Did you wipe the built-in EMMC to remove any previously installed bootloader? https://github.com/citruz/haos-rockpi#installation

You know, I didn't. I assumed that because the device ran LibreELEC fine, it didn't have anything in the EMMC. Took a while to get a working image for something that I could SSH into but I finally cleared it and your image works great!

No worries. Unfortunately the boatloaders of different images (even if they all use uboot) are not necessarily compatible because it depends on the options that they have been compiled with. I think there is an alternative way of skipping emmc by grounding a specific pin but it’s not super well documented and i keep forgetting which pin it is. Would probably be a good idea to add that to the readme as it’s a faster workaround than getting another image booted up.
