64GB SD card, Etcher, no IP after boot #241

Closed attila-kocsis closed 5 years ago

attila-kocsis commented 5 years ago

I have a 64GB Sony SD card, on the latest nightly build, flashed with Etcher. After the boot process the RPI does not get an IP address from DHCP. Tested on 2 different RPIs.

However if I do the same on the 16GB SD card (all the configuration is identical) it works as intended. Any tips why this is happening?

Does your card model appear in the list https://elinux.org/RPi_SD_cards ?

attila-kocsis commented 5 years ago

Not exactly, it is a SR-64UY2. There are SR-64UY and SR-64UY2A/TQ in the list.

guysoft commented 5 years ago

64UY2A/TQ should be close enough. Does it work with normal latest Raspbian?

attila-kocsis commented 5 years ago

Will check and get back with the results.

attila-kocsis commented 5 years ago

I flashed the latest Raspbian, it boots and after I configure the same network it gets an IP address.

guysoft commented 5 years ago

Ok, what version of FullPageOS are you using?

attila-kocsis commented 5 years ago

The latest nightly (0.10.0)

guysoft commented 5 years ago

Latest nightly is untested, please try stable release and if that does not work, the non-accelerated version.

attila-kocsis commented 5 years ago

OK, will test it and get back with the results.

attila-kocsis commented 5 years ago

Tested it with the latest stable build (0.9.0) and the results are the same. RPI boots, but does not get IP address and shows ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED message in Chromium.

FullpageOS is nearly the same as raspbian, there should not be any change n how internet connection is set compared to raspbian. The only major difference is that you can edit wpa-supplicant (aka fullpageos-wpa-supplicant.txt) directly and not set it via the GUI.

You did not explain how you set your wifi using raspbian - how are you doing that?

attila-kocsis commented 5 years ago

I have done it through to UI. The Raspbian OS booted up, I clicked on the network icon, selected the proper SSID, added the password and done. It received an IP address through DHCP and everything worked.

guysoft commented 5 years ago

Ok, so it seems you are setting the internet differently in raspbian than in FullPageOS. So I can't really compare to that. Just confirm is not a hardware issue. You are saying you set fullpageos-wpa-supplicant.txt using a different SD card, and that it failed to connect. Did you try the non-accelerated version? Will note at this point I am making pure guesses, I have no idea what is going on.

Ok, thanks for the help so far. I won't invest time on this anymore as it is not a blocker for me now, will use 16GB SD cards.
