Trying to Install Raspberry Pi OS on a Kano computer
December 3, 2023, 22:16
Hi! Today I tried to install Raspberry Pi OS on the Kano computer. On the box, it said the computer is a Raspberry Pi 3, so I thought it was just a Raspberry Pi 3 with a custom OS, so I flashed Raspberry Pi OS to the SD Card, and so far its been 15 minutes and the screen isn't giving a signal. I'm not familiar with Raspberry Pi, so can someone please help me?
How did you flash it?
I used the Raspberry Pi Imager.
Do the green LED flash in a pattern, see https://support.pishop.ca/article/33-raspberry-pi-act-led-error-patterns
It has a solid red light, and i didn't realize that this was a Raspberry Pi3B, not a regular Raspberry Pi 3. I'm gonna try using this forum post. I'll keep you updated if it works.
Red LED = Power on. Its the green LED that is of any interest !
So I found out the problem. It was that I was using a 64 GB SD Card, and I didn't know that it needs to run on FAT32, so I tried a 32 GB SD Card and it worked.
