That is really strange!
Hi,
Happy new Year !
Do you have any updates regarding the AIO V2? Will the orders be shipping soon?
My order number is #4876.
Thanks in advance.
The Upgrade kit is awesome. I am leaving it installed and going to put the AIO kit in my new uConsole when it shows up 
. The only issue I am having is that the Li polymer battery I ordered from Ali Express are subpar. They die at 60ish% under load. Need to find a quality Li polymer battery or a way to shoe horn two of these batteries in the uConsole in parallel.
I broke down, and ordered a full set of upgrades.. got my upgrade board.. the CM5 for it.. just waiting on the AIO v2ā¦ after i waited over a year for the uconsoleā¦ iām sure i can handle a little wait for the upgrades. excited to test it out.. maybe a usb-c 4g modem in the future to match the wifi card form factor. can hardly wait to mess with it.

I have the exact same problem with my CM-4 Adapter. So i removed the adapter and replaced it with a 1.5 mm copper plate inside the back case for better cooling.
I assume they must be Still Boxing AIO v2 and sending it to the delivery place,
Because mines still says Confirmed.
Hi guysā¦.
Did anyone get the uConsole to boot from the NVME, with SD card removed?
iāve been struggling for 5+ hours trying to get it to work.
- I flashed rexās trixie image (the one that works on the sd card) to the nvme from my mac
- removed sd card and boot from nvme
- i get 5 ACT led flashes on the nvme board (boot failure), and nothing else.
I already did:
- write the 0xf461 boot order
- made sure i have dtparam=pciex1
- I can boot from the SD and read / write files to the nvme
- made sure I have the correct partition type, boot flag, etc
I have no other ideas. Does the nvme board route the disk to the 1st lane of the cm5? If so, it might not be possible to boot from it, as the rpi expects the disk on lane 0.

I can only boot from the NVMe even if I have the SD card first in the boot order and a bootable SD card in place. Without the SD card, I still boot from the NVMe. I canāt boot from the SD card at all if I have a bootable NVMe card in place.

Iām just hoping this gets resolved by the time I get my nvme board
I can confirm this also.
Have you run āraspi-configā from the command line and set the boot order? Just look around in the menus for that, I canāt give a better pointer because Iām not next to my uConsole atm.
I have mine booting from SD-Card first with a NVME fallback. So if I want to try some new OS, I just insert the SD-Card, otherwise it boots from the standard Trixie install on the SSD.
I checked out raspi-config and there is an option under advanced options and then you select boot order. My question is if I change the boot order and it doesnāt work how to I revert back to the original boot order?
yes. Iāve tried the raspi-config method, but also the direct command: sudo rpi-eeprom-config -e, and set the boot order to 0xf461 (sd, nvme, network, repeat).
Is there anyone here, that can confirm he managed to get the uconsole to boot, only with the nvme connected (no sd card), with the hackergadgetās nvme extension board?
Yes. I can boot Trixie from NVMe. I have a 2TB card installed on hackergadgetās card.
could you tell me the steps you went through?
i donāt understand why itās not working.
Mine boots from the NVME SSD with no problems. I just can not boot another OS from SD card at this moment. I am working on it.
All I did was to hook up the NVMe to a PC, used Raspberry Pi Imager to flash the uConsole version of Trixie to it, then installed the card on the expansion board. It boots from there. In fact, I was having trouble booting from the SD card but it turns out to have been a faulty SD card.
try using the SD Card copy app and copy from your SD to your NVME drive, it should show if you have it installed.
