Manjaro ARM 20.04
#45
I figured out an admittedly ugly workaround to the problem of not being able to boot from an SD image once the EMMC was running Manjaro 2.04.  I was able to get the system to boot from a Manjaro 2.02  SD card image.  From there I knew I could install gparted and blow away the partitions on the EMMC drive.  After doing this I still had intermittent problems getting SD images to boot, but I was finally able to boot to the emmc installer image for the version of Manjaro that I wanted (XFCE 2.04, moving from KDE 2.04).  This is, however, a less elegant solution than the one spikerguy pointed to above.  If anything had gone wrong I was ready to crack open the case and pull the emmc chip and flash it using my pine64 emmc to usb adapter.  Without that fallback I'm not sure I would have taken the risk.

So I'm sorted now, aside from so far not being able to get cups running to where I can pull it up from a browser.  Overall I am really enjoying Manjaro with XFCE, and it is obvious how much work the Manjaro team has put into the ARM version of both desktop choices.
