Another Newb Unable to Boot From microSD
Are none of your users in sudo group?,,, sudo su ; passwd ,, or if all fails, edit /etc/shadow
but to do this you have to be root from a SD boot if you don't have sudo...... (id shows what groups and id you have)
Some of the manjaro uboots are a bit flaky, it is hit and miss,, some have no problems,
others have put a bsp uboot on (vrs mainline),, essential for s3 sleep (uboot-pinebookpro-bsp)
Bootrom, searches installed media at 64 sectors, its search order is SPI(at 0), emmc, SD (and usb for writing)
bootrom is searching for idbloader, then uboot gets loaded, its search order(varies) is SD, nvme, usb, emmc, network
strings uboot |grep _target,,,, uboot is looking for boot.scr/extlinux.conf, strings shows where
1st uboot found is one used, 1st boot.scr/extlinux found is also the one used, all others ignored
systemsettings5 ->power management ->button handling checked ->lid switch ignore, pwr button ask
With mainline uboot, s2idle is barely better than screen blanking, you want suspend 3 (dmesg), bsp uboot
This is not at all clear

And BTW, updates usually want your user password, yes for pacman you have to be root
Oh yes, for good SD speed is has to be ALL usb3,, and large blocks, 4k and 16k are usually pathetic,
even then an image write usually ends up at ~40 MB/s
