I don't know if it's my hardware or my SD card or what.
I installed PINN sucessfully, and on the first boot, it seemed to load fine. Then, when I tried to install a few OSes, it timed out saying
"Error downloading meta file". Rebooted to ensure cache and everything was fine, tried again, same issue.
Reinstalled PINN, tried installing OSes, and it worked. Later, I had a configuration issue and had to reinstall. And again "Error downloading meta file". Rebooted twice, reinstalled twice, nothing but hanging on "The install process will begin shortly" and "Error downloading distribution list".
Very, very finicky and unstable.
And no, it's not my WiFi. I can open the Online Help browser and it will load pages fine.
