I wanted to test Mobian, but for this the phone has to be flashed with tow-boot. I have downloaded the tow-boot image and flashed to SD card. Before the SD card was flashed with Jumpdrive. 
So what I have finally done is flashed EMC with mobian and SD with tow-boot. After this operation, phone does not react on power button at all - not even blinking.  Not sure if this is right after your question, but i assume, there should be at least some reaction - even if system couldnt boot, there should be some sign of live from tow-boot residing on SD card - am I right ?

 i think you can't install tow-boot to sd. the image is for flashing to emmc

 i don't know what happens if you flash mobian to sd (i'll try it)

 when you boot the tow-boot image it tells you to flash to emmc

 and maybe the mobian image is withuot boot loader because pinephone boots from sd first
