How do i boot an Orange Pi 5B from the EMMC in armbian

[z28z34man]

I installed the armbian image on an SD card and it runs fine.  Now I would like to run it from the EMMC for long term reliability.

 

i tried following what Dara Ó hEidhin did in this thread but am not successful

 

  

For some reason google drive is not letting me download the driver assistant so RKdrivetool doesn't see the orange pi board like the video referenced in the thread so i cant flash it that way.

 

I tried running it from the SD card and editing the armbianEnv.txt in the /boot folder from fdtfile=rockchip/rk3588s-orangepi-5b.dts to fdtfile=rockchip/rk3588s-orangepi-5b.dts and am able to see the EMMC drive. 

then i try a sudo armbian-install option 5 to flash the boot looder and option 2 to install to the EMMC but i don't believe the boot loader part is working as i don't see a /boot partition on the EMMC

 

I am sure I am missing something simple but I don't know where to go from here.  I don't remember having these problems with armbian for my Orange pi zero plus 2 h5 that I am using for klipper on 3D printer.

Just incase someone is searching and this comes up i have it working just fine with the EMMC and i am not quite sure what i was doing wrong before.

 

i just updated the armbianEnv.txt file then sudo armbian-install option 2 then option 5.  this is with Armbian bookworm cinnamon.
