I also tried to boot with the orangepi kernel, but the result was the same, eMMC card not detected.

Sorry for late reply. Does this issue still exist?

[artifex69]

Thank you for the reply.

Yes, this issue still is there but I figured out what is the problem and it's the u-boot.
Booting the orange pi with dietpi default uboot (vendor) leads to eMMC card detection failure.
Switching to u-boot-orangepi5-plus-legacy and installing it solves the problem.
So, in order to solve the issue it is necessary to do:
apt install u-boot-orangepi5-plus-legacy
cd /usr/lib/linux-u-boot-legacy-orangepi5-plus
dd if=idbloader.img of=/dev/mmcblk1 seek=64 conv=notrunc
588+0 records in
588+0 records out
301056 bytes (301 kB, 294 KiB) copied, 0.00487433 s, 61.8 MB/s

dd if=u-boot.itb of=/dev/mmcblk1 seek=16384 conv=notrunc
2740+0 records in
2740+0 records out
1402880 bytes (1.4 MB, 1.3 MiB) copied, 0.0183882 s, 76.3 MB/s

Attached both boot logs, maybe there is some voltage failure there
vendor:
DM: v2
mmc@fe2c0000: 1, mmc@fe2e0000: 0
Card did not respond to voltage select!

Thanks for the info. Hmm good to know and bad. Actually I thought that both U-Boot packages use the same source. But the versions are different, if course. I'll test our as well, and see whether I can identify the related change in the source code.
