I've repartitioned my eMMC to include a physical swap partition as well as a place for my Gentoo tests. That's on hold until I can figure out how to boot back and forth, without using a SD card.

What I did was dd the 1st 32Mb on the SD to a file, and then dd zeros to the card. That way it will boot from eMMC. Restore it back from the file to boot from the SD.
