As of right now, you could have the kernel on SD or eMMC, and the root filesystem on USB.

However, after the SPI flash bootloader is ready, it should be possible to boot completely from USB. But that's not quite ready yet.


... the question is answered correctly as asked by the OP, the way he asked it.  SPI flash does not work yet, and even when it does work,  although the SPI can load from USB,  it cannot load USB operating system thumb drives;  only the USB operating system thumb drives for our images!   But this is a mute point, since SPI flash does not work yet.

Also, having the /rootfs on USB is not the same as booting from USB, obviously.

Was referring to this when I said your wires were crossed...
