soft brick with ayufan

Tried on the SD card before yanking the mmc. This on my host computer:
I had the same problem, hung at the manjaro splash screen.
So I pulled the emmc and plugged it into my USB stick. And the partition table does NOT look like ayufan buster:
That looks like the Manjaro partition scheme.
So WTF was I dd'ing to when I first tried to flash the emmc with ayufan?!? Was it all just cached because I never ran `sync` ? That seems really unlikely... But I checked the source device ID for the root partition, and dd'ed to the other device.
Is it possible that I booted off of some bizarre mix of mounts? How does uboot decide which partition becomes / ?
Code:
# start with a manjaro image. (which works for uboot but hangs on splash)
sudo dd if=Manjaro-ARM-kde-plasma-pbpro-20.12.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=512 status=progress
# copy the root partition from ayufan buster-containers.
