While I am not familiar with a lot of distro's, the ones I have installed have been between 600mb and 2.4 gb or 2.6gb
Of course that is the original install operating systems, and you can add a lot of software after the installation,
but it would seem that an 8gb should be more than large enough...
If you just do a quick glance around it does appear that the first bootable device is the sd card,
BUT .. That is a boot sequence that is loaded into the eMMC...
Actually the hard coded boot order starts with SPI, then eMMC, see the Wiki for more details.
.... So if the eMMC is corrupted this will not happen, these arm/cpu computers are not bios controlled like a AMD/Intel computer.
