Pinebook Pro won't post after hard reset

At least, that is another option
Once you have a bootable pbp, you can again try writing SPI, from os, not rkdeveloptool
--edit--
Sometimes, for flash, it is good practice to write zeros first, then write image
No left-over, not overwritten junk
Especially if new image is smaller

I was curious if I should zero it? Again, I'm not 100% certain what all this is doing but all I was hoping for was proof that I hadn't screwed the motherboard in anyway. Again, more developments, out of nowhere it managed to boot from the SD card. Still had some issues with the image I burned to it where it wouldn't get past the loading screen for Manjaro so I've tried postmarketOS and have managed to actually boot into it. Not sure what changed from yesterday to today? I'm going to try another image and if successful I'll push the image to the eMMC to see if it will boot from there instead of the SD. Progress is progress.

Thanks,
