I recommend the Debian that originally came with the Pinebook Pro. It is the most reliable. Once you've done that, and the PBP will boot, then you can flash the eMMC with whatever you like.If I disable the eMMC I can't boot it. I try turning it on with the eMMC disabled but nothing happens, the led doesn't even turn on.
If you have only used Linux a little, I recommend you stick with Debian or Manjaro for a while.
By the way, you can't really brick the PBP.
