NVMe timeout when booting from eMMC but not SD
10-29-2021, 07:41 AM
I've found a stable-enough setup for my Pinebook Pro with a Kingston A2000 NVMe - I've installed the pre-release of Tow-Boot from here. Now, my NVMe drive is properly detected almost every time, with some failures after reboot. Even then, after a reboot from the Tow-boot UI (it has a menu for selecting the boot device) everything works OK. Now my Debian installation (with encrypted root, thanks to danielt's debian installer) is booting and usable again.
The only caveat is that the microSD slot is still broken, but this was also the case with pcm720's U-boot build, as I mentioned before.
