OSX Installer broken, can't boot from latest image
I just got my rpi 2, and I'm trying to install xbian on it.
Unfortunately, the installer fails to run now... I'm getting a weird /bin/sh error, although the installer doesn't appear to be a shell script: Screenshot I'm running OSX Yosemite 10.10.3. Then I figured I could just try directly loading the latest img file form the website, but that's not working either. Maybe I'm just doing it wrong... I used dd to write the img file directly to my SD card, but it doesn't boot. Also, I noticed that it only partitioned about 1 GB of my 16 GB SD card, which makes sense, since that's the size of the img file... obviously I need a different method for writing the img to an SD card...I guess that's what the installer is good for...or would be, if it worked... ![]() |

RE: OSX Installer broken, can't boot from latest image
dd always works, the installers just do what dd does, it is a very low level call.
on osx, you probably just have to go into disk management and unmount the drive (not eject it) and double check it is rdisk2 and not a different number (for example if you had a usb drive plugged in, your xbmc card could be rdisk3.) Derek |

RE: OSX Installer broken, can't boot from latest image
I've used dd to write bootable SD cards many times, but the xbian image I tried would not boot. A 1GB partition was created on the card after writing, so it seemed to have worked, but it wouldn't boot.
I didn't investigate it any further, since the windows installer worked later...just reporting it... Maybe when I tried the windows installer it downloaded a newer img file ...dunno... |
