I’m using Crochet with no other patches.


Ian Lepore’s suggestion of adding

  loaderdev=disk1

to bb-uenv.txt on the MSDOS partition fixed it for me so that it always boots from eMMC even if there is an SD card inserted.  Otherwise, it tries to boot from SD if there is an SD card and only boots from eMMC if there is no SD card inserted.
