I've been trying to get the Venus OS loaded onto a Raspberry Pi 3 B+, but am just getting frustrated. No attempt to write the img to the card will cause it to boot. I'm using Mac OS for my primary computer (to load the image). I've tried:
- Loading venus-image-raspberrypi2-20200906135923-v2.60.rootfs.rpi-sdimg.zip
- Using Raspberry Pi Imager
- direct from zip
- unzipped
- Using balanaEtcher
- unzipped and renamed extension to .img
- Using command line dd
- Using Raspberry Pi Imager
- The same above but with 20200301205316-v2.51
- EEPROM boot recovery and erasing the SD card before loading
- Using two different SanDisk Ultra SD cards (8 and 32Gb)
- Two different Macbook Pro's
In every case, I only get the rainbow screen at startup. As a sanity check, I used the Raspberry Pi Imager to load the latest RBP OS to the card, and it booted the first time, so I'm fairly confident my loading process, cards, and RBP board are fine.
What else can I try?
