I'm sorry but I'm a little confused with the different images and flashing options.

So far, I have taken the Manjaro ARM RC 4 image (the normal, not eMMC one) and used balenaEtcher to write that image onto an microSD card.
The machine boots just fine and it all works.

Now, if I want to actually install Manjaro ARM permanently onto the PinebookPro, that is into the eMMC. What exact image do I need to put exactly where?
I thought the answer would be trivial but reading this thread gave me some doubts Confused
And besides, what happened to good old: "plug a USB stick with the OS image in, start the machine, click install, follow instructions..."? Smile
