I have a Lenovo IP 5 16IAU7 16" 2.5K Chromebook i3-1215U 8GB Ram 128GB eMMC. I flashed the UEFI ROM, and it no longer recognizes the onboard eMMC. I’ve been running fedora off a USB stick, which is fine for my needs, but would love to have the internal eMMC back.
I checked, i’m on the latest UEFI ROM.
Is this a known issue, or is being worked?
Regardless, thanks to the community! nice to have linux running on the box!
Taniks has both eMMC and NVMe enabled in coreboot, please provide a cbmem log so I can verify the eMMC is detected and enabled there. I’m wondering if there is a conflict between the eMMC and UFS drivers in edk2
Many thx for the reply! I’ll get these uploaded this weekend.
Sincerely,
Blackstone
Here is the cbmem log. hopefully the link works. thx again.
no access to the file
…
Sorry. Should work now.
coreboot appears to be initializing the eMMC PCI bridge properly.
does the eMMC appear once the OS is booted?
running fedora.
lsblk only shows the usb stick (sda), which i’m booting from, and zram (mounted swap).
Figured I try and revive this thread and see if anyone else is having this problem?
I had that problem and also:
On nvme it would randomly freeze and it seemed storage related because nothing ever appeared in logs, was intermittent and did it whether on battery or plugged in. Also on fedora.
Upon restoring factory firmware I never got past a black screen.
Thought my device was defective but now sounds like some problems unique to the taniks model.
Thx for the reply. If something ever changes I’ll post back here.
Looks like there’s some hope for us sticking with emmc. If you get impatient swapping the emmc in for a supported nvme drive might get you into a proper Linux or windows faster… But there’s a chance this might be fixed.
@blackstone if you make your log viewable by all, more people will be able to help you.
