With my 2022 PBP:
The Kali installer does disable the Sdcard boot by default when you install it to the eMMC & the color bars are normal for the display after the initial boot-up screen; it doesn’t affect operation.
The PBP will not reboot & when you try, it’ll get stuck on a gray/colors screen similar to the start up one. You always need to power it off instead. (Reinstalling will not change it.)
If you want to modify your U-boot install, here is the complete guide:
https://docs.u-boot.org/en/latest/index.html
or you can build it from source & reinstall it fresh to try another OS:
https://docs.u-boot.org/en/latest/build/source.html
I haven’t had the CRC error on my PBP & it has various causes. If you want to run Kali on your PBP please follow this guide:
