I think so, too.
It is a matter of perfection of "u-boot" itself.
It has the disadvantage of failing to detect "usb-device" or taking time to detect.
Booting from "MicroSD" and mounting "usb-device" on the "root-system" is more stable and faster.
For Ayufan's Bionic, write "bionic-minimal-xxx.img" images to "MicroSD".
Then, edit the following file and change it to mount "usb-device" on the "root-system".
/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf
The above file is a general text file, so I think it can be understood if you look inside.
It is different from "Raspberry Pi".
Therefore, the following items have no meaning.
