USB adapter to eMMC module not recognized - danril - 11-25-2022
Hello,
As I am trying to boot Pinebook Pro from a Pine64 USB adapter to eMMc module, when I plug the adapter into my Linux computer or laptop after having inserted the eMMC card into it, it is not mounted as a regular USB drive nor does it show in the file manager. The sudo fdisk -l command does not recognize it either. Therefore, neither Echer nor the dd command manually entered from a terminal can flash an OS image to the eMMC, even though the adapter's light shows when it is plugged into the computer.
As this seems to be a software issue, any hint or advice helping me to copy an OS image (e.g., Manjaro ARM or other) with the adapter from my computer or laptop to the Pinebook Pro eMMC module would be much appreciated.
