Changing Boot Order on the PineBook Pro
#1
Hello, I searched for an answer but I'm not finding anything.  Apologies if this has been asked and answered already.

My Pinebook Pro boot order was behaving as expected for quite some time.  It was booting from the SD card when a bootable card was inserted, and then from the eMMC otherwise.

After flashing Ayufan's Chromium OS build to the eMMC, now for some reason the PBP always boots from the eMMC card unless I disable the hardware switch for it.  This effectively makes the eMMC worthless since it can't be re-enabled without rebooting, but then the boot happens from the eMMC (which is currently in a totally broken state and needs to be re-installed).  I've now got a real chicken and egg problem going here.

I had read that the boot order was fixed (possibly hardcoded) but given my experience here, I'm wondering how true that actually is.

Is there any way to change the boot order?  How can I restore it to factory settings?
