Cool, no way near that!

Okay, so I think I have narrowed down what just happened here!

I fdisk'd and formatted, well thought I did, the sd card.  But now I have 
come to realize depending on if a sd card is inserted at boot or not, 
changes the way mmcblk*'s are allocated. so my emmc actually got 
re-partitioned.  Yeah, I should have double checked things, but why is it 
re-arranging like this and not just standardized to the emmc always 
specifically being on a certain mmcblk?

So now, nothing will work.  I get so far with ANY distro, be it emmc 
flasher or an image made to run off of SD, bam, blinking led's.  dmesg 
reveals ifile errors.  I am stuck in a read-only rootfs and I cannot do 
anything to fix the emmc.

Hope some of this makes sense.
