SD Card Flash Instructions:

  • Download image linked above, verify SHASUM is correct
  • Decompress the image (should have just a .img extension when its done full size ~7GB when decompressed)
  • Use an easy cloner tool like etcher (etcher.io) or dd etc if your know what your doing
  • Insert SD card in your computer, select the the decompressed apollo.img file, and select the SD card you inserted
  • Flash away...this will return your SD card back to stock state

Is there an update thread to upgrading the NVME and flashing the card?
