Unable to boot ArchLinuxARM-rpi-3-latest on RPi3

Postby graysky » Sat Jul 08, 2017 2:00 pm

I am unable to boot after creating a sd card from the ArchLinuxARM-rpi-3-latest.tar.gz (date on tarball is 04-July-2017). After partitioning, mounting, extracting, and moving root/boot/* to boot on a new micro SD, the hardware just sits there with only the red light on the RPi3 (Model B Vi.2). I don't see any output to the HDMI to indicate what might be wrong with the rpi-3-latest.tar.gz created image.

If I switch to the sd card containing the rpi-2-latest.tar.gz created image, it boots as expected. Any thoughts are appreciated.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '% md5sum -c ArchLinuxARM-rpi-3-latest.tar.gz.md5
ArchLinuxARM-rpi-3-latest.tar.gz: OK')

With the sd card on my workstation
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '# mount /dev/sdc2 root
# mount /dev/sdc1 root/boot
# lsblk -f | grep sdc

Disregard... failed to set the partition type to VFAT. Works now.
