Flash new OS on Pinephone?
#1
Obviously a useful feature. I have a micro SD plugged in with Arch flashed on it. How do I install arch?

Never-mind I am a dingus. However I won't delete this in the hopes it may help someone out...

Insert your SD card in the top slot not the bottom!

[EDIT]

It now seems that OS's that I am trying to install are not booting properly. When an image is flashed with etcher and inserted (in the top) card slot, the OS should boot on launch, correct? Currently the screen stays black and a red light appears at the top left hand of the device.
