        @HiramXMaxim The EMMC small board has an adapter for converting to TF card, which can be written to the EMMC using a common card reader. As shown in the figure below.

              @retroman Try formatting the TF card before mirroring it. If it does not work properly, it is recommended to upgrade the loader file.

                  @george OK. Updating loader file works. But no wifi and bluetooth in this build?

                            I purchased the reader and when I insert it into any of my computers Windows 11, Debian 11 none of them recognize the emmc module. Etcher, et al, do not show any available flash devices. Am I missing some device drivers or should it just work? I have 3 CoolPi's and I've tried all the adapters and emmc modules.

                              @HiramXMaxim This may be the compatibility problem of the card reader. You can first make the image into the TF card, and then use the migration script of armbian to migrate the image to EMMC.

                                    Does this version have Vulkan support? I tried to run a program with Vulkan and it doesn't work.

                                      @retroman said in Coolpi 4B armbian support:

                                      Vulkan

                                      Sorry, Vulkan is not supported for the time being. Please pay attention to the following updates.
