Updated stock Manjaro, now won't boot (brick?)
#11
There was an issue with a u-boot update on manjaro arm sometime back in October. This is what I had to do to fix it:

just in case this may help some other newb like yours truly:
To fix the uboot 2021.10 issue, you have to disable the eMMC on the board switch, then insert an SD card with a recent manjaro arm image on it, power up the pinebook pro, and while the u-boot countdown is rolling you flip the eMMC switch back, so it boots from your existing installation.
Then reinstall the uboot-pinebookpro package from pamac (doing so will downgrade it to 2021.07, as of present date) and run the dd commands listed on pamac’s update log.

Hopefully it might help.
