurred to me that the worst thing that could happen if just using Etcher didn't work was that it wouldn't boot. I'm fairly used to that by now Big Grin

So I did that, and of course it booted off the sd card. W00T!

That is one really nice OS. Much better discoverability than ubports, which is important to me because I don't know what I'm doing.

Sees the SIM without any problems or backchat. And does SMS/text messages both sending and receiving! (Ubports was ignoring my SIM.) What more does anyone need? Big Grin
