Boot from USB on PinePhone
#1
Has this been done?

Someone else mentioned the ANX7688.  If that's the USB chip then this page: https://www.analogix.com/en/products/con...es/anx7688  says it's "Simultaneous USB 3.1 Gen1 (5.0Gbps) and DisplayPort Alternate Mode".

I'm after what they did with the PI ( https://hackaday.com/2020/05/25/boot-your-pi-over-usb/ ) to put the boot loader on emmc, use the rest of the emmc for data, and have a 5Gbs USB 3.1 to SD reader with a really fast SD card and multiboot all of the possible OS's from one SD card which also holds a nice swap file that again is much faster than the built in SD.

Opinions?
