Support for Raspberry Pi B+ v1.2? #9

Open switchmaxfx opened 3 years ago

Recently tried installing tokencast on an older pi b+ v1.2 and since the install it makes the pi run extremely slow and stays in the boot process. Is this supported for older pis?

Take a look at the options it actually sets in the PI config.txt file. I ran into the same issue you are describing here on my 3b + and figured I'd try a 4b.... Ran into the SAME ISSUE there..

Finally I mounted the SD card post install and disabled all three of the options it sets in the config.txt file (it adds them to the end of the existing file) and it started working without issue, at least on the pi4. I haven't gone back to the 3b+ to confirm, but I suspect it would work there now too.

Installed on a Pi Zero 2w yesterday, had the same issue. Wouldn't boot at all after running the curl command to install tokencast.

Mounted the SD card on a working PC, deleted the three lines tokencast added at the bottom of the config file, and it now boots fine. This is a pretty serious bug across at least 3 different models of Raspberry Pi, which bricks the pi until it's boot drive can be repaired via a second system.

Needs an official fix instead.
