Firmware installation problem #8

Closed apslowik closed 2 years ago

apslowik commented 2 years ago

Hi,

I cannot install firmware, because the fw memory does not show. No matter whether I boot from the official Amber USB stick or I create my own bootable USB stick, the problem is always the same. This is the screen I end up with:

Step 1: You need to delete the top one.

Step 2: Create a new partition of about 500 MB

step 3: SInce you only used 500 MB of the top one, there should still be like 28.5 Gb left to create a second partition.

Step 4: follow the steps from amber then on.

Basically there is already a partition there. You need to delete it and separate it. Hope on the discord if you need us to walk you through it: https://discord.gg/GRKUWb5B

Thanks for prompt support. That worked for me, so installation went on, reported 100% complete, rebooted. Now PC is dead, blank screen, nothing. How to reboot from USB now? Is there a link to documentation for that motherboard available?

Working for me know. Seems that something fails if boot partition is 512MB or larger. Keeping button pressed when connecting power allows for reinstallation :-)
