Hi Clockwork Pi.

I’m having difficulty upgrading my Devterm, and uconsole, as follows:

flashed OS onto Lexar 256Gb micro sd, just following the recipe. Removed 16Gb ssd card from Devterm, installed 256Gb - won’t boot. Tried it in my uconsole - won’t boot. Since I did everything right as usual, it must be the Amazon cards I got.

Ordered PNY 128Gb micro sd card from Amazon, flashed per recipe - Devterm won’t boot with it, neither will the uconsole.

Assuming it was the card again, I ordered a pre-flashed 128Gb card from vilros. Surely that would fix it - alas know. Neither Devterm nor uconsole will boot!

What am i doing wrong? please tell me i just need to press some reset button or short some jumpers or whatever…

Devterm and uconsole both have aarch64, Cortex-A53.

Best Regards, Mark

PS. I am embarrassed about my pompous username

If I’m reading that right is sounds like you’re trying to you a stock image from Raspberry Pi, is that the case?

If so it won’t work the DevTerm and uConsole needs drivers for the screen to function. Here’s a up to date image based on the official RPi-OS I have made for the DevTerm and uConsole.
