Pinebook Pro won´t boot either from eMMC or microSD

If you have the eMMC disabled, the SD card will boot, if the SD card is bootable.
Download this image https://github.com/mrfixit2001/debian_de...226.img.xz and flash to an SD card. If the SD card is good, and you have flashed it correctly, it will boot.
Incidentally, I fully expect that if you're used to Kali, you will like Debian much better than Arch linux. Kali is derived from Debian. If you still want Arch linux, I recommend Manjaro, which is Arch derived, and will be much more functional than a generic Arch build. The Manjaro image for the PBP is the most functionally complete. The Debian image is in my experience, more stable, and more likely to just work. That's why I recommend Debian just to get the machine to boot.
