Bootmenu not letting me select MMC
 

For some reason, now my n810 won't let me select boot from the MMC. The menu just won't show when I press the key.

The only thing I did was boot to flash, then copied some files over to the MMC card. I shouldn't have done that, should I?

what key do you press? do you try press menu key?

As root run

chroot /mnt/initfs cal-tool --set-root-device ask:mmc2
or
chroot /mnt/initfs cal-tool --set-root-device ask:flash

Or whatever partition you want.

This sounds like the exact thing I saw when I first installed ... and pb's guidance above was right on the money.

On my 770 I had to use

chroot /mnt/initfs cal-tool --set-root-device ask:mmc12

Yes it depends on what partition you need to use, like this

chroot /mnt/initfs cal-tool --set-root-device ask:mmc2


mmc2 is partition 2 on internal
mmc3 is partition 3 on internal

mmc12 is partition 2 on external
mmc13 is partition 3 on external

You also set the default to flash

chroot /mnt/initfs cal-tool --set-root-device ask:flash
