Gizmo_Ger Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 I was wondering if there is a solution to boot from a USB thumb drive and flash the OS to an eMMC. Currently I´m running ARMbian on a Rock64 with an eMMC module installed. Since I´m still trying to figure out how to set up the device I keep reinstalling the OS. So it would be nice to have a way without opening the case, take out the eMMC, hook it up to the PC to flash and reinserting. Thanks in advance.

NicoD Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 You can install Armbian from sd-card to eMMC with sudo armbian-config The Rock64 does not support booting from USB only I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo_Ger Posted May 26, 2019 Author Share Posted May 26, 2019 Thank you so much - I´ll give it a try. SD card is fine too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
