Berryboot not booting #444

Open ItsVince123 opened 6 years ago

ItsVince123 commented 6 years ago

I am using berryboot for a few days now, there is raspbian, openelec and retropie on it.But it won't boot anymore, its just the rainbow splash screen and then just black screen, I have a sensehat on it too, and is is the rainbow thing showing while the screen on my monitor is black. Is the only option reinstalling berryboot, because I don't want to lose my files. All help is appreciated. Vince

If you copy the Berryboot files over the FAT partition again, you should get an option to "use existing files" during installation.

YMMV if the contents of the SD card is corrupt though.

Make an image(img) of your card and write it to another empty/formatted memory card if the problem continues then follow the advice from maxnet. copy all berryboot files from inside the berryboot-20170527-pi0-pi1-pi2-pi3.zip archive to the visible from windows fat partition overwriting all the files, and in installation select the option "use existing files"

Thanks, I think this helps my issue at https://github.com/maxnet/berryboot/issues/449, although it's too late to test it.
