I tried again and was able to boot android. Perhaps I did something wrong with pheonixcard before. I couldn't find the version that matches the instructions so i tried a few. However, neither ethernet nor wifi is working. Wifi dongle isn't recognized.

Is setup required for ethernet?

UPDATE: My issue was resolved by trying different cards. Finally found a couple that work. Note that I have a PNY class 4 that works pretty well but not as well as I like given the hw specs. I bought this specificially to run kodi. So far it seems the linux side of things on the opi-pc are too challenging to run kodi on linux. Therefore I'm using android. This set runs about as well as kodi on the rpi b v 1 and osmc. While this is acceptable for my needs I hope the software side improves.
