### What happened?
When I try to install the armbian system from the SDcard onto the emmc, it keeps failing and the system doesn't boot from the emmc.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the armbian-install flow on a Raxda Q6A with a 16GB eMMC, using the working SD-card installation as a comparison. Inspect the installation output and resulting eMMC boot artifacts; done means the install completes without errors and the board boots from eMMC after the SD card is removed.
