Certain OS Work While Others Won’t For CM4

uConsole
1

So I have a CM4 with a 256GB Micro SD and for some reason I can run Kali but if I try to flash any from the raspberry pi imager for the CM4 board I get zip nada just flash when I hit power and then nothing. I’ve ran Parrot with zero issues, but I was wanting something different with the option to game on it as well. So I had been trying to find something that would meet my needs and had this issue. anyone else have it or know of a solution?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

You’re not trying to use the imager to write customized data (such as WiFi name and password) are you?

If you’re trying to flash images from imager and not ones you’ve downloaded from the forums or GitHub, they won’t work. The uConsole needs drivers that are not in stock images.
You can find a number of images for the uConsole by searching around the forum.

Most definitely not, sir. Just changing operating system.
