Hmm.. This is just documenting what Robert has in his scripts[1]
there a recovery procedure?
Oopsie.. Sorry you had to hit that..
I suppose I should have tries it on an SD card first. I thought that was what I was doing, but I didn't know about the internal mmc...
Recovery currently involves booting off sd and flashing the emmc up :( unfortunately.. USB DFU etc are still work in progress.
Hmm so does that mean I need an ARM machine do to the SD boot-partition magic, or can I use a USB reader on an x86 box
I just have x86box with SDcard reader - and I use Balena etcher app image to keep my head straight.
A ready to go image such as [2] emmc flasher image might help speed things up.

emmc flasher image
OK thanks. I am not sure how to use those yet, but will make a note.
Just https://etcher.balena.io/ and flash an SD card with the official image here: https://www.beagleboard.org/distros/beagleplay-debian-11-flasher

OK I tried that on an SD card, but it is still bricked.
