Good Morning Pineland -
First, I am not really a noob even though this issue will sound like it! I have used Linux almost 20 years and ARM chips about 5...
Got my new Pinebook64 Pro a few days ago and love it. Couldn't wait to try some other distros. But I could not get it to boot from the MicroSD any way I tried. Ran updates, etc. to no avail. Then I tried the keyboard update for ANSI keyboard and it seemed to run fine, and requested a reboot.
After the reboot, the keyboard is mapped completely differently and I can't even enter the username or password.
I booted with an external keyboard, which works fine, and checked the keyboard setup, which was still reporting US English. I added a second layout, deleted the US English, and re-added US English. No dice.
So I guess my questions are:

So I guess my questions are:
- How do I get the correct keyboard layout back?
- And, once I do that, how do I get the MicroSD to boot?
