Berry Boot USB .IMG issues

[Vadero66]

I have a raspberry pi 4 8gb model B. I am running berry boot. When I select my USB to find the flavor of OS I want to install, it displays nothing but system volume. I jave use pi images ro format 4 USB devices of different manufacturers. It still won't display any .img files.

Hi, The drive must be fat32 formatted to see it.

Yes it is fat 32 and formatted by the pi imaging tool. I have tried a 32gb 64gb 128gb USB drive. All images are squashed.

Press the add os option and keep the left click pressed until you see the add from usb option

I have done this and it shows my USB drive. It also shows my file system within the drive. I can create multiple sub folders and they all display correctly on the berry boot menue. The problem is that the image files do not display. I have tried 10 different images and non display.

Are the images with the img extension?

Eg:. Raspbian.img

Or you put them compressed in the drive?

Eg: Raspbian.img.gz

If they are in capital.IMG put them in lower case .img

[Vadero66]

Yes

Hi, first of all - thanks for this great tool!

@Vadero66 I ran into the same exact issue. I was able to restore my .img from USB via accessing the Backup section. It was the last option where I could choose to restore a img from USB, there it worked just fine for me.

Somehow the add OS option didn't show me a the restore from USB either.

Need to hold down your mouse button longer over the "add OS" button.

Ok, I will try that with my next install.
