Over time it will likely be possible to multi-boot different OSes, even on the same storage device.

There is an experimental U-Boot with 2 separate menus. One for device selection, like eMMC or SD card. The other for kernel or partition. It's not quite as easy to use as Grub. And their are limitations. Here is the thread discussing it;

I have it on one of my Pinebook Pros, seems nice. Can even be written to SPI.
