Mobian bust again after dist-upgrade?

I tried shutting down and booting instead of just a restart. Now I cannot boot from the SD card with mobian on it at all. Or at least not in the same way I started it up til now. Double press and short hold on the power button normally did the trick but now nothing. 

I just checked to see if it was a coincidental hardware failure but the PPP boots OK from Manjaro/Plasma which came installed on the eMMC.

Anyone else experiencing anything similar?

Yes, Mobian Pinephone did the same to me a couple of weeks ago after I impatiently did a full-upgrade to get past persistent "held back" packages.  That's what I get for enjoying a late-night whiskey and updating before bed!  I am booting an old Mobian SD, which has Chatty and Phosh (and a bunch of others) held back.  No SMS/MMS, but otherwise usable.

Been checking for a new image to start over, but they seem to not have published a PP weekly in over 3 weeks.
