RPI not booting with SARPI installer
by Desiderius from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5952A)
Hi
On Slackware current I have just downloaded the installer from SARPI :
sarpi4-installer_slackcurrent_08Oct20_sp1.img.xz
put in in a FAT32 partition ( the first partition of my SD card ; the other partitions are formatted under f2fs for /home and a partition forv swap ) by making
xz -dc sarpi4-installer_slackcurrent_08Oct20_sp1.img.xz | dd of=/dev/sda bs=65536
check with fdisk -l ( also check the MD5 sum )
But when starting up, my Raspberry PI4 complains about the FAT partition :
FAT volume not supported
lba: 2048 oem:' ' volume ' '
rsc : 49294 fat-sectors : 47366 c-count 0 c_size 216 rdir 0 r-sec 0
many times and the boot stops !
I have tried to reformat the partition and reput the installer but it is the same result
Where is the problem ?
