Pinebook picky about which EMMC will boot
#4
>- no LED of any kind unless I put the old sdcard in the sdslot
this suggests that there is no uboot on the emmc- maybe?
so... save emmc mbr,,,, copy 1st 16M from SD ->emmc,,,, restore mbr
also, that it boots sometimes from emmc suggests that the SD is slow,
that the uboot search does not find the boot config files on SD
Maybe with an emmc boot fsck the SD partitions?
(I am also assuming that GPT is not on any of this media, manjaro did not use GPT))
