 https://github.com/ebijun/NetBSD/blob/master/dmesg/aarch64/pinebook-pro

System image: dd to eMMC.
 http://www.invisible.ca/arm/

 pinebook-pro:
 1. Insert microSD, boot (Linux from eMMC comes up), 
 2. hit "Restart", 
 3. It will boot from microSD. 
 4. dd'ing to eMMC for installation, the eMMC is faster
- eMMC can disable with switch inside,and boot MicroSD.
