PBP does not boot: broken boot partition
08-06-2020, 09:34 AM
I was messing with my boot partition on my PBP KDE Edition. Now, it doesnt boot to the OS.
During power-on, the light is orange and the system hangs there. Screen remains black. Power indicator remains orange.
I have not made any changes to uboot or other system properties.
I created a bootable SD card, but it still does not boot; same issue as above (light orange, screen black).
The Wiki mentions that the KDE edition has "uboot on the eMMC. Its boot order is: SD, USB, then eMMC."
Does this mean that I can not boot from SD or USB while my boot partition on eMMC is broken?
Any recommendations how to proceed?
My only thought is to buy a USB to eMMC adapter and restore my backup onto the boot partition. Let me know if there is another way.
