SBC with iMX8M mini, 2GB LPDDR4, 16GB MIcron eMMC(MTFC16GAKAEJP-4M). Boot mode set to internal boot, CFG for eMMC boot, the same as on NXP EVK (Wifi on SD1, SD card on SD2, eMMC on SD3 ) Some boards work ok, some occasionally(10-20%) refuse to boot from eMMC, although this is already programmed and working before.
Norml boot - from eMMC

eMMC must not be detected, because console is empty, if it fails. If SD card inserted, due to error occurring during the internal boot, the boot code jumps to the Serial DownloaderBefore going into USB serial mode, Boot ROM detect SD/MMC card on USDHC2 port. If a card is inserted, ROM will try to boot from it. This is the so-called Manufacture SD/MMC boot.
Console in case, eMMC is not detected

Is there any explanation for such a behaviour? PCB layout must be good, once board boots from eMMC, it never ever fails anymore, all stress tests always pass.
