My Raspberry Pi B+ is not booting
  • Eidrian1789
    Good morning,

    I’m new on raspberry pi I make some research on how to install Raspberry Pi onto an sd card using Win32 Disk Imager. I’m using a san disk ultra micro sdhc 8gb card. When I insert the card onto my Pi I did not boot at all, I switch to the card that it comes with the Pi with raspbian and it boot it without no problem at all. I try creating an image with noobs as well but it didn’t work either but the card is brand new and the computer recognizes it without a problem and it lets me write the image and add files to it. Also format it to FAT 32 but nothing is working.
    Any help will be more than welcome. I download the image 7.10 if I’m not mistaking.

    Thanks in advance,

    can you verify that the image is actually being written to the sd card (IE - make sure it's not in write protected mode)?

    Jajaja I’m not that noob XD. I’m using the image file. I will try with the beta file and I will keep you posted. Noup is not being written in secure mode I tested it with raspbmc and it work. I’m downloading the beta 0.8 beta 7. I will let you both know how it goes.

    Hey. I have a question. So I got piplay 8.7 running beautifully and I updated it from the advmenu and now it auto boots to the pi desktop. Anyone know how to get it back to auto boot piplay? Also I am using the jamma board and non of the buttons work to select roms. I have to use a keyboard. Am I doing something wrong or is it not supported? Thanks.

    I just tried it and nano ~/.profile takes me to a blank screen with some options at the bottom like Get help, write out, read file etc. But the rest of the screen is blank. when I first turn on the pi i see
    OSError: [errno 2] no such file or directory: '/home/pi/pimame/roms/zxspectrum'
    I don't know if that helps at all. Thanks.

    you need to create the zxspectrum folder then.

    mkdir /home/pi/pimame/roms/zxspectrum
