RC2 not installing - flashing cursor
Hi,
From using xbian-installer.exe under Windows 8 to initially configure the 8GB SD card 1) I can install xbian Beta2 - but in use the video playback keeps halting, displays blue screen, and when video plays there is a "snow" of a few, small, white lines across the image. 2) I cannot install xbian RC2. I insert the SD card successfully used for xbian Beta2 and power up the rpi. The display just hangs at a black screen with a flashing cursor in the top left hand corner. I am currently (1 September 2014) installing using Raspbmc - and seems ok Regards, Clive |

RE: RC2 not installing - flashing cursor
You need to comment out the initramfs value from /boot/config.txt and your Pi should boot fine.

I have the same issue. RPi B (old one with less memory). I replaced RC2 with beta2 and it started. Now running upgrade.

RE: RC2 not installing - flashing cursor
Could you please explain reasoning behind commenting out initramfs line? It looks the same in both beta2 and RC2 and former work, when later no.

RE: RC2 not installing - flashing cursor
Beside the firmware inserting the value itself I have no idea.

It's because the same busybox issue. Also affected the initramfs. A new RC3 image will arrive soon.

RE: RC2 not installing - flashing cursor
Shouldn't the image be removed until then? Seems the best way to prevent further issues
