- Download and flash jumpdrive to an sd card
- Put the card in your phone and boot
(Jumpdrive exposes the internal phone memory to your computer as a mass storage device.)
- Plug your phone into your computer
- Flash the new image directly to your phone storage with balena, DD, win32diskimager, Chrome Recovery Software, or whatever flashing utility you like and works on your computer.

Encryption still seems to have some bugs. So be cognizant of that.

Also be aware pmOS does not support direct flashing unless using a demo image, so if you want to go back you would need to read up on pmbootstrap and it's usage.
 So to get rid of pmOS on internal storage and put any one I like on there I would use the jump drive method? Is Pm bootstrap method only for getting pmOS back on internal storage?

And if I have to do pmbootstrap method where would you suggest is the best guide for me to read?

Yes you would use the jump drive method.

You could flash a demo pmos directly but it's not recommended. The pmOS wiki has info about pmbootstrap.
