I flashed the new image and the board started to work correctly, both mass 
device and Ethernet over USB. However, after disabling HDMI and eMMc as you 
suggested, none of these two shows up, as if the board weren't connected at 
all.

Is it that "disable eMMC" disables eMMC completely, so that not it does not 
work as a boot partition? Should I thus always boot from the card if I want 
to use the cape? Yes, the card keeps reflashing eMMC. rootfs mounts 
readonly to PC sot
that I can not disable the reflashing. What should I do?
