I'm writing install scripts for the Ubuntu images to make the process less error-prone and it'd be hugely helpful if we could get as many of the PBP U-Boot boot orders aligned so that they do roughly what most users expect when they pop an SD card in to boot.

Thanks for working on this, apologies for immediately piling on and asking for more.

Right now, it's set to boot from NVMe first, then SD, then eMMC.
I suppose prioritizing SD makes sense. I'll change that as soon as I have the time.

Thanks! That'll help keep users out of trouble when they manage to mangle something and need to rescue the system from an sd card.
