I was following these instructions to install Arch Linux ARM on my pinebook:

and when I got to the last step I tried to reboot the computer by turning it off and this triggered the red LED light to turn on. 

I tried typing “reboot” but failed because I was inside chroot.

I have tried to boot from an sd card but failed.

I have tried holding the power button for 20 secs but failed.

Any help will be appreciated.
On step 13 it says It vomits the idbloader and u-boot in /boot and points to where it should go. Did you dd those 2 files before the reboot? I'm still newish so forgive my ignorance if you did already. If not try to dd those files as stated after step 13. Then reboot. I wonder if those dd commands should be placed within step 13 and not after. But that's all I got hope it helps.
