Got the explorer edition today, has Manjaro on it that errors out when attempting update, youtube playback quite poor, etc.... Whats the most practical way to make the 'mmc' unbootable so I can load distros from SD ? do I have to use the UART via headphone jack ? Or is there something actually practical
Thanks !
My PPPEE borked on first update as well. I was able to drop into terminal and complete the updates manually.
However, if you wish to proceed with an SD image, it's true that PPPEE boots from EMMC first.... BUT the factory image on EMMC will check the SD card for a bootable image, and if found, will boot from the SD card instead of proceeding to boot from EMMC. So as long as you *don't* wipe the EMMC, you are able to flash a bootable image to SD, and boot to that image just by inserting the SD card.
