I immediately cloned the default Manjaro installation from the 64gb emmc to the 128gb emmc I ordered along with the pbp; opened it up and made the swap. Working nice and smoothly
Also, the unit I got booted properly from the get go and wifi was enabled out of the box. I didn't experience any of these known issues with some units.
Btw, I tried to boot up an SD card with Manjaro XFCE for Pinebook Pro https://manjaro.org/downloads/official/xfce/ but it was not booting up or either taking an extraordinarily long time. I tried the Debian default build and it booted from SD card without any issue. Might be Manjaro XFCE related.
Anyway, just dropped by to say that this is one solid machine and well-built and thanks so much for bringing this product
In terms of taking a long time to boot - this is a known issue. It usually actually is booted, it just stays on the splash screen (for some reason, I don't know why). If you press Esc you'll be able to log in.
