  We analyse the flux-induced scalar potential for type IIA orientifolds in the
presence of $p$-form, geometric and non-geometric fluxes. Just like in the
Calabi-Yau case, the potential presents a bilinear structure, with a factorised
dependence on axions and saxions. This feature allows one to perform a
systematic search for vacua, which we implement for the case of geometric
backgrounds. Guided by stability criteria, we consider configurations with a
particular on-shell F-term pattern, for which we derive a no-go result for de
Sitter extrema. We classify branches of supersymmetric and non-supersymmetric
vacua, and argue that the latter are perturbatively stable for a large subset
of them. Our solutions reproduce and generalise previous results in the
literature, obtained either from the 4d or 10d viewpoint.
