Hello @LxNick

Can you check this one ?

Thanks. I got it. But it not boom from sd.

I format the TF card, and flash it , flash Ubuntu image. But it still boot Android from emmc

Should I erase emmc or modify boot-strap or jump pin to boot from sd ?

If you want to boot from SD card, we suggest you to erase the Android image on eMMC.

I will try to erase emmc later, after I download the image.

BTW, I found the problem is missing /boot.ini . Is it possible to make it read from SD card, instead of emmc ?

Hit Enter or space or Ctrl+C key to stop autoboot – : 0
