I usually do this on a side of a table so I can keep the display part open, avoiding possible damages to the hinge that may occur opening the display.

Refer to the pinebook wiki to find the EMMC toggle

If the eMMC module is enabled after boot from an SD card (i.e you are too slow switching the emmc toggle), you can enable the EMMC with the following commands as user "root";
Code:
echo fe330000.sdhci >/sys/bus/platform/drivers/sdhci-arasan/unbind
echo fe330000.sdhci >/sys/bus/platform/drivers/sdhci-arasan/bind

When I turned off the EMMC toggle the PBP wouldn't even power on. I'm having issues getting it to boot from the sdcard too. 
Any luck? I'm having similar issues. Disabling emmc won't allow me to power on the device. Reset doesn't seem to do anything either.
