I get the installation started and the message "Installation Failed" pops up when it tries to format/mount the storage. There's a close button and that's it. No other information is given. Anyone know what could be going on here?

Well, I've given up on Mobian.

Not yet....

I was using the installer from an SD card but now I'm trying Tow-Boot.

Tried flashing the installer to eMMC using Tow-Boot and it worked (I was able to install Mobian) but then it boot looped because of (I assume) FDE, so I just flashed a Mobian image to eMMC and everything is fine. Hopefully they'll get FDE working soon.
