Raspberry Pi Zero W?

DigitalMonkey

@Fruitybit Let us know how the new image goes with the Zero W.

Still waiting for the postie to bring mine :)

@DigitalMonkey lol!(( what a time to run out of sd cards!! Damn forward planning brain fail.

tashman

I'm trying it now. It is quite slow (I'm using a 4Gb class 2 card) and it's hanging at:-

[FAILED] "Failed to start apply_noobs_os_config.service"

tashman

It didn't respond after 6-7 minutes so I killed it.....

This is using the 4.1.17 image that Buzz provided by the way. The zip is about half the size of the normal 4.1 zero image, is that to be expected?

@BuZz Thanks for those. I'll try them tomorrow and report back.

chubsta

what image should we apply the fix to - Buzz's one or an existing image available on the rp site?

@chubsta also could this be done on a Pi 3 as I no longer have access to the older pi zero

@thething1979 sorry when I wrote older I meant any other pi that wasn't the one that wouldn't boot.

thething1979

@jacklaidlaw cool, will give it a try in the morning

BuZz

Something may have gone wrong with the image generation - I will check / confirm.

BuZz

They were not correct - I'm uploading new images now.

BuZz

Please try the new images

tashman

@BuZz - the new 4.1.18 image is working fine now on the Zero W. I haven't tried the Berryboot one. Many thanks for this.

@tashman This is great news. I bought a couple to test, but they haven't arrived yet.

Flavor

@BuZz Thanks for fixing them so quickly.

spagbol

@BuZz Not tried any games yet but the new image installs, wi-fi and Bluetooth both working. Thanks!

tashman

@spagbol I've played a selection of MAME games and all seems well. Yep, WiFi looking good - no more struggling with my dodgy dongle!

tashman

Just to add - it's running just fine (so far anyway) powered by a 1 amp TV USB port.
