Installation problem to new pi board (Model B)
Are you sure it's firm ware and bit the install. I had the same issue when using the xbian installer for windows. I switched to using win32 disc imager and the base image. It worked straight away

RE: Installation problem to new pi board (Model B)
did any of you with this new RPi actually tried what was mentioned ??? as without this info it would be impossible to help, unless someone wants to donate the newest RPi to our devs team

When I use the Xbian windows installer (or the image), there is no /boot folder on the SD card. If I just copy all the Hexxeh files to the SD, the SD card is too small. I'm open to suggestions on how to get it working, without you having to make changes to Xbian itself. |

RE: Installation problem to new pi board (Model B)
Is there a way to tell if the "Samsung/Hynix" chip is installed by a software command? If not, it's going to be difficult
One assumes the firmware will be downwardly compatible and eventually will make it into ... say Beta 2. I also think the main Xbian download page needs to be modified to mention this and possibly add a route to a fix.

I don't think this is a marvell chip - the logo is different Marvell chip and they specialise in processors, not ram. It's a Crucial chip - or better known as Micron Micron Chip logo Here she is Micron D9HQN Have the Chinese tried to pull a fast one :-) Please read before you post How to post a log file If you liked my help, click on "Thanks" to show your appreciation.

Re: Installation problem to new pi board (Model B)
Good work IriDium on finding out it was a Micron chip and not Marvell.
I knew firmware would need an update but wasn't sure about the kernel. Mystery solved. @mk01 I would pull Doms' git and hot fix the latest available Xbian image with the latest Pi firmware.

RE: Installation problem to new pi board (Model B)
I gave it another shot with copying the Hexxeh files to the SD card.
The first time I used the windows installer and chose Xbian Beta 1.1. The copied the files to the SD card. When powering on the RPi, ACT blinks 1 long time. Screen stays black with a non blinking cursor in the top left corner. I then gave it another shot with Xbian Beta 1.0 (and copying the files). Same thing happens. Now, when I use Xbian Alpha 4 (and copying the files), it does some completely different things! Text starts to roll down like it is doing its job like it's supposed to. It Expands, Reboots, goes black, boots, blinking cursor in top left, and then gives a black screen (no non-blinking cursor either). LNK keeps blinking. While doing all it's stuff, it does give an error: could not insert 'snd_bmc2835': exec format error |

RE: Installation problem to new pi board (Model B)
I have here one of the first Rpi's bought in February 2012 and one I bought yesterday. The same SD with Xbian does run on the original rPi but won't boot on the newest.

Re: Installation problem to new pi board (Model B)
Please download these two files and copy them to /boot (overwriting the old)
https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/raw/master/boot/bootcode.bin https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/raw/master/boot/start.elf Let me know if this allows your Pi to boot please.

RE: Installation problem to new pi board (Model B)
OK, thanks.
That did the trick! Btw, these files where at the root, not in /boot. |
