Well, I might be the first one to test it! All I am doing is burning Ubuntu 18.10 onto a usb drive to put it into my Chromebook so I can have a better Linux computer!
can this tool totally erase and reformat all the content of the EMMC before burning any official img provided by khadas on its firmare webpage ?
thanks!
Hello ravelo,
Seems not supported. You can use windows burning toool to erase the eMMC.
I can confirm utils works fine with Ubuntu-18.04.3-LTS as well 
to totally erase emmc, bootloader/uboot command worked ok, and windows app also; linux cli app could have some not so well documented options to also erase emmc but i did not find them yet.
Trying to burn VIM3_Ubuntu-xfce-bionic_Linux-4.9_arm64_EMMC_V20190830 got me into error on writing rootfs 
How to properly wipe EMMC and start over?
Solved - this Windows tool helped.

Hello,
I tried installing the burn tool on Ubuntu-18.04.3-LTS without success. It gives the following lines:
~/_AmIDIS/_AmBOX/arm/khadas-utilities/utils$ sudo ./INSTALL

After entering my password, all it does is to perform sudo apt-get update. and that’s all.
Please how did you successfully install it?
@uzosky Can you provide the full log info in there ? We need it to check what happend.You can try burn-tool -h to check it if it install success. About How to install , You can follow this page to install.
Here is the log:

I was actually following the instruction on how to install it on Ubuntu based on the link you provided.
Yes, I got:
~$ burn-tool -h

I’m aware that it should look like that. Unfortunately, it doesn’t display that info because it’s not installing. Have you tested on Ubuntu 18.04 with success?
@uzosky Our docs was test with Ubuntu18.04 and myself host is Ubuntu18.04 too. THis is first time I met Ubuntu 18.04 that failed to install. Can you use root user to try again ? I think maybe the question which related to authority.
