Bootloop after LineageOS 17.1 OTA Update on FP3

Hello again,

has anyone followed the new instructions on the FP3 help page from LOS?
Install LineageOS on FP3 | LineageOS Wiki

They now explain a way to copy partitions as an important step:
" In some cases slot b can be unpopulated or contain much older firmware than slot a , leading to various issues including a potential hard-brick. We can ensure none of that will happen by copying the contents of slot a to slot b . This step is NOT optional."

Any experience reports appreciated!

All the best, Jens

EDIT: The instructions described there can easily applied later; relevant to those who installed LOS on the FP3 before the copy-partition part was included. See description here
