Sorry, it's late, I tested the latest script and everything looks like it's working fine

1 2 3

FYI. When Android is preinstalled on eMMC

image

it fails with "partition too small".

Running script again, succeeded. eMMC shows correctly.

Also eMMC boot / NVME install. It does eMMC install correctly ... but not nvme. If i start armbian-install again (when running from eMMC) and choose nvme install, this time it moves to nvme. (tested on Nanopi R6C)

... but not nvme.

Please provide details.
The point of choice? downloading from a SD card?

Yes, boot from SD card on device that has eMMC and NVME present.

Yes, boot from SD card on device that has eMMC and NVME present.

And try to install the boot from eMMC and the root partition on NVME (3)
or (1) boot from SD, root on NVME.

Okay, I get it.
I have all the devices for this.
This will require a thorough logic check and will take time. Let me do it after sunxi-edge.
Let's merge it, because it fixes a bug that I mistakenly assumed that the SD card always has
the number 0 in the device name.

@liwei19920307 Thanks for the very detailed feedback.
