Greetings! I’ve been having issues running this image on my RPi4. After writing with Win32DiskImager, I always get this error unpacking during first boot. I thought it might be a corrupt image so I downloaded it again and tried writing multiple times to the same card under confirmed working media (SanDisk 1TB Ultra microSDXC). Unfortunately it always leads to the same error. I thought maybe a corrupt SD card but it formats (Fat32format.exe) each time with no issue and I can write other files to it. Any ideas? I’ve always been fond of Rick Dangerous’ work in the past, I’d love to get this to work.

Offline whats the error???
try using raspberry pi imager see if you get the same error (we normally use win32diskimager)

Offline Sorry, I think the attachment failed to upload. First boot looks like it’s unpacking then stops at “End Kernel Panic – Not Syncing: No working init found. Try passing init”
I did use Win32DiskImager which has always worked for me in the past. I’ll try the Raspberry Pi Imager and let you know if that worked.

Offline I figured my 1TB SD Card was corrupted or something so I tried flashing a 1TB NVMe drive and configured my RPi4 to boot from SSD. It still does not boot this image. Has anyone confirmed that this image is working for the RPi4?

Offline Confirmed working with the WD SN550, the WD SN850 draws too much power for the RPi4 to boot. So I can’t say for sure if the newer SN570 would work for this build, it may draw too much power. I think SN570 is probably fine since it’s also Interface PCIe Gen 3×4 NVMe; if someone gets it working please confirm. The 1TB Sandisk SD card that was confirmed working by developer did not work for me. I purchased brand new but there’s a possibility that it corrupted during writing. SD Cards corrupt pretty easily. I’d recommend using the SN550 for this image, you will need to use the RPI Image Writer tool to write a bootloader update to an SD card to flash the RPi4 firmware to boot from USB first.
Excellent build overall, the best one yet for the RPi.
Hi,
I am having the exact same issue (End Kernel Panic), but, i have used Rufus to extract the image.
I extracted the image onto a 1tb sandisk micro SD card.
Thanks,
