* Fix Tinker Board S (eMMC) boot (#650) Use Tinker Board S U-Boot configuration which is capable to boot from eMMC as well as from SD card. Note that this makes U-Boot always claiming to run on Tinker Board S: .. Model: Rockchip RK3288 Asus Tinker Board S .. It seems that there is no generic Tinker Board configuration. However, Tinker Board S configuration really seems to work well with Tinker Board as well, so just use it. Also today the U-Boot Makefile seems to generate a working idbloader.img already. Drop our special handling. * Use Tinker Board S device tree if booting from eMMC for Linux Instead of patching the Tinker Board device tree, select the device tree based on what device we are booting from. Note: This boots the non-S device tree when booting a Tinker Board S from SD card! But there is no reliable detection otherwise, so let's just live with that fact. * Document how to use our U-Boot to flash eMMC

eMMC
eMMC support is provided with the same image. Just flash the image to the eMMC by connecting your Tinker Board S to your PC via Micro-USB. Refer to the Tinkerboard documentation how-to flash using Micro-USB and UMS.
The Home Assistant OS provided U-Boot does support UMS as well, however manual intervention is necessary:
- Set the jumper between Micro-USB and HDMI the maskrom mode
- Insert SD card and connect the board via Micro-USB to your PC
- Continusly press Ctrl+C to interrupt boot
- Set the jumper back to the park position
- Start UMS using:
ums 0 mmc 0
- A mass storage device should appear. Flash Home Assistant OS to it.
