Did some more experimenting and found that on warm boot, it’s almost as if the drive isn’t recognised. On cold boot, I have these options; the eMMC Device is missing on warm boot.
it has also a efi ?
Not sure I understand the question? “also”? It’s only EOS on this machine. nothing else can fit. 
I think what @ringo is asking is if it is actually UEFI or not? @anon11595408 has provided the info to check that and confirm.
I think what i meant efi file in /boot/efi somewhere but dont know first i thought needed a 32bit efi file but seems not the case but something to firmware mayby idk

Sorry for only now getting back to you all.
I suspect it’s a firmware issue. So I’m parking EndeavourOS until I get my hands on a better machine.
Kinda bummed, to be honest, I was really looking forward to the experience.
Ah well … I am sticking around the forums for vicarious experiences.
No problem…hang around you are welcome
