Additional Information (if applicable)

The system booted from the SD card successfully and the eMMC was detected so I followed the instructions in https://dietpi.com/blog/?p=1236. At the end of Step 3:

  1. Shutdown the system
  2. Remove the SD card (Important!)
  3. Reboot the system

The system does not boot. Replacing the SD card and the system does not boot. Physically removing the eMMC is required to get the system to boot.

Steps to reproduce

(See above)

Expected behaviour

I expected the system to boot from the eMMC

Actual behavior

The system does not boot.

Extra details

It appears that the eMMC is attempting to boot but fails with a Kernel Panic. Since the system originally booted from the SD card when the eMMC was present but had no data, the data now on the eMMC is not correct but I don’t know how to start over.
