i bought a la frite and a 16 gb emmc modual.

i have installed the modual. pretty sure its working properly.

i cannot, for the life of me, get it to show up as a virtual device when i connect it to my pc, per the instructions provided on this site.

also, what im confused about is the emmc/nor switch on the side, ive had it in both possible possitions and it doesnt change anything. and i cant find a single thing about it online.

In the u-boot console, you can type ums 0 mmc 0 to expose the eMMC as a storage device on the USB Type-A next to the IR receiver.

anyone else reading this, u may do this and no drive will show up but often it is connected and u need to use gparted on linux or disk management on windows to partition the drive
