Just purchased a used PBP (with no eMMC!) - any tips for a new user?
#10
From ameridroid, emmc are not that expensive
Booting from nvme requires uboot on emmc or sd (or SPI, not recommended)
To explain, there are 2 different and separate boots, boot ROM in cpu
searches SPI, emmc, sd for idbloader (and NOT nvme)
idbloader loads uboot which has its own and different search order for OS (which may include nvme)
An example
boot_targets=mmc1 usb0 nvme0 mmc0 pxe dhcp sf0 ....(mmc1=sd)
