Good news everyone.
After being stuck and not getting anything to work, I contacted the Pine64 team.
They were pretty responsive, and sent me a new 2GB board.
I just received that replacement board today.
Since I already had SD cards programmed and ready to go, I just popped one in, and the board booted right away!
I'm up and running (writing this post on it right now).
Turns out I did have a bum board the first time around.
But I'm really pleased with the support from the Pine team.
It can't be easy to support the massive demand they had, but I'm glad they took care of me the way they did.
Now...on to developing!
Using the latest Ubuntu (which seems to boot in about 30s), and having a great time.
