I just wanted to post this short how to as I am new to the uConsole, new to the CM4 and the last time I used a Linux live CD on a PC was over 30 years ago.
So here it goes:
- Find a usable sd card, mine is from a GoPro camera as I did not buy a new one yet. It is a 32GB card.
- You can go here and download the firmware you like, I am currently trying them all out.
- ClockworkPi - Google Drive
- Once downloaded extract the folder with WinRAR.
- Download the balenaEtcher from here: https://etcher.balena.io/
- After installing it, plug in your sd card, mine is plugged in via a USB hub, start the balena app, select the firmware you want, chose the sd card and click flash.
- After it is flashed, remove the sd card, insert into your uConsole, power it on and enjoy your first time using the uConsole.
- It is very easy and I just love the uConsole, as I am sure you do as well.
