Need some reinsurance about this situation.

Should I use the flash builds that the wiki recommends or should I use the build that the last poster recommends??

When in doubt, trust the wiki. And read the Peacock sticky.

The wiki and the my last post both say the same thing. Follow the wiki. Initially flash the trailed build from the wiki, and then Upgrade to 18000 as long as you don't need SSH.

I suggest that you read the peacock announcement, as was suggested. It explains trailed builds, subsequent builds, different build types...AND to FOLLOW the WIKI when you flash initially. Basically it answers everything you have asked, and lots that you haven't.

just make sure you use a mini build first.
