No UEFI, no magic keystokes, not x86, sorry
The only magic keystroke, to get vt (tty, virtual terminal),, control-alt(hold both)-F2 (or F3,F4,F5,F6)
I see that you know trick to check password (type it 1st),
maybe try switching input methods (languages), this varies, shift space or control space or caps lock
There are probably more, maybe it would be easier to re-install
If you have problems with SD boot, try another distro, SD boot should have priority
What may be happening is that emmc rootfs and SD rootfs have same label,
so it is booting from SD /boot and mounting emmc rootfs (with bad language choice)
If you have a linux box, you could change SD (maybe e2label /dev/sdb2)
and fstab and extlinux.conf
