I did try to boot NetBSD from SD but alas no glory. No display on the screen, not even scrambled this time.

Downloading Armbian at the moment. I will proceed with that tomorrow.
In the mean time I took my first dive into the depths of ArchLinux by reading and watching instruction-videos and really enjoying it.
