RAM: 512 MB DDR3
Storage: internal 16 GB eMMC + external microSD
Bluetooth module: u-blox ANNA-B112 BLE
USB-C ports: DRP (Dual Role Power) receptacle + UFP (Upstream Facing Port) plug, USB 2.0 only (no video support)
LEDs: two
Slide switch: for boot mode selection between eMMC and microSD
External security elements: Microchip ATECC608A + NXP A71CH

boot select switch

Switch near sdcard select booting from emmc or microsd (silkscreen is somewhat poor, but by default bafore removing sticker it will boot from sdcard)

If it's closer to sdcard, it will boot from sdcard

image delivered on device

Password for image delivered with device is not usbarmory (?)

In fact, it doesn't have usbarmory user in /etc/passwd, but has it in /etc/shadow, go figure!

After adding usbarmory account, running apt upgrade (since image has old kernel) device isn't bootable any more (at least it's not detected by host in which it's plugged in).

Let's try to rebuild image for emmc and flash it.

Well, re-build fails with patches allready applied errors in linux source, so let's wipe it:

root@813046ba7c77:/opt/armory# rm -Rf linux-* u-boot-2019.07*

root@813046ba7c77:/opt/armory# make all V=mark-two IMX=imx6ull BOOT=eMMC -j 8

pads on board

documentation again claims that schematics is available, but it isn't for mk2

https://github.com/inversepath/usbarmory/tree/master/hardware

from changelog thouse pads might be jtag (since it's enabled in u-boot), but without schematics who knows...

It seems that 8 gpio pins are available using additional board: https://github.com/inversepath/usbarmory/tree/master/hardware/mark-two-debug-accessory

sdcard vs emmc speed

root@usbarmory:/mnt/klin/home/dpavlin/usb-armory/usbarmory-debian-base_image# hdparm -Tt /dev/mmcblk[01]

/dev/mmcblk0: # -- sdcard
 Timing cached reads:   664 MB in  2.00 seconds = 331.99 MB/sec
 Timing buffered disk reads:  34 MB in  3.03 seconds =  11.21 MB/sec

/dev/mmcblk1: # -- emmc
