Installing debian on pinebook pro (deb installer/emmc)
#11
No dice I'm afraid! I did try modifying /etc/default/u-boot replacing the line in it with U_BOOT_ROOT="root=LABEL_ROOT_DEBIAN" . I've attached a picture of this btw.

I also checked with fdisk and found the emmc (while on its usb adapter) dosen't start at 32768 but 251904 so guessing that won't work. 

I'll try again with just the one partiton starting at 32768.

Update: I tried again with one partiton starting at 32768 and this time it looks like things worked ok :-) . Will post back here later to show what I did (pretty much just fdisk'd on another computer starting at 32768, installed via the debian installer, chroot, ran u-boot-update /dev/sda and then tried booting off the emmc).
