The openSUSE info for the Beagle Board Black (https://en.opensuse.org/HCL:BeagleBone_Black) says:
To boot from µSD card, you must press boot select switch button (near µSD slot) on power-on. Otherwise, you will boot from internal eMMC.
Is this still the case? I am guessing that this is a board-related thing. Is there no way to get the board to boot from the µSD card automatically?
In order to boot from uSD automatically, you have to ensure that there is no bootloader at eMMC memory. This can be done using zeroing begin of eMMC. Pressing the button just changes default probing order.
I do not have a card yet. I want to explore the ARM PRU (programmable real-time unit). But booting from the µSD will be a requirement if we chose to use this card.
In theory you also can deploy openSUSE image onto eMMC memory if you manage to boot Linux from somewhere. But as far as I know nobody tried this yet. It would be great if you could manage to bring PRU up. There are still some missing parts.
