Broken Boot
#11
Something you could try, with balena
Write the image to an USB stick (make sure stick has nothing on it that you care about)
Check stick with fdisk, 1st part should be 32768 or 62500 sectors in
Stick should be generally readable
OR
xzcat xz_image |dd of=/dev/mmcblkX bs=1M status=progress
----
My experience with armbian is 50-50 viz bootability
try original mrfixit, quite reliable
---
and, BTW, every time you put a non-bootable sd in (and try to boot)
it may need the 8s,,20s dance (with a new card in obviously, 'bad' card OUT)
With no media, you will get nothing, ever, will think device dead
