I have a similar experience. I am using a Astro-PC Pro and flash Stellarmate X to a 1TB Crucial nvme drive. Occasionally it will boot to Kstars and I can do some configuration but on re-boot I just get the Ikarus Stellarmate X splash screen and that's it.
I re-downloaded the file and re-installed a few times but most of the time it just freezes on the Stellarmate X splash screen on the first boot.
Maybe someone has better luck?

Go to settings, configure Kstars, fits, look and feel and tick the "independent window" box, apply.
It's been a while since I've used Kstars but I think ticking that box should give you a tab you can click to bring the fits viewer to the front.

That Raxda sounds interesting. I've been using a NanoPC-T4 for a few years now, it also has an m.2 nvme slot. I also use Armbian and am curious if you have tried writing the OS to the nvme? I do that with armbian config on the NanoPC and it is quite a bit faster than the emmc.
Do you use the wifi/bluetooth adapter? How is the wifi range? Thanks for bringing this up here

It's grayed out here too but vnc works. It looks like x11vnc is loading on boot, I don't use Stellarmate much lately and don't remember if I installed it or maybe it comes installed with Stellarmate now. Take a look at "internet" in the drop down menu.

I can't tell about any best practices as I don't have the mount. I love the tiny size and light weight of that mount and big carrying capacity but am unsure about the backdriving issue. I would like to image unattended, at least some of the time and I'm sure I couldn't sleep, worrying about it, so I'm holding off.. I'm looking at a couple of other mounts too but I keep coming back to the rainbow. I didn't read the whole thread on CN, was there any talk about a brake for the 135 like they have on the 300 model?
