EDIT: it worked to the linux prompt (but no GUI)

I was overwriting the default kernel with the one ...

If you've cloned from GotHub, there is no need to update the kernel, it is already the newest.
The script creates only the minimal Ubuntu/debian system without any Desktop/GUI.
You can install desired Desktop directly on OPI running one of the included instal_xxx_desktop (in /usr/local/bin)

I'm getting better

. Figured out how to change directories and see what they contained. Installed Ubuntu wily. Ran fs_resize. Re-boot. Ran nmcli. Ran install_xfce_desktop. Re-boot. Everything worked untill desktop. No desktop.

@Survive-PI make sure you have internet connectivity.

Post the result of "ifconfig"

Also, try "ping www.google.com"

what "nmcli" command line did you run exactly?

Down to one sd card now. Of 3 I had, only 2 worked with orange pi. one of them locked up the other day.
Any way to forcibly reformat? Windows unable to format, SDFormatter unable to format. Both think it is locked... Tried format button on my camera...no luck. Trash?Could it be same problem with emmc?
Switching back to openSuse for now.
