eMMC Trouble After Flashing WRONG Image
#1
I booted into a microSD-borne Manjaro on my PinebookPro and used Manjaro's `manjaro-arm-flasher` to permanentize that distribution. In that process, however, I chose the wrong image `rock64` rather than `pbpro` and as a result ended up with a PinebookPro that is not even able to boot from the microSD any longer.

In a first attemtp at remediing this situation I have switched off the eMMC on the main bord - now booting from the microSD is possible. The wiki says the eMMC is hot-pluggable, so I hoped when switching it back on when the system is up and running, I could just reflash it and be fine.

BUT: when toggling the eMMC's hardware switch on the running system, the blockdevice does NOT (re)appear accessible for the `manjaro-arm-flasher` utility.
My next step is trying to have journalctl -f running while toggling the eMMC to have a better feedback of what may be going wrong ...

Can anyone help me out with this situation?
