Pinebook Pro won´t boot either from eMMC or microSD
#3
Will it boot with the eMMC disabled? If not, you'll need to flash a bootable image to the SD card, with another computer. I recommend the Debian that originally came with the Pinebook Pro. It is the most reliable. Once you've done that, and the PBP will boot, then you can flash the eMMC with whatever you like.

If you have only used Linux a little, I recommend you stick with Debian or Manjaro for a while.

By the way, you can't really brick the PBP.
