Mobian + tow boot + emmc flash = boot loop
#1
Hello,

I recently installed tow-boot to get wake-from-suspend working, and I saw that it was supposed to make flashing to emmc possible as well.

I followed the instructions on the wiki, flashing once from an SD card boot of mobian, and another time from my desktop by booting the pinephone pro as a usb mass storage device. Both times when I try to reboot I get a red light, and then an amber light, repeat.

I used dd every time. I flashed the *.img file from the latest Mobian weekly build.

Before flashing I saw some people claim that mobian will work on emmc after installing tow-boot, but is it possible that it still doesn't for some devices? Is it maybe the version of mobian that I'm using? Something else maybe?

Thanks for reading.
