This release https://github.com/mrfixit2001/debian_de...tag/191226 is the one you mean? I don't understand what you mean by his update? Flip the switch while booted into that debian sd? what do you mean by rebind? I do have another linux machine. I'm not sure how to check that extlinux root= and fstab is right. I know that's a lot of questions if you send pertinent documentation I can read that instead.
Manjaro mounts by label, a fruitful source of (kernel) confusion, if there are 2 partitions with same label ...
and,, manjaro does not seem to have best uboot, do realize that uboot on emmc will be one used
I strongly suggest mrfixit's debian, do his update (NOT apt update) as a recovery SD
Use it with disabled emmc, then flip switch and rebind
If you have a linux box, check that extlinux root= is right, also fstab
If you want to use manjaro as a recovery SD, change label and extlinux and fstab
okay so after sitting with the barrel charger plugged in for over 36 hours I tried again with my usb c power bank (18 w pd quick charging) plugged that in and it booted! says battery is at 1% (up from 0%) and charging now. Could my barrel charger be defective? or my battery be dead/dying? I did notice that the red charging light blinks with the barrel charger. is that normal? I'm going to leave it on the usb c charger for a while. is there any wiki documentation of these battery issues? I'll submit a PR to update the documentation if there isn't. should this be in the troubleshooting doc? https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/Pinebook_Pr...ble_switch
