How to boot from the SD card and install to eMMC?

However, my Pinebook Pro refuses to boot from the SD card as long as the internal eMMC drive is swithced on. After switching it off with the little toggle under the hood, I can boot from SD card but then... How to install to the internal drive?

Can anyone point me to some clear instructions either on the wiki or these forums? For a noob it's completely confusing...

Thanks! Smile

I found a post saying to update the PC with the Mrfixit script first. I did this, but I still cannot boot from the SD card that I loaded Manjaro to. I'm looking for a solution as well.
