Hi I have a pi-400 running $ uname -a Linux larosa-400R64 5.10.92-v8+ #1514 SMP PREEMPT Mon Jan 17 17:39:38 GMT 2022 aarch64 GNU/Linux

And I'm trying to get the 32 bit full desk top in Pi-Power--Tools.

I just get a black screen with no error indicated.

I presume you are using Pi Power Tools to boot an image in a virtual desktop environment. Behind the black box you will notice a navy-blue terminal window. This is the virtual desktop's main TTY console. If the username and password is not pi and raspberry, then you will have to manually login to the console before the desktop session will appear.

If the OS you're trying to run doesn't have a desktop session, then you can either ignore the black window, or go into Pi Power Tools settings and make it boot to CLI.

Could you send a screenshot of what you see?

Hi @Botspot,

While the issue of 64-bit versions may not be the core of the problem @AZdave is running into, I thought this may be a good spot to mention that a 64-bit flavor would be nice. I kept running into issues before I realized that the compiled executables in ./functions (buffer and zerofree) are armhf executables and thus fail to load & run on aarch64.

In particular, buffer failing prevents the "Flash" operation from working.

Cheers & thanks for the fantastic tool!
