    Hacking Booting to hekate without eMMC?

    In theory it should. But if everything works as intended and working new emmc is soldered perfectly, just not yet written, in other words blank, picofly or hwfly can and will boot to hekate for easier flashing.

    Hacking Booting to hekate without eMMC?

    Hacking Booting to hekate without eMMC?

    I realy doubt that emmc is defective. Maybe this blank emmc have 8 mb boot partitions and picofly doesnt like that. Or maybe there is no boot partitions at all, but i dont think thats possible.

    Hacking Booting to hekate without eMMC?

    Readings are within normal range, Emmc is Samsung KLMCG4JETD 64gb. Tried to reflash pico with 2.73FW, also tried completly new rp2040 zero with picofly 2.74FW. Both ways still gives *=* error two times. PC recognizes switch in rcm mode, indicating that emmc works, but there is missing valid...

    Is this possible only on V2, or also on oled. Asking because after changing sk hynix emmc to a samsung blank one, picofly gives *=* error without further succes.
