Flash new OS on Pinephone?

The Wiki explains most things like this: https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php?title=..._Jumpdrive

Most people prefer to flash to SD card first unless you're committed to the one OS. With a good quality SD card, you probably won't notice much difference in performance. Flashing to SD is quicker than flashing to eMMC. I'm not sure there is a way to install from SD to eMMC. I imagine the Wiki method is best. 

Good luck.

Edit: I just saw your update. That's a better way to get it working. I'll leave that info above just in case someone is unsure.
