Don't worry, it is virtually impossible to brick your PinePhone!
If you build a decent SDcard and insert that you should boot fine from SDcard despite whatever state your eMMC is in. Start here in the wiki.
I succesfully reset the OS by only on SD card as now.
I tried use Pine64 Installer, but the feature drag and drop (if custom system has been choosen) didn't work well, and i have NOT IDEA AT ALL what type of board i should choose from A64.
Instead of Pine64 Installer i just used Balena Etcher. So, the all testing enviroment looks like:
1. Master Computer (CPU) : SYSTEM => PC (Amd64 Athlone) : Debian-Jessie
2. Slave device (CPU) : SYSTEM => PinePhone (Arm64) : Manjaro Linux
3. Source of OS file image: from dedicated PinePhone wiki site link to Manjaro image file OS
4. SD card used via PC onboard/internal card reader (no USB cable at all, no external USB card reader).
Some informations:
- Manjaro works fine, but relatively slow
- After PinePhone power button pressed OS started after while (not immediately, no light message from diode that something happen, but OS is already booting so a little bit patience was needed)
- some feature of Manjaro did not work correctly like checking battery details
- I have no idea also how to transfer Manjaro OS System from SD card to EMMC memory (and if it's good idea, but OS from SD card work a little bit slow then I expected)
- I have been trying install PostmarketOS (as preferred OS) but seems like I can't install pip3 (python 3.4 package installer), so I let it go away this OS and will try with Ubuntu via Balena Etcher and will see what next
Anybody know what is preferred board for PinePhone from Pine64 installer? Or maybe there is not at all?
Every time I tried use OS for A64 PineBook it doesn't work good. Result after insert and power on PinePhone was just strong light from diode (rear camera) and nothing more (I waited more then 20 minutes, but no results... :/
I believe Ubuntu will menage better with PinePhone then Manjaro.
I am also looking for some idea how to write OS directly to EMMC via USB c Cable (included with PinePhone). My PC Debian OS recognized PinePhone device as following:
Code:
#lsusb
