Hi all,
I want to run openSUSE Tumbleweed on a new Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+.
Using the aarch64 DVD Image (Snapshot 20200528) stored on a USB stick, I boot the Pi3 and go through the motions of installing the Server role onto a blank SD card in the mmc slot. The installation completes normally, except that it fails to reboot properly afterwards. (It hangs with a black screen showing just the mouse pointer, and the pointer still moves according to mouse movement.)
After powering down, removing the USB stick, and powering on, the Pi3 completely refuses to boot. It doesn't even show the "rainbow screen" before boot. Seems quite dead, actually.
If you don't see a rainbow screen, that means that the system is not able to find the bootcode.bin
Can you double check that the file is on your SD card?
You didn't say where I'm supposed to find it, but I assume it's meant to be in the boot partition (i.e., the first vfat partition)? This is what it looks like:
Yes, you are right.
# mount -o ro /dev/sdn1 /mnt # ls -R /mnt /mnt: EFI
/mnt/EFI: BOOT
/mnt/EFI/BOOT: BOOTAA64.EFI grub.cfg
That looks like a problem of the installer then, because it does not install the firmware and DTB files we need to boot.
@Guillaume, what do you think?
We need to prepare a uSD card with firmware as described here: https://en.opensuse.org/HCL:Raspberry_Pi3#installing_openSUSE_using_standard... But I think some work were done to get rid of this and just use the ISO. But I may be wrong. Andreas may know. Cheers, Guillaume
