The | The PinePhone always boots from the microSD card first. It is therefore recommended to have a microSD card handy. It is **not** possible to lock themself out of the phone when the installation on the internal storage (the eMMC) fails, as a correctly flashed microSD card will always boot. | ||
The phone will also try to boot from microSD cards, which were previously flashed with an OS and formatted later, causing the phone to fail to boot. See [[#Reuse SD card for data storage_on system booting from eMMC]] on how to format the microSD card properly, including wiping the residues of u-boot. | |||
Note: Booting from USB is not supported by the hardware, a live USB stick will not boot. | |||
