Trouble booting sarpi5 installer on my rpi5
 

Hi, recently got my raspberry pi 5 (ordered from raspberrypi.dk) and the boot end with a kernel panic :/ I don't have such a pb with my rpi4..

Je suis désolé, mais le logiciel SARPi5 était une première "meilleure estimation" car je n'ai pas encore de Raspberry Pi 5 pour tester. Espérons qu'après le Nouvel An, celui-ci arrivera.

When does the boot process panic and do you see any error message output? It might be helpful to diagnose and locate what's causing the problem(s).

Hi Exaga! You don't need to speak in french :)
I think the pb is in initrd.gz, kernel is booting but setup not.

OK, Try this...

Rename the initrd.gz file to: initramfs_2712

Rename kernel8.img file to: kernel_2712.img

Remove the following lines from config.txt file:
Put these lines in place of those you have just removed in config.txt file:
Reboot and see if that makes any difference. if it doesn't then I would say it's a module mismatch with the RPi5 architecture - which means I made a monumental clusterfudge of compiling them. :doh:

Just tested the modifications and the pb remains.. Sorry :(

I'm sorry too that I cannot help you more. Without seeing when this kernel panic occurs, and/or the results of it, I'm as much in the dark as you are, mon ami. :confused:

Assume this is with the latest version of PI OS (Required for RPI5)? You've tried the obvious of reinstalling the PI OS on the SD card? Or then installing on a different SD Card? Same results? Just some thoughts.

Oh sorry, I was assuming a 'standard' install. Disregard :rolleyes: . All I use is PI OS with my RPIs.

Yeah dodoLQ was using an installer for Slackware AArch64 that I built before the device was released to the public so there was a fair amount of supposition and guesswork involved in it. I think the problems were due to the new firmware and config.txt settings/requirements for the Raspberry Pi 5 device, but that's par for the course with these devices as there's a lot of unconventional aspects about them.
