v2,1 Install problems.
I download the image and and used Etcher to write to SD. My first problem is when it verifies at thr rnd I get an error. on the check. Tried 3 different SD cards but al the same . And in two cases It screwed 2 SD cards now the y are seen as 7.63GB, Even with diskpart or disk genius there is no why to fix them. So I tried RUFUS and it wrote the images without errors. Ant way when I try to install the hotspot does not show up. Is it Rufus and why does Etcher not work? I ordered new SD cards to try. Any suggestions? thanks

And in two cases It screwed 2 SD cards now the y are seen as 7.63GB,What SD cards were those and where did you get them? Try balena etcher 1.18, some people have reported problems with 1.19, but it doesn't make your cards smaller 😅
The Sd cards are Kingston,. As for the fact I do not see the Hotspot?
failed verification = failed image.
Where did you get them?
It sounds like you got yourself fake sd cards.
Thats why I took them back. Rufus wrote the image and gave no errors. Is it not a valid app for this?
Windows has a screenshot app, i can't see anything on these.
RUFUS may work, but it's also very easy to screw up
Those are unreadable. Are you able to take a proper screenshot and post the images from the computer? (Win+Shift+S)
Those are from the phone and reduced must send the full size. A part that , I wrote the 2.0.2 by mistake and that one I did see the hotspot. Well must wait till I get the new cards and see.
Maybe you downloaded the wrong image

If you like the project and want to see it con...
trying now another SD card i found lets see.
there are 2 different images..
The CB1 one does not work on raspberry pi's and the rpi32 one does not work on CB1's.
opps my bad, but here is the error i get writing the sd card.
I can't find the v1.18 , still looking for it I'll try that if i find it
maybe change pc. 🤨
this is the img 2024-05-28-RatOS-2.1.0-RC1-armbian-CB1.img.xz
found the 1.18 trying it now
Are you using a BTT CB1?
this is just an image of the partition sizes, those are expanded on first boot, doesn't have anything to do with the sd card itself.
Yes I have the Manta M8P with the CB1
Aight, the hotspot is known to be flakey on the CB1, @blacksmithforlife there's a file you can edit to manually set wifi credentials, right?
Yes I believe I saw that somewhere in a youtube tutorial on installing the RatOS
Remember you can't compare raspberry pi to cb1 (they're different OS's) and those tutorials are most likely quite outdated.
yeah, one sec let me find it again
/boot/system.cfg
change this part
thanks will do that tommorow when i get the new sd cards
I want to get it ready for when i get my beacon 3d, which for now is lost in the mail. Tried in the Rat Rig store but they don't have it yet .Have to wait now 40 days before they send a new one. Hoping it gets here.
I just went through this too. I used two cards after balena etcher 1.19 gave me errors. After my 32g card kept reading 700mb no matter how many times I reformated the card. I put the big image of 2.1 back on the card which was obviously larger than 700mb. I then downloaded the older balena etcher 1.18 and it saw my cards as 32g. I flashed it and all is well now
I tried Etcher on another pc and did a fresh download. and the same error. Rufus works fine wrote the boot USB. Still no HotSpot showing. My questione is to install it Can I put the SD card in the mcu slot snd just turn on or do I have to disconnect the power supply and use the jumper on the USB to power and install? I tried to new cards one is a Sandisk Extreme pro 64gb but made no difference. My luck has it that mt Beacon arrived today. 😉 but now I can't use it. 😦
the hotspot only shows if it can't connect to the wifi - if you edited the /boot/system.cfg file then it would be expected to not have the ratos hotspot
I had the same issue writing a compressed image with balena etcher to sd-card on my Mac - I solved the issue by extracting the image first and was able to write the extracted image without any issue.
I tired both with the system .cfg modified and not modified. I write the image to the sd card and put it into the Manta when I turn on the printer its starts like always. no hotspot even when I have not modified the cfg. Is it normal that the printer starts as always?
did you put it in the right slot? there are 2 SD card slots, one for the CB1, the other for the mainboard CPU
I put in the one thats says MCU where the video connectors are. the other it labled SOC.
should be the one with the circle, not the one with the X
from the back
so yeah - you are putting it into the wrong SD card slot
ok my very bad I followed something I saw. going to go down stairs and the that. What an $%& i am .
SOC = System On a Chip
in this case the CB1 but could also be a raspberry compute module (CM4)

Proceed to the next step or
Flash Again
should i flash again or proceed?Flash again
I had did that before I got that error (flash again) and no errors.
Will try again this evening.
Ok did not work with auto mode but flashing via DFU on the motherborad and toolboard worked. Now I have to put in all my settings but at least its connected even if not configured.
