Okay fantastic! Good call and thank you for that. It took me a minute to figure out where to locate flash_all.sh but I took your advice and started going through it step by step. I my guess is that one of the partitions may have been corrupted by the previous owner of the phone? I dunno. I do know that I was not able to make the fastboot screen show that slot a was active until running through the script line by line. There were only a few lines, so easy enough. I flashed manually to partition b and then to a. Then things started to work as they should. I outline my procedure below, largely for my own notes, as I will be doing this once again when my daughter's phone arrives, as well as on all three of them once 11 goes stable.

FROM THE TOP, I ENABLED ADB AND FOLLOWED THE SCRIPT:

ONCE PIXELDUST WAS RUNNING, I WENT INTO THE BOOTLOADER TO FLASH THE MAGISK IMAGE ... SLOT A WAS THE ACTIVE ONE AGAIN ...

THIS LAST STEP RESULTED IN BOOTLOOPS SO I STARTED OVER ...

Once I was back in PixelDust, I reflashed to both slots without erasing userdata or rebooting. I then just hit "Start" (power button) on the phone. PixelDust booted normally, I installed Magisk manager, let it do its thing, ran the "hide" stuff and am now rooted and passing safety net.

Thanks again!
