Hi there,
I’m at the point where I need a hardware workaround if I’m going to get any use out of what’s becoming a frustrating pile of La Frite (AML-S805X-AC) boards.
I’m looking for a known-compatible eMMC module to USB-A adapter/reader that will let me access Libre eMMC modules directly from another system so I can fully erase and reflash them.
I’ve seen multiple references stating that HardKernel (and other) eMMC modules are not compatible with Libre boards, but that doesn’t clearly answer the part I actually need to know:
-
Will Libre eMMC modules work with Hardkernel readers?
-
If not, what reader/adapter does work?
I’ve already bricked one board, and I’m not interested in continuing to fight the on-board flashing methods or toolchains. I’m looking for a dead-simple, reliable hardware solution that lets me write images directly to the module, using a PC, recover it if something goes wrong.
If anyone has a confirmed working adapter or reader for Libre/La Frite eMMC modules, I’d really appreciate a specific recommendation.
Thanks in advance.
