So,
I have bought some samsung and kingston premium 8gb sdhc cards.
I have downloaded the images and followed official documentation.
I have not used eewiki documentation because I do not understand it.
The boot from external sd does not work at all for me.
I would like now to understand at least on which device can I read the sd 
card.
I see a /dev/mmcblk0 but it seems it is mapped to internal emmc memory.
Am I wrong?
Thanks again,
Mario
