Please Help: Bricked Pinebook Pro with Keyboard Update
#1
This is embarrassing. But I could really use some advice.

I bricked my computer trying to update the keyboard/touchpad firmware using this repo: https://github.com/jackhumbert/pinebook-...rd-updater

The problem is that I installed the ISO instead of the ANSI, so now my keys are all mismatched. 

One option seems to be to try to map the new keys to the old keys. But since I've only got the password field of the login to work with, it's tough to verify what's what.

Any better advice? I'm open to reinstalling the OS or just about anything.
