Pinebook Pro not Booting at All eMMC or MicroSD

[tophneal]

Hello,

I removed the eMMC attempting to do the u-boot installation.  However, it looks like nothing happened when I tried to do it because it didn't engage the microSD card at boot I guess.  However, I put the eMMC back on and it won't boot the regular Debian OS now at all?

Also, I can't get microSD to work as an alternative, although I have never once successfully used the microSD boot at this point.

Why won't it load?  Why does the power button blink green once, and then hold a orangish red color indefinitely?

Thanks, AstroCEO.

Can you give more details concerning how you were trying to install u-boot? Do you mean write it to the SPI? Or were you trying to write to your eMMC using the USB adapter?

Every PBP OS img so far has included a version of u-boot with it (otherwise they won't boot.) If your eMMC u-boot is faulty and enabled, you won't be able to boot to SD until you disable or remove the eMMC. After doing that, if your SD doesn't boot, you should look at the SD itsself, or verify you're writing the img to the SD correctly.
