I think you can run the device from the external SD card. It is possible for the Aura. People have used the image from the Aura H2O to boot the Aura from the external SD card. But, I don't remember if there are any special steps to do this.

But, for the Aura H2O, booting from the external SD card should be a temporary step. If you can do it, you might be able to write the image to the internal card and boot. I don't know as I haven't tried it. But, replacing the card is probably needed. There are instructions for opening the device. The Aura H2O is harder, but, it is possible.
