Install to EMMC

[mschirrmeister]

There is no way yet to install it from sdcard to EMMC? The wiki mentions a --disk option, but if I specify this I get an error.

Currently I flash directly to EMMC, which works fine. But was just wondering if there is or will be an option in acu for example to install to EMMC or NVME.

Working steps on macOS.

Install `rkdevtools`

    git clone https://github.com/radxa/rkdeveloptool.git
    cd rkdeveloptool
    autoreconf -i
    ./configure
    make

Boot device in `maskrom` mode, download the loader to the device and flash the image.

    curl -LO https://dl.radxa.com/rock5/sw/images/loader/rk3588_spl_loader_v1.15.113.bin

    sudo ./rkdeveloptool ld
    sudo ./rkdeveloptool db rk3588_spl_loader_v1.15.113.bin
    sudo ./rkdeveloptool wl 0 ~/Downloads/radxa-rock-5b-archlinux-installer.img
    sudo ./rkdeveloptool rd

You can run this script to download and flash the installer from sd card to emmc.

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kwankiu/archlinux-installer/dev/scripts/get-installer | install_disk=/dev/mmcblk0 sh

Note: Replace /dev/mmcblk0 to the corresponding device you want to install on.

Tips:

• This script automatically detects your device model but optionally, you can set install_target=radxa-rock-5b
• This script will get the installer from the latest tag, if you want a different version, you can set like release_tag=b08-dev

Great, thank you. Tested it with a sd card. Will give EMMC a try on next rebuild.
