I'm trying to set up a pair of Raspberry Pi 3 to work with the NRF905 transciever following this guide. I'm using the same raspbian version that was used in the guide (Raspbian Jessie Lite 2016-11-25) Everything works fine when I do the apt-get update and dist-upgrade. But when I install the kernel with exported symbols, change the /boot/config.txt and then reboot, the Raspberry Pi doesn't boot anymore, the only thing I get it's a Rainbow screen.
I installed the kernel with:
sudo apt-get install linux-image-4.4.0-1-rpi2 linux-image-rpi2-rpfv linux-
headers-rpi2-rpfv
If I pull out the SD card from the Raspberry Pi and edit the config.txt commenting the lines I just added, the Raspberry boots normally, so I'm guessing there must be something wrong with those lines in the config.txt:
# use the rpfv kernel
kernel=vmlinuz-4.4.0-1-rpi2
initrd=initrd.img-4.4.0-1-rpi2 followkernel
I used gparted to format the SD card, and etcher to burn the Jessie image to the SD Card.
Does anyone know what's the issue here?
