It just take on boot pin to mess up the boot process. If it is not powered on it still presents a load. It still affects the boot pins.
Key point…DO NOT PUT ANYTHNING on GPIO pins that share the boot function on power up.

Also, my external device that is connected to the GPIO listed above is not powered up at boot. Am I missing another key point in the reference you pointed me to?

I am booting from eMMC. Any idea why this is occurring? I am using the attached custom overlay which is essentially the univ-emmc overlay with some modifications on GPIOs not listed above.
