How to enter flash mode
This device doesn't have a flash mode, but you do have to go into the BIOS and change the boot order to boot from external drive first before installation. Make sure that you change this back afterwards as this can be a security risk. (e.g. somebody could take your computer and bypass your password using another USB stick with Linux.)
Installation
pmbootstrap init
- Select `microsoft` as manufacturer and `x64surface` as device.
- Plug in USB or MicroSD drive
pmbootstrap install --disk=[name of drive, check using fdisk -l (usually /dev/sdb)]
- Reboot into newly flashed drive
- Repeat steps 1 through 4, but replace the name of your drive with the name of your SSD (usually /dev/sda)
