Happy eMMC and SDcard OS usage for Pinebook Pro Newbies...

[Paulie420]

Hello everyone, 

Just want to let you know that this thread helped me a lot. I had to flash my eMMC (internal storage) because I forgot the passwords! So I followed the instructions and was able to boot via sd card, however was a bit confused how to flash the eMMC. I used https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/p...c-flasher/ to flash the eMMC, but needed lot of time to figure out how to properly use it. Here the most important tips in my opinion to make that script to work properly:

1. You need to have the Manjaro ARM image compressed in xz format.
   
2. The script will look for that image in the /var/tmp directory.
    
   

I suggest you to read the script to know and get familiar with what the script is trying to do (wish I did this sooner). You can also modify the script but I prefer to adjust to what the script wants. 

I hope this is helpful to someone who doesn't much experience like me.

Thanks for helping keep this post relevant and with more details for users. The SD burning and burning to eMMC processes are fairly easy and work well - if you do them correctly the first time and don't create issues for yourself... positive feedback coming your way.
