I have over twenty years of experience with Debian and feel really comfortable with it on the PBP. Very happy with the whole thing because it simply works as expected for my humble purposes.
I had to take the detour of using Daniel Thompson's excellent pinebook-pro-debian-installer and once it was up and running moved over to the Debian/unstable channels and performed a dist-upgrade. Took lots of trial and error to get the initram modules right for the Debian kernels, but in the end it works fine now.
I am in the last stages of creating a bootable SD card image of a minimal Debian/unstable system for the PineBook Pro using Debian's both 5.10 and 5.14 kernels out of the box. It is mainly designed to serve as a rescue system containing lots of CLI utilities with only basic desktop capabilities. Will upload a publically accessible xz compressed image of it somewhere once complete.
If I install "this" to my eMMC, will my PBP keep the ability to boot from a sd card ?
