Raspberry pi messed up?
-
@darksavior
I've lost count of how many tomes I've done that -
@ddoherty958 It extracts fine here with winrar. Im using chrome on my pc. Try a download manager that can resume downloads. Or try a torrent.
-
I tried again with 7Zip and got no error codes, bu on first boot it went straight to command prompt! I'll try a few things and get back to you.
Raspberry pi B+, official pi power supply, Samsung 64gb SD card, SanDisk 32GB USB drive

You say you are using the official power cable? Do you mean power supply? I suspect your pi may be underpowered if your dc power block isn't supplying enough current to it. I'm not sure what the required/recommended amperage is, but it wouldn't hurt to have at least 2.0 A going into your power cable to the pi...
-
The recommended amount is about 2.5A and I just went on PIsupply.com and typed in raspberry pi power lead. The block seems to be fine, I havn't had any issues with the power, just everything else ;)

@ddoherty958 On first boot, the image will resize the installation file system to fill the disk on the card, then reboot. You need to have a little patience and wait for it to finish the operation, then - after the reboot - you'll be presented with the Emulationstation screen.

Yes, I just rebooted it and it loaded up fine. Fingers crossed it works this time!
