It's the sd card!
#1
Hi there,

After some trouble and after buying hipo USB chargers etc, it turns out that it was the sd card!  A Kingston 32gb card wouldn't boot past the first screen.  A Sandisk 16gb runs like a boss!  I tried various burns, power supplies etc and none of them mattered.  It was the sd card.  I've got two pines so now I'll try a sandisk 32gb for the second one.

My pine is running fine via a ue boom usb charger and the flat yellow cable that came with it.  I burned remix using phoenix and my laptop.

Good luck!  I figured I should let people know what worked for me.  Someone needs to work up a list of sd cards that work.  Add the cheapest (in australia) Sandisk 16gb.  It's at least a 10x one, but seriously the cheapest.

cheers john

Oh and the wifi module just plugs in and works. So did my logitech usb thing - plugged it in when I got to the first option screen on first boot and it instantly worked. Good stuff!
