Pinebook Pro won´t boot either from eMMC or microSD

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.
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.
