	~~Modify the~~ image to ~~use~~ eMMC ~~paths~~. ~~'''''Warning'''~~, ~~this '''no longer works''' in latest images since boot.txt was removed. Please update this section~~.''		The image, by default, points to <code>/dev/mmcblk0</code> for SD cards, which must be modified to point to <code>/dev/mmcblk2</code> for the eMMC. To start, mount the image to a loop device.

	~~The image, by default, points to <code>~~/dev/~~mmcblk0</code> for SD cards, which must be modified to point to <code>/dev/mmcblk2</code> for the eMMC~~. ~~To start, determine the starting points of the image partitions:~~		$ sudo losetup -P /dev/loop0 maemo-leste--arm64-pinephone-.img

	~~$ fdisk -u -l maemo-leste--arm64-pinephone-.img~~		Mount the second partition to /mnt and the first partition to /mnt/boot and enter /mnt:

	In the output of this command, look for the '''Start''' column and multiply these values individually with the value given by the '''Units''' section -- this gives the offsets of the partitions from the beginning of the file.		$ sudo mount /dev/loop0p2 /mnt
			$ sudo mount /dev/loop0p1 /mnt/boot
			$ cd /mnt

	~~Mount~~ the ~~first partition and enter it:~~		Use the editor of your choice to edit <code>/mnt/etc/fstab</code>, replacing <code>/dev/mmcblk0</code> with <code>/dev/mmcblk2</code>.

	$ sudo ~~mount -o loop,offset=<Partition 1 offset>~~ maemo-leste-~~-arm64-pinephone-~~.~~img~~ /~~mnt~~		Now we need to edit <code>boot.scr</code>. For that you will need to download <code>boot.txt</code> from Maemo Leste github:
	~~$ cd~~ /~~mnt~~
			$ cd /mnt/boot
			$ sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maemo-leste/pine64-uboot/master/boot.txt

			Now we do the same step as we did for the fstab, replacing <code>/dev/mmcblk0</code> with <code>/dev/mmcblk2</code> in <code>boot.txt</code>.

	~~Use the editor of your choice to edit <code>boot.txt</code>, replacing <code>/dev/mmcblk0</code> with <code>/dev/mmcblk2</code>.~~

			To regenerate <code>boot.scr</code> you need to install <code>u-boot-tools</code> first to be able to use mkimage.

	Regenerate <code>boot.scr</code>:		Regenerate <code>boot.scr</code>:
Line 164:		Line 168:
	$ sudo mkimage -A arm -O linux -T script -C none -a 0 -e 0 -d boot.txt boot.scr		$ sudo mkimage -A arm -O linux -T script -C none -a 0 -e 0 -d boot.txt boot.scr

	Leave ~~the first partition~~ and unmount it:		Leave /mnt and unmount the partitions:

	$ cd ~		$ cd ~
	$ sudo umount /mnt		$ sudo umount -R /mnt

	~~Mount~~ the ~~second partition and enter it~~:		We can now save the image we just modified using dd:

	$ sudo ~~mount -o loop,offset~~=~~<Partition 2 offset>~~ maemo-leste--arm64-pinephone-.img ~~/mnt~~		$ sudo dd if=/dev/loop0 of=maemo-leste-1.0-arm64-pinephone-EMMC.img
	~~$ cd /mnt~~

	~~Use~~ the ~~editor of your choice to edit <code>etc/fstab</code>, replacing <code>/dev/mmcblk0</code> with <code>/dev/mmcblk2</code>~~.		The image is now ready to be installed to the eMMC.

	~~Leave~~ the ~~second partition and unmount it~~:		We can now remove the loop device we created earlier:

	~~$ cd ~~~		$ sudo losetup -d /dev/loop0
	$ sudo ~~umount~~ /~~mnt~~

	~~The image is now ready to be installed to the eMMC.~~
