Trying to set the Music folder on the SD card for my #Pinephone is a nightmare.

* I changed the ~/.config/users-dirs.dirs folder, it didn't work with the SD card automatically mounted
* Mounting the SD card with fstab prevented the device from booting
* Back to JumpDrive to restore the fstab file
* SD card prevents booting
* Formatted SD card again, device won't boot
* Apparently battery went from 92% to zero in a short second
* Device is now powered off and recharging.

What a sh*tshow. 🤬

@normandc You're making me think that a netbook with a cell card+SIP trunk+Bluetooth and bag might be more functional. SD cards just suck. Hope your persistence pays off and that my Librem 5 works without too much brain damage, IF it shows up.

@daniel
I also had a lot of trouble with SD cards for a single-board computer (Olimex A20) I got back in 2017. They are indeed a pain. But, reading the PINE64 forum and the Mobian matrix channel, I'm apparently the only one on the planet with these SD card slot issues on the #Pinephone. 🙄
