Power is good - I've tested with a voltmeter. According to this link, the SD card image is not written properly yet:
The Raspberry Pi cannot find a valid image on the SD card. Check card is inserted correctly.
The OK LED does flashes once. Is this to be expected if SD image is bad? I think this is because I took the SD card that was formatted FAT95, and dd
is choking on it somehow. I will delete all /dev/sdb
partitions via fdisk
.
I'm pretty sure this will get the SD card happy again (at work now - so, have to wait a few hours to test), and dd
can then write the image cleanly to a blank SD card. Just curious if anyone knows for sure that OK LED does flashes green once in such cases while the Pwr LED stays solid red, but no video, when there is bad SD disk image inserted.
Thanks for any ideas....
